#3480 – Your Gifts

Good morning people who desire gifts and are given gifts

As we look at seeing our gifts as Father wants us to see them, I highly recommend you meditate on 1 Corinthians 12, 13 and 14 – they are wonderful chapters on the gifts of God.

For today’s BIY, I feel to just make a few statements about our gifts that Father wants us to think about.

Firstly, they are the gifts of God, not our gifts. They originate from Him and we are simply stewards. Nobody owns a gift of God.

Secondly, God gives some gifts without us asking for them. He initiates, but He never makes mistakes. Therefore, if you have a gift, your responsibility and privilege is to honour God and bless people with that gift.

Thirdly, God gives gifts to people who desire them for the right reasons. As it says about the gift of prophesy, you can eagerly desire it, but ensure it is from a foundation of love.

Fourthly, I want to draw us back to the purpose of all gifts, and that is to honour God and to bless people.

I pray you have Father’s perspective on His gifts for your life this year.
