NO TITLE NECESSARY FOR GOD TO SHOW UP!
Some people think because one has a fancy title or is a "big shot" in some way, that God uses them, but this is not true. There were much higher callings during the days of Jesus than being a shepherd! God isn’t looking for big shots, but rather uses the lowest of the low to fulfill his world-changing, eternal purposes. It doesn't matter what your financial or social status is, how short or tall, big or small you are, but rather if you are someone who is yielded to God and willing for his purpose to flow through you!

God was not going to allow this humble, servant to miss the great calling on his life. Don’t ever be fooled by external looks, talent or titles; God is looking for a qualified heart! If God can show up to shepherds out in the field; if he can call the shepherd boy, David, out of the fields, then he can show up to you at your home or at your job or anywhere else! Are you ready? God is looking for an appointment with you! And…
