GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

GIFTS AND TALENTS

GIFTS AND TALENTS       

Matthew 25:14-30
Devotional Verse: -“And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey” (V. 15)



   Everyone made by the Lord is packaged with talents. It is not easy to find someone with one talent. Most people are multi-talented. Talents and gifts are what God has built in us to become our focus of passion. The talents are inborn with us and the gifts came with the Holy Spirit that God gave to us as believers (Acts 2:38).

   Jesus gave a parable about a man who wanted to travel to a far country. He then gave talents to His servants expecting them to trade with it (Luke 19:13). One was given five talents, another two and the last, one talent. The master expects them to know what to do with it; the same with each of us today. One of them buried his own talent because he felt the master did not like him by given him one. Yet, the master knew their different abilities (Matthew 25:15). God expects you to serve Him with your gifts and talents. But you must be careful to identify yours.

   To identify your gifts and talents becomes easy when you can get involved in the service of God. It becomes an opportunity to discover what you are good at doing. Most great musicians in our world discover their gifts as they join to sing in the Choir. Most great teachers of the word of God started to know that they can do it as they either join children teachers or Sunday school teachers in their church. Find a place of interest to serve the Lord. And you will become great in life. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me not to burry my talents.

“INCREASE IS BY THE USE OF YOUR SPECIAL ABILITIES”
