BE PART OF THE WORK

Devotional: Awakening With God

Title: BE PART OF THE WORK

Message of the day: Each of us is called to participate in God's work, using our gifts for his glory.

Based on 1ST OF PETER 4:10 which says: Each one according to the gift he has received, minister it to others, as good stewards of God's manifold grace.

Teaching: God has given us specific gifts so that, as we use them, we can build His church and fulfill His purpose on earth.

Biblical Experience: In the early church, after Jesus' resurrection, the apostles and disciples put their spiritual gifts into practice to preach and spread the gospel. From teaching to caring for those in need, every believer actively participated in the work, seeing remarkable growth of the church.

Recent Story: Marta, a talented chef, decided to use her gift to organize Chrity events, raising funds for her church and those in need. Not only did he find a way to serve, but he also united others in his mission, demonstrating how when we engage with our gifts, impact is multiplying.

Prayer: Lord, help me to find my place in your work, using the gifts you have given me to serve you and others in meaningful ways.

Action: Discover your spiritual gifts and use them in your faith community, being a catalyst for positive change and growth in God's work.

Reflection: Grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.

First bible concordance: ROMANS 12:6-7 Therefore, since we have different gifts according to the grace given to us, if that of prophecy, let it be used according to the measure of faith; or if of service, in serving; or the one who teaches, in teaching.

Second bible concordance: EPHESIANS 4:7 And to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.

Spiritual Echo:Being part of God's work means actively participating with the gifts we have received, managing His multifaceted grace to build up and serve, as in the early church and in Martha's initiative. By using our talents in prophecy, service, or teaching, we multiply our impact, revealing the measure of Christ's gift that catalyzes change and growth in His eternal kingdom.
