HOW TO AVOID LOSING YOUR GIFT

SERMON BY CHIEF ELDER JOHNSON
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27TH

What is your gift?
Salvation is your gift
Finding yourself in the university is a gift. People you applied with, had better marks than you, yet you were admitted.

Everything you have today, wherever you are today, someone was supposed to be there, but then you were grafted and put there. It's a gift (favour)

Read Romans 11:17-24

The same way God can remove you from the tree and graft the original there.

Verse 24
So if God was willing to do something contrary to nature by grafting you unto His cultivated tree, He will be far more eager to graft the original branches back into the tree where they belong.

So if you find yourself using your gift,
* Don't consider people's reactions
* Do it from your heart to please God not man
Lest you lose it.

The gift is not for fun.
The gift isn't for titles.
The gift is for work..
Work to show the glory of God unto man.
