Steemchurch:VESSELS AND CHANNELS OF BLESSING

Whatever be the gifts which each has received you must use them for one another's benefit, as good stewards of God's manifold grace (1 Peter 4: 10)

Wow! I love this message. Because I am thinking of the benefits that the fruits and the results of some people's gifts and talents and abilities have done in my life. For example, the Mobile phone in my hands, the Whatsapp, the Facebook, the fridge in my home, the TV in my home, the Books I read, the songs and music I listen to, the tea I took this morning , the school I teach , the house I live, the Church I attend, the preaching I hear every Sunday, the teachers who taught me, the toothpaste and brush I use every day, the shoes and shirts I wear, and the list goes on and on.
And the Bible says that all these benefits comes from God's manifold grace, which He has bestowed to people as gifts. And what incredible gifts they are and we have from God.
Gift simply means ABILITY. And some of these abilities, we are born with, others we learn them, while others are imparted to us.
And these gifts come in various shapes, sizes, colors and taste. And the scriptures say, they are for the common good, the benefit of others.
So as good stewards or managers, we are to use them faithfully, wisely, profitably and generously to serve and advance life, society we live in, our nation and the whole world in general.
My problem is that some people are abusing their gifts by employing them wrongly and others are using them to destroy the very people and purpose they are given for.
And let me remind, warn and admonition you that if you are such a person, please stop, because God holds you accountable and responsible and will bring you to judgment.
Rather become the vessel and channel of God's manifold grace by using the gifts, talents and abilities you have for His glory and for the benefit, blessing and profit of people, society and God's purposes.

So stop posting foolish and stupid things on the social media, that is a wrong use of your gifts. Stop using your mouth for those insult, words and blasphemy. That is abuse of your gift of speech. It's not a freedom of speech, rather it's abuse of God's gifts and grace. And He would judge you for that. Stop destroying God's church and God's people. That is a sure sign that you will be destroyed by God. Stop stealing with your hands. That is abuse of God's gifts. Stop abusing your sex life, manhood or womanhood, it doesn't make you smart or powerful. Actually, it makes you a fool, and God has no pleasure in fools.
Learn from people, how they are using their gifts and abilities to prosper in life, to advance society and to bring progress and success to others.
Dear brother and sister, scripture says you are a steward, therefore be a good steward and faithful, because you are responsible and accountable to God. You are a gifted and ability loaded person. God's manifold grace sit in you and is looking for outlets to flow to bring Him glory
May you from today know your gift (s) and faithfully use them to benefits others and honour God.
May you become the vessel and channel of Blessing you were created and born to be and may you also be blessed and benefited by other people's gifts and grace in Jesus mighty name. Amen
Shalom, life and grace to you
Moving people unto God's purposes
