These are just examples. For the length of time, please allow the Holy Spirit to guide you as you pray to God and seek Him.
Today, we will pray for qualities 18 and 19:
Quality #18: Be determined to use the gift(s) God has entrusted to you for His Kingdom.
1 Corinthians 12:6-11 (NASB) There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills.
The Lord has blessed each one of His children with different gifts. Some of us may have the gift of exhortation, some teaching, another may have the gift of leading worship, encouragement, wisdom, preaching, hospitality, and so forth. Whatever your gift(s) may be, please pray and ask God to give you His wisdom and empower you with His Holy Spirit to use them for His glory and for the edification of His church (the body of Christ). Don’t take your gifts for granted nor misuse them for self glorification or for selfish pursuits. Instead, pray without ceasing and use them for God’s glory. The Lord has blessed each one of us with gift(s) to build up His church. There is no gift to big or to small in the eyes of God. Just as we are all significant to Him, so are the gifts He has blessed us with.
James 1:17 Every good thing and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.
Do not become boastful, prideful, or filled with self-entitlement nor envy the gifts of others! Instead, embrace and accept the gift(s) that God has given to you, remain humble, run your race well while staying in your own lane, and faithfully use what He has entrusted to you to further His kingdom on this earth.
1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.
Quality #19: Be determined to not take the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ for granted.
Galatians 5:13 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
Ladies, the Lord has given us freedom. We are indeed free in Christ, but let’s not use our liberty as an excuse to live in sin and take God’s grace for granted. We are called to live godly lives that are well pleasing to Him. It doesn’t mean that we are perfect. For Romans 3:10 says: “There is none righteous, not even one.” But God has said in 2 Peter 1:3 Seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. As believers, God has given us His Holy Spirit who will enable us to walk in holiness and obedience to Christ. So lets not grieve the Holy Spirit nor play games with God and stumble our fellow believers. If we do, we deceive ourselves and we are in danger of God’s judgment to our own destruction. He’s a Holy God and we need to walk in reverence of Him. Galatians 5:16 says: Walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. Ladies, let’s use our Christian liberty in a way that pleases and honors God. Do not take the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ for granted.
John 8:36 So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
Jeremiah 25:6-7 And do not go after other gods to serve them and to worship them, and do not provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands, and I will do you no harm. “Yet you have not listened to Me,” declares the Lord, “in order that you might provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands to your own harm.”
Deuteronomy 10:12 Now Israel, what does the Lord your God require from you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
Ok beauties! Wishing you and your families a very Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving! We will connect on 12/2️⃣1️⃣/2️⃣1️⃣ for the last set of qualities as the year comes to a close.
God’s Blessings to you all!🙏🏽🙏🏽 😘💗😘💗
