  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “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”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

THE DANGER OF THE KINGDOM

THE DANGER OF THE KINGDOM  

Read: Luke 9:57-62
But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” (Vs. 62)


    There are some “don’ts” in the kingdom of God. Being unmindful of these “don'ts” put you in danger as a citizen. This is because this kingdom has a terrible and wicked enemy (1 Peter 5:8). You must be careful to know these “don’ts” because it is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the devil.
 
    One of those terrible things is that, having tasted the power and the mysteries of the power of God, don’t ever turn back. You must make up your mind to be total with God. That is why I pity Christians who still want to wine and dine with the world.
 
    Some people do not know that they are looking back when they allow depression, sorrow, disobedience to the laws of God or living in unrighteousness, among others. As a Christian, if you stop paying your tithes, you know what you will face. Be careful about living in fear (2 Timothy 1:7). You must keep building up your faith in God (Luke 22:31-32). Remember the wife of Lot who looked back (Gen. 19:15-26). Don’t ever look back. God will surely sustain you to the end (Isaiah 41:10). The hand and grace of God will not let you fall in Jesus name. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, sustain me to the end.
