YOUR GIFT AND YOUR DESTINY

Post date: Jun 15, 2016 6:50:15 AM

Destiny, gift, and talent are three different things that every human being has and needs to know their functions. Some have in abundance while some have sparingly, but all were designed by God to bring a blessing into our lives. Destiny, gift, and talent are all very important in our daily living but the most important of then all is destiny. Your gift can enable you to function around the world you want and is able to create in your own senses, like people who are gifted in their own kind of music and have created their own world by their kind of music have great followers. Some are gifted with beauty, in crafting, arts, speech, reasoning, criticism, and certain forms of actions while some are gifted in wickedness, destructions, inflicting pains, gossiping and doing whatever is in their heart without looking at the consequences on themselves and others. There are people who are gifted with the ability for wonderful and excellent deeds, of restoring others, seeking and offering their best to others and helping them find true success in life; the proper use of your gift can speak for and commend you before men but not before God. While gifts are good, they can be very deceitful in judgment, but no one can use his or her gift to deceive God at any time irrespective of the wealth and the accolade they have attracted through the use of such gift. There are also natural gifts and spiritual gifts. Natural gift includes things we cannot control like our parents, race, gender and language. There are spiritual gifts, special abilities, and personality; these gifts make us unique and different from others in many ways. Never neglect the gift in you, learn to know them, develop them and use them; that is the only time you will be able to have a breakthrough that will speak for you.  

“The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity, but a wounded spirit who can bear? The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.” Proverbs 18:14-16. Gifts are powerful in the hands and lives of those who know them and use them properly, but gifts should never be taken for destiny. When gift is properly identified, known and used, they end up glorifying God and sets the good ground for the actualization of your God given destiny. We know that Satan the devil was massively gifted by God in all areas and he knew that gift well enough and use it well enough; but while in the process of using the gift, pride of what was given to him, what he was with the gift, what he had done with the gift and what he can and plan to accomplish with the gift consumed his thoughts, his ways and his imagination thereby dictating his actions before man and God. Remember, gift is meant to bring a blessing and help you be what God had said and desired of you, but when the gift that you have been given corrupts your thoughts, relationship with God and man, words, actions, and imagination, it will hinder you from attaining the height of your destiny in God’s own calendar for your life. Gifts were given to distinguish you from others and before men even in the same profession, with the same language, parents, nationality, race, and gender; it was not given to destroy you or make you feel more superior to others. That the reason the scripture advised we should not compare ourselves with others even when we are in the same profession and location. Paul was gifted in oratory and style, while still using that gift, God turned him around and used that same gift to glorify His name and amplify His words. God’s gift was to help him find and fulfilled that destiny. God will never regret giving anyone a gift that enhances his or her life, but the proper use of that gift can affect your destiny. God did not take His gift away from Satan, but the improper use and pride of the gift turned him to be what he is today. Discover, develop and use your gift to glorify God as Paul and David did and God will ensure you fulfill the destiny you were born to fulfill on earth. Your gift is as important as that of others; do not ignore them but rather discover them, use them, glorify God with them and He will give you the joy and success you have desired for years.
