Episode 177: Influencing Others
1. You are already influencing others — be intentional about it.
You ARE the Light (Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden.):
Influence is not optional for believers — it’s inherent
Your presence matters in every environment.
2. Influence isn't about title or platform, but purpose and impact.
Influence Requires Intentional Living (Ephesians 5:15-16 - So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise.16 Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.):
Busyness can distract us from divine opportunities.
Ask: “Who has God placed in front of me today?”
Influence is a calling, not a coincidence.
3. God uses everyday moments to make eternal impact.
Every Role Holds Influence:
Whether you’re a business leader, peer, parent, or grandparent — your example speaks louder than your words.
Faithfulness in the small things creates lasting impact.
Leadership begins with how you treat those in front of you. (James 4:17) Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.
4. Legacy is built through faithfulness, not fame.
Influence Often Grows in the Quiet (Galatians 6:9 - So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.):
Legacy isn’t always seen in the moment — it’s reaped in the future.
Like Lois and Eunice, your faith can ripple for generations.
God uses ordinary moments to grow extraordinary legacies.
5. Influence should point others to Jesus, not ourselves.
Reflect Christ in All You Do (Matthew 5:16 - In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.):
Influence isn’t self-promotion; it’s God-glorifying.
Shine through service, love, and presence.
Don’t underestimate your role – even hidden seeds produce lasting fruit.
6. Your circle is your calling — pay attention to who’s around you.
Be Present in Your Circle:
Who’s watching you? Who needs encouragement, prayer, or wisdom?
Small moments can be sacred assignments.
Stay faithful, stay present, and trust God to multiply your influence.
7. In order for you to have a good influence, be careful about who you allow to influence you. Be careful about who you allow to speak into your life. Your influence will grow as you allow others to pour into you.
We are praying for you as you intentionally influence others and leave a lasting impact in the lives of others.
