GIFT AND GRACE

  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...

MEEKNESS

MEEKNESS

Numbers 12:1-9
Devotional:- “Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth” (V3) KJV

    The most vital aspect of faith is for man to yield to God’s instructions. God wants us to obey Him by faith. This is a level of honour to God. If Moses did not obey God, he would not have seen all the miracles he saw in Egypt and the wilderness. If the priests had not obeyed to step into Jordan by faith, the water would not have parted for them (Joshua 3:13).

 If Peter had not obeyed Jesus to launch his net into the deep, he would not have seen the miracle of many fishes (Luke 5: 1-10). If the disciples did not obey Jesus to fetch water as commanded, they would not have seen the miracle wine (John 2: 1 -10). If anyone does not obey God’s instruction, he may not see the glory of God.

The grace for obedience is embedded in meekness. We therefore need meekness to enjoy the working power of God. Meekness will help us to look away from the shame and mockery of men when God instructs (Philippians 2:5-10). Please, ask for the grace of meekness and God will give you. Meekness is tenderness to submit to God’s instruction (Psalms 25:9). The meek will inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). Why? They know how to walk with God. Man, and God’s levels are too far and distant to walk by mere reasoning but meekness is the link (Isaiah 55:8-9). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me the spirit of meekness.

“MAN PLUS MEEKNESS IS EQUAL TO GOD’S MANIFESTATION”
