Text: Mathew 25:16(NIV)
Then he that had received the five talents went and
traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
Friends, everyone is uniquely gifted by grace and we must exercise
it by faith. We are loaded and entrusted with talents from on high as no one
was born empty. Hence, ours is to trade with it just like the servant above
received his five talents and went to use it. Proverb
18:16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. Today, many
have covered or buried their glorious talents which has kept them down. God
gives according to ability and we are expected to use our talents
diligently. We must see out talents as a
seed of responsibility that will yield increase to enhance our world to
advancement. Remember, our talents are not equal and therefore we should not
compare ourselves with each other. Romans 12:6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to
us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith.
Interestingly, God’s gift is a seed that we must apply to use as
He breathes on our ability for a tangible result. 1Peter
4:10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one
to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. Remember, talent is not enough but we must
believe God the giver. So, we must learn to be faithful as it came to us by trust
because it is not about how much is given rather what you do with what is given
to you. Therefore, what brings about increase and favour is obedience and
efforts in the use of God given talent. So, your potential cannot be idle but
in use, so don’t hide, waste or ignore it for fear or laziness. It can be singing,
praying, teaching, leading etc but I pray we shall engage our talents today in Jesus
name.
PRAYER POINT:
1. Father,
help me to recognize and value my divine gifts as to yield result of excellence
in my world as a transformative tool today in Jesus name.
