Be expectant my child for I have come to show you my gift for you in this season. All that glitters and sparkles may not contain gold. Some packages are simply wrapped in brown paper and tied with a string. These can be overlooked and discarded but may not be worthless. As treasure is always hidden within secret places. It’s only when they are revealed that the value can be seen when displayed and put to use.
Now, I have made it the time to give and to receive and I have purchased a most precious gift which I want to present to you. Will you receive my gift, a token of my love for you?
Despite how you may see it initially, my desire is that you embrace it and put it to good use, in order that others may know that I give generously of superior quality because of my overwhelming love towards you as you are precious in my eyes.
Activation:
Sit with the Lord and ask Him to reveal the gift He has given you to use in this season. Posture yourself to receive what the Lord has given with a grateful heart. Do not rush the process as His gift is unpacked and revealed to you from within.
With every step be diligent to make sure nothing is discarded in its revealing and pay attention to any instructions as these steps ensure correct usage and reveal the true construction.
Continually be intentional in utilising your gift and seeking direction in how to continue putting it to good use. Keep asking the Lord for direction in how you can share the blessing of your gift with others.
James 1:17 (ESV)
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
1 Peter 4:10 (NASB)
As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
1 Timothy 4:14-16 (BSB)
Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given you through the prophecy spoken over you at the laying on of the hands of the elders. Be diligent in these matters and absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all. Pay close attention to your life and to your teaching. Persevere in these things, for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
