USE IT OR LOSE IT

 Philippians 3:16 
"Only let us hold true to what we have attained." ESV 

We often wonder why we have not received answer to our prayers for more maturity, knowledge, and revelation from Him. The reason we have not received more is because we have not used what He has already given us. If we put into practice all that we have, we will find that He gives us more in His time and in His way.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us for failing to live in the light You have already given us and yet, we ask for more. Help us to savor the light we have, to use it to it's fullest so that we will be prepared to receive the light You are longing to add to what we have. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.

NO RECALLS ON THIS

 
Romans 11:29
 
"For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable." ESV
 
 
God has given each one of us gifts and a calling to His service. Regardless if we fail to use our gifts, or we slack off from using them, or we just let time go by without nurturing them, God never takes them away from us, never takes them back. We will give an account for how we have used our gifts and calling. And it's never too late to start using them or to rekindle them.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us for being so lazy and disrespectful to the precious gifts and the heavenly calling to Your service. By the convicting power of Your Holy Spirit, stir our hearts to use the gifts You have given us, so that You will be glorified. We pray earnestly in the name of Jesus, Amen.

DON'T LET THAT FIRE GO OUT!

 
 
2 Timothy 1:6
 
"For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands." ESV
 
We have all been given a gift from God to be used for His glory and purpose. It is up to us to maintain the fire, freshness and readiness of our gift by feeding it through close communion with Him and other believers. That way, when God presents the opportunity for us to use our gift, we will be ready and useful.
 
Heavenly Father, we thank You that You give so freely the gifts that testify of Your great love and mercy. Help us to keep our gifts burning brightly, ready and waiting to let them do the work You intended. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
