"For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. "And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately went on a journey." Matthew 25:14,15
"For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. "And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately went on a journey." Matthew 25:14,15
This parable concerns what Jesus has given us. The question is: Are we using the gift, calling, and commission, or have we buried it? In my case I received the baptism in the Holy Spirit which gave me a prayer language and eventually the gift of writing and a boldness to speak His word!
There are so many today that I see in churches, men's meetings, and other venues that don't seem to have any spiritual life in them, just empty vessels like the previous Message about the ten virgins, the foolish didn't have any oil, or Holy Spirit! There are many gifts and callings and normally you can recognize these gifts in a person, but it is obvious if someone is lacking in the gifts.
If you have been given a gift then use it, if you don't have one ask the Lord to Baptize you in the Holy Spirit and you will receive the anointing that is promised to those who believe. May God give you the talents according to your ability!
"Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them and made another five talents. "And likewise, he who had received two gained two more also. "But he who had received one went and dug in the ground and hid his Lord's money." Matthew 25:17,18
