ENLARGEMENT WITHIN TRANSLATES TO ENLARGEMET WITHOUT.

You have the ability to choose, in every situation, for every moment, how you will respond to any given issues.

You can choose to respond depending on your mood, depending on what "button" is being pushed, depending on the way we’ve responded to similar stimuli in the past.

You can be enlarged and choose to respond differently - in accordance with the principles taught in the word of GOD and in accordance with the most precious vision or dream God has placed in you. Even if that dream is so far from being a reality at this point.

People who are expecting enlargement work at changing their present reality and in the process they attract the desired future. You will notice people who are small by how they spend their time and energy focusing on less important things at the expense of important ones.

They major on minor things and minor on major things.

START WHERE YOU ARE WITH WHAT IS AVAILABLE

Start the process of enlargement within the circles you can directly influence at the moment, expansion will come at Gods appointed time.

1Sa 17:17 And Jesse said unto David his son, Take now for thy brethren an ephah of this parched corn, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren; 18 And carry these ten cheeses unto the captain of their thousand, and look how thy brethren fare, and take their pledge. 19 Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines. 20 And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the trench, as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battle.

David’s process of enlargement is brought into effect through this command from his father.David rose up early and left the sheep with a keeper. He is leaving the familiar territory to run an errand.

1sam 17-25 And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel. 26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God? : 27 And the people answered him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that killeth him.28 And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle. 29 And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause? 30 And he turned from him toward another, and spake after the same manner: and the people answered him again after the former manner.

David comes face to face with an opportunity of a lifetime and seizes it.While his brothers and the others sat without a clue whatsoever.

David derives his confidence from some major lessons he learnt in his young life. In his small circles of influence which no one paid attention to or no one cared to reward he built a pattern which given the right opportunity would propel him to heights of success.

And it did, someone once said that luck happens when preparation meets opportunity.

It is likely that when he killed a bear while herding his fathers sheep no one noticed. [Preparation].

It is likely that when he killed a lion while herding his fathers sheep no one noticed. [Preparation]

When he comes into this Goliath scenario, His enlarged capacity in obscurity was now about to bring him to significance. His territory is about to be enlarged. He puts all his trust in God who gave him victory when he was a nobody. This difference this time is this, there is going to be a reward, a big one.

Listen to me; be the person you want to be in future when no one is looking then trust God that an opportunity will come that will elevate you to your dreams.

Many of us have been distracted and made ineffective people because of the busyness of life. Before we know it, we've lost hold of our soul.

We fall prey to the patterns of the materialistic world. [The one with the most toys wins. or the most power or prestige]

We take that road and begin to realize its goal is but a mirage, but it's so hard to turn back. We find ourselves frustrated that we aren't, we can't, be the people we really want to be and we project our anger upon those closest to us, those who we really wish to nurture and love.

Life has circular patterns which must be mastered and reproduced at the appropriate moment.

Become all you want to be when no one is looking, destiny will present you the opportunity when everyone is looking.
