Neglecting the gift

Imagem de capa - Neglecting the gift

Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership. 1 Timothy 4.14

The reason why many assistants fail in their respective ministries is the fact that over the months and years that they have been doing the Work of God, they allow the “SPIRITUAL CANCER” called carelessness and complacency to invade their hearts, leaving the most important gift in the world, which is the gift of faith, unattended.

Note that many people receive various gifts, such as medicine, law, management, the art of playing a sport, etc.

We have received the gift of faith, deliverance, healing, blessing and especially, the gift of leading others towards an encounter with God (new birth). It is very strong, but many have overlooked it. As a result, they end up losing themselves. Lets keep watch so that we do not fall into this trap of the devil.

We are not normal, we are special because we have a gift that no one else has, the vision and direction we receive comes directly from the Holy Spirit.

The faith that was revealed to us is able to, besides destroying all forces of evil and conquering a quality life, achieve eternal salvation. In other words, the right to live with Jesus forever – He personally went to prepare our heavenly mansion.

What more do you want Assistant:

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” John 14.1-3

Assistant, take care of the gift you received for the progress of your soul, invest in it because it is eternal. One day it will leave this world, and I hope and pray every day that it is to the glory of the Lord Jesus. But if carelessness and complacency prevail throughout your days here on Earth, unfortunately it will go to the abyss of darkness. This is not the end you want, much less the end God wants for you, right?

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity… Jeremiah 29.11-14
