MEDITATION VERSE  

“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; Before you were born, I  sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations”.

How can you identify your sphere of influence? Several characteristics define  and delineate your area of influence: 

Ownership, authority, and identity. With ownership and authority comes  influence and impact. Within the boundaries of your sphere of influence, you  are an authority, a force to reckon with. It is where you have been called to  subdue and dominate. Which area of human endeavor do you wield the most  authority and influence? Where do you exert maximum influence? 

Your allotted sphere delineates responsibilities and privileges such as  recognition, power, and honor. You are mostly celebrated there because it is  where you are making the most impact. Which area of endeavor are you often  called upon to serve in? 

Your sphere of influence provides an avenue for you to multiply your resources  and be blessed. It is a fulfilment of God’s promises in your life. It is an avenue for  God to release His blessings on you. Where in your life do you see much growth  and fruitfulness, even when you exert very little efforts? 

Your sphere of influence is your Rehoboth, which is ‘a place of reduced conflict’  (Gen 26.22). Since it is your inheritance, God will fight for you, against any  contender. Where do you exert the least effort, yet reap the most gain?  

Lastly, your sphere of influence is your ‘point of reference’. It is the place where  you will become known for something. In Numbers, chapter 22, Balak the king  wanted Balaam to curse the people of Israel because he was afraid of their  prosperity. He sent messengers to Balaam saying “for I know that he whom you  bless is blessed. On which soil are you leaving the most footprints? Where are 

you leaving a legacy? 

Your answers to the above questions should lead you to your designated sphere  of influence and point you towards your dream.
