Using your God-given Spiritual Gifts, as God intended

Once We become Believers in Jesus Christ, and accept God's Free Gift of Salvation, We realize many things.  Spiritual Gifts, are God-given, and meant to be used to Glorify God.  In my case, it was the ability to write, especially poetry.  I have been exclusively writing Christian based poems, for over 10 years.  I also created my own website, to showcase them.  But I also realized I needed to do much more.  I started writing my own style/type of Bible Studies, as well.  Then I decided to start making videos, to post online, of me reading my poems and Bible Studies, etc.  However, I still didn't think it was enough, so I started posting my writings on a website designed exclusively for Christian based writings, FaithWriters.com.  Recently, I started writing Blogs, as well.  Social Media is another option, so I joined many Facebook Groups and Google Plus Groups, as more ways to share, what God has placed upon my heart.  Letting The Holy Spirit flow through my fingertips, makes it easy to write.

Your Spiritual Gifts will not be the same, as others, but are still meant to be used to Glorify God.  My advice is, YOU know what your gifts are, so use them in the best way to Glorify God.  It may not be as evident as writing a Christian poem, article, or book.  It may be in your actions, "actions speak louder, than words", is true, people should see Jesus Christ, in YOU, by what YOU do.  It might be serving or helping, teaching or sharing, "behind the scenes" type of things.

"Sharing" (what others may call "Witnessing") is very important, what is sharing, it's sharing how YOU accepted God's Free Gift of Salvation, and how it changed YOU, and your Life.  It's also telling a "Yet-To-Be-Believer", how they can also accept God's Free Gift of Salvation.  The most important thing, any of Us, can ever do, by helping someone choose Jesus Christ, as their personal Lord and Savior, and have that assurance, that they will join Him, in Heaven, one day.  "Witnessing" simply means, to witness someone accept God's Free Gift of Salvation, God Saves People, not Us, they are Saved by and through The Blood of Jesus Christ, who died on The Cross, for All of Mankind's sin, God raised Him, Alive, from the grave, and after 40 days, Jesus Christ Ascended into Heaven, Alive, where He is still Today.

The way I see it, there are 3 types of people: Believers, Yet-To-Be-Believers, Nonbelievers.  Believers, have already chosen God's Free Gift of Salvation.  Yet-To-Be-Believers, have yet to have accepted God's Free Gift of Salvation, but will.  Nonbelievers, are people who will never accept God's Free Gift of Salvation.  The Holy Bible tells Us, that Jesus Christ, The Great Shepherd, knows His Sheep by name, and His Sheep know His Voice, and when He calls them, they will come to Him.  It's His Command to All of Us, Believers, to share The Gospel, The Word, The Holy Bible, and Jesus Message, with All the World.  When people read The Holy Bible, especially The New Testament, they can read The Words, that Jesus Christ, and His Disciples, want Us to know, and understand.

These are the "Good Works", Believers are to perform, to Glorify God.  That is why realizing Our Spiritual Gifts, and using them for God's Purpose, is so important.  Have YOU ever thought about or considered any of these things, I have discussed?  May Our God Bless YOU, in His Mighty Way, today, and every day.  Amen!
