TALENTS AND SKILLS :
"God has blessed you with unique talents and skills, not just for personal success, but to advance His kingdom. Your gifts are a sacred trust, meant to be used for His glory.
Remember, your talents are not just about what you can do, but about what God can do through you. When you surrender your skills to Him, He can multiply them, exceeding your wildest dreams.
Don't let fear or doubt hold you back from using your talents for God's purposes. He has called and equipped you to make a difference in the world.
Whether in music, art, writing, teaching, or any other field, your talents can be a powerful tool for spreading the Gospel and bringing hope to a broken world.
So, don't hide your light under a bushel. Let it shine brightly for all to see, reflecting the beauty and love of Christ.
As you use your talents for God's kingdom, remember that it's not about personal recognition or reward, but about bringing glory to the One who gave you those gifts in the first place.
May your talents be a blessing to others, and may God receive the praise and glory He deserves through your life and work."

#Godislistening#Always
So they're taking our Bible reading. From the Book of John, chapter 14. Verses 1 to 15. And I'm reading from there an Ivy. Heading. Jesus comforts his disciples. Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. My father's house has many rooms. If there were not, so would I have told you that I'm going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you? I will come back and take you to be with me, that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I'm going. So much said to him, Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way? Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him, Phillips said. Lord, show us the Father, and Thou be enough for us. Jesus, Sunset. Don't you know me, Philip? Even after I've been among such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say show us the Father? Don't you believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father living in me who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I'm in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe on the evidence of. The works themselves. Very true. I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I'm going to the Father and I'll do whatever you ask in my name so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name. And I will do it. If you love me, keep my commands, I take the faults and then 15 again. You may ask me for anything in my name and I will do it. If you love me. Keep my commands. Amen.

4. Does my prayer life show trust in God's plan? "Pray without ceasing." (1 Thess 5:17)
5. Am I seeking God's wisdom in my decisions? "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God." (James 1:5)
6. Am I fostering a spirit of forgiveness towards others? "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." (Eph 4:32)
7. Am I being a good steward of what God has given me? "As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God." (1 Tim 6:17)
8. Do my words and actions reflect Christ? "Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves."(Phil 2:3)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 Trusting in the Lord with all our heart calls us to a faith that goes beyond intellectual assent. It's a trust that permeates every aspect of our lives. This trust challenges us to relinquish our reliance on our own limited understanding and to fully embrace God's wisdom and sovereignty.
Leaning not on our own understanding is an invitation to acknowledge the limitations of our human perspective. It's a call to seek God’s wisdom in all situations, especially when circumstances seem perplexing or challenging. The promise that God will make our paths straight is not an assurance of a problem-free life. Rather, it's a guarantee that when we submit our ways to Him, He will guide us towards His best for us. Straight paths represent a life guided by God's wisdom and purpose, marked by clarity and direction. As you make this journey, I encourage you to trust in the Lord and seek His guidance. When you reach this point in your life, there is a peace and assurance that will come which most will never know.
Church Revitalization is the process of leading a dying church back to a healthy state. Restoring the church’s purpose of glorifying God and mission to reach the lost in their community.
Reflect and Discuss LUKE 16
1. Do we recognize that all that we have belongs to God?
2. Do we use what we have in a way that pleases God or cheats God?
3. Are we storing up for ourselves treasures in heaven, or are we trusting the world’s riches that will fail?
4. Where would you say you’re strongest as a steward: in character, in considering consequences, or in worshiping God alone?
5. Where would you say you need to ask God for more grace and sanctification: character, consequences, or the challenge to worship God alone?
6. Very practically: What decisions about money and possessions do you need to make differently in order to demonstrate your devotion to God?
7. Is there any area of your life where you trick others into thinking you’re religious but the truth is something different? Have you considered that God knows your heart?
8. Is there an area of our life where we think God must be pleased with us or something we’re doing simply because it pleases us? Have we considered that area or thing might be revolting in God’s sight?
9. Have we been thinking God’s commands no longer apply to our life or that we do not have to obey God?
10. How do you feel about the doctrine and reality of hell? How does the rich man’s testimony from Hades affect your understanding of hell and what those there would desire for those still living?
**NAME DROPPING GOD: Be Very Careful**
First of all, I’m speaking to myself here. It’s always a good time to do some self reflection.
We might not think of it this way, but casually throwing God’s name around IS taking His name in vain. And it’s not just about swearing—it’s about using His name to prop up our own plans or agendas without desiring to truly honor Him.
It happens when:
• We say “God first” but our decisions are driven by self-interest.
• We use His name to make ourselves look spiritual while ignoring His actual guidance.
• We drop His name in meetings or plans for credibility, but fail to live out His principles in action.
This is taking His name in vain — misusing it, and emptying it of its real weight and meaning.
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” —Matthew 7:21
God isn’t impressed by how often we speak His name—what matters is living in alignment with His will. Let’s make sure our actions reflect His glory and honor the greatness of who He is.
STOP THE NAME DROP.

🌏 In many countries, people depend fully on God for their daily needs and survival, living with a profound trust in His provision. Here, we may have everything we need at our fingertips, but our faith should still reflect that same deep reliance on God. ✝️
Though the expression of our faith might look different, it all rests on the same solid foundation of His love and grace. Let's remember to approach God with the same dependence and trust as our brothers and sisters around the world, living the unity of our faith in His provision and guidance.
