Becoming a Preferred Vessel

The Book of Daniel reveals that Daniel enjoyed a distinct preference over the nation's presidents and princes. Daniel was preferred because of the exceptional quality and nature of the Spirit within him. Today, Prophet Hari is introducing us to a lifestyle that can transform us into preferred vessels.King Darius recognized the need to raise princes and presidents under his authority to ensure the efficient governance of the nation's provinces. As a result, he elevated Daniel to a position above them. Daniel's role went beyond being a prophet to the nation; he was elevated to the position of president and ruler. With the help of the Holy Spirit, Daniel spent years diligently cultivating his own spirit. As a result of this transformation, his spirit achieved a level of excellence worthy of recognition.Daniel's greatness wasn't merely a result of divine grace or a bestowed gift. Observing Daniel's life reveals that, at an early age, he vowed to abstain from defiling himself. His exceptional journey commenced from the time he made this decision, setting him on a trajectory toward greatness. Dear child of God, Daniel serves as a model we should all strive to emulate, for within him resided an excellent spirit.Excellence can often be practiced situationally, but Daniel's distinction lies in possessing an inherent excellent spirit. Unlike managing excellence, Daniel became excellence itself, developing his spirit to the point where operating at a high level was instinctive. Daniel's preference among others stemmed from the fact that he possessed an excellent spirit—a level of excellence that transcended mere visual assessments. It became evident that whenever chaos arose, Daniel consistently managed it with unparalleled excellence.There are individuals who have become such perfected spirits that when you arrive in their presence, you behold excellence.  Every word spoken by Jesus emanated life, as He is life.Striving to move beyond the perception of an excellent spirit to actually becoming one is crucial. In God, there exists the power for transformation; it is His desire that you not remain as the prodigal son but that you be transformed into the rightful inheritor of His promises.The pitfalls to avoid in your quest :-  Ensure that your conduct is not driven by fear.- Strive for excellence not solely due to passion, but because it aligns with your inherent functioning. For Daniel, it wasn't a matter of preference; it was an integral part of his identity.- Don't let your quest for excellence make you legalistic. Legalism kills intimacy.Growth is effortless but it requires intentionality. In an ideal environment, a seed thrives and grows, as growth is a result of being planted in the right environment.As the body of Christ, resolve in your heart to intentionally grow in grace each day until you evolve into a glorious and preferred vessel. Yield to the spirit of God and begin to function in the spirit of excellence.
