THEME: GIFT FROM GOD
Romans 12:6-8
“We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.”
INSIGHT
-We are all created differently with unique gifts that the Holy Spirit bestows unto us. Gifts like prophecy are given to us according to ones faith and before one receives it, he/she must pursue love and desire spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 14:1). Gifts like serving, teaching, encouraging, giving, leading and showing mercy; should also be done cheerfully with love. Other spiritual gifts include:- word of wisdom, word of knowledge, faith, working of miracles, discerning of spirits, speaking in different kinds of tongues and the interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The Holy Spirit gives us these gifts as He pleases according to what we are destined to do on earth. It is by the grace of God that the Holy Spirit gives us these gifts and the same grace to use them effectively for His kingdom. Sometimes we veer-off our paths and let other preoccupations distract us. Each one has a purpose geared towards the advancement of the kingdom of God. God reminds us to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all other things will be added unto us. These gifts enable us to accomplish our purposes here on earth and anyone who puts his hand on the plough and looks back is not for His kingdom.
