Opening Scripture: 1peter 4: 10 Amp
As each of you has received a gift (a Particular spiritual talent, a gracious divine endowment), employ it for one another as [befits] good trustees of God’s many-sided grace [faithful stewards of the extremely diverse powers and gifts granted to Christians by unmerited favor].
Hallelujah!
Beloved, be sold out to kingdom advancement like never before this year.
Remember every gift is for kingdom purposes.
Let’s continue to look at the following a believer must put into consideration while serving in your local church:-
6.Walk in obedience: Obedience works through faith.
1 John 2:3 (NIV) “We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands.” Anyone who wants to know God, to walk closely with Him must obey Him.
Remember we’re rendering the service unto God.
Until you learn to obey God then can you also obey the authority in your local Church (Your pastor and other dePartmental heads) without organization there won’t be a structure.
Follow the rules, and if you have suggestions speak to the higher authority before introducing them. Get approval! Remember every commission has a doctrine.
I have seen people get offended and take a walk because they felt their suggestions were not accepted that’s wrong.
Titus 3:1 says Remind them to be subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed.
Be humble only in humility can you serve best and obey instructions. A proud heart is easily offended.
1 Thessalonians 5: 12 says But we request of you, brethren that you appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction. (Study Romans 13:2)
7.We are blessed to be a blessing: Our different talents given by God are for the benefit of others. Serving pleases the Lord.
There is always an opportunity to bless someone. The more we seek to bless others; God will provide for us and open more doors to accomplish His will. Hallelujah!
We are to build one another up.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 So encourage each other to build each other up, just as you are already doing.
I pray for you today may you be sold out entirely to kingdom advancement in Jesus name Amen.
In The Spirit Of Love:
Remain Ever Lifted.
