  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...

POWER OF SEED

POWER OF SEED

Scripture Reading: Galatians 6:6-10
Devotional:- “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap” (V. 7) NKJV


    Everyone should get to know that one of the mystery of creation is the creation of seeds (Genesis 1:11-12). Seeds are small but coded materials. As small as a seed could be, yet it contains all that can develop with time to become a tree. No matter how big a tree is, it started to grow from the seed level. It is a seed that creates a future. Jesus had to spend three days in the womb of the earth to rise to glory. 
We also need to know that there are many things in this world that has been made and coded as a seed. You need to know and be conscious of them. Jesus said the seed is the word of God (Luke 8:11). So also your words are seeds. All your actions and attitudes are seeds. All your labour officially or unofficially are seeds. Your thoughts are seed (Proverbs 23:7). Your commitment either at home, school, or office, church or community are seeds, your gift or offerings in the house of God are seeds. You are a seed to your generation (Genesis 3:15; John 7:42).

The mystery of seed is that when it is planted in the right way and in the right place, it can germinate to become something great. All that will become your lot in your future are all going to be harvest of whatever you are doing now. The wisdom here is that you should become more conscious of the fact that whatever you are doing is a seed. As leaders our seed should be sowed in love. We must learn to see something good about people, say something good about people or educate people in love and expect something good about people (Ephesians 4:2; 15-16). So, keep sowing as you want to reap. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be a faithful sower.

“NO ONE CAN SOW ONION TO REAP YAM”
