” Serve big or regret it!!”
1 Peter 4:11
“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.”
What has God gifted you with!? Could it be beauty, strength, wisdom, skill, talent, service, name it! Esther was endowed with beauty nevertheless for her beauty she declared: if I perish I perish, saving the remnant of Israel. Samson was endowed with strength and thus delivered Israel from oppression by the Philistines. The Shunamite was blessed with wealth, with it she gave Elisha hospitality (2 Kings 4:8 ). The widowed woman with the little she had she served Elijah and the little was multiplied ( 1 Kings 17:8-24). This perfectly reflects and authenticates what the scripture says ;
Mathew 13;12
For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
How Best are you using what you have been given? That which you have is not yours, it has been given and because it has been given it means you have been entrusted, God believes you can do better than you think you can do.
Beauty is not to allure opposite attractions but to glorify God. King Ahasuerus called forth Queen Vashti to showcase her beauty, in a like manner God wanted to showcase Israel for His glory but Israel like Vashti shunned Him in disobedience… How obedient are you to Your God, how faithful are you to show forth His glory, for as it is written a lamp is not hidden but put out for all to see and glorify God our father ( Mathew 5:14-16).
That which you have been endowed with is not for you to hide for He has ENDOWED YOU WITH HIS endowments, walk in the confidence of what God has endowed you with.
Joseph was stunningly handsome but he didn’t use his body wrongly, even through seduction pursued him, he still remained faithful, take care of your body , it is His temple, feed on the word when your soul prospers, when your body prospers…
2 Timothy 2:2
“And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.”
God has entrusted us with his word, His divine mystery how much have you told of God’s word, when you hear a credible message, do you share what you picked?
Ecclesiastes 12:9
And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yes, he pondered and sought out and set in order many proverbs. He was wise, he taught and set in order many proverbs…
What have you set in order of that which God has endowed in you?
Prophetic Utterance:
I am a living testimony, endowed with Grace, manifesting forth His glory.
