Gifts From God: Devotions From Time of GraceSample
God’s Personal Gifts
Everyone has personal gifts from the Spirit--skills, aptitudes, talents. All of God’s gifts were given for the purpose of making the lives of other people better. This process enriches the giver and blesses the receiver.
Passion
Who wants to hang around apathetic people? Not me! The people I most enjoy being with have fire in the belly for something. When the Spirit of the Lord is moving among people, one of the gifts he distributes is passion, the inner burn that wants to change something or grow something for Jesus.
God was once very pleased with a man who had served him well. He told Moses, “Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites; for he was as zealous as I am for my honor among them” (Numbers 25:11). From that day on, God channeled the priestly line through Phinehas’ family.
Have you ever wondered what your purpose on earth is? groped for your spiritual gift inventory? Well, what do you care about? Where does your passion lie? Do you love kids? music? counseling? building things? Let 'er rip. Burn like Phinehas.
