Topic: "Use What You Have Been Given."
Written by Sunday Ayodele, Lagos, Nigeria

2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

The lives of those who have been redeemed through their faith in Christ Jesus and His finished work consist of things their heavenly Father has given them. God has given them the spirit of power, love and sound mind. They don't have the spirit of fear because God did not give it to them. They have what the scriptures say they have because the Father gave it to them.

The Father gives that which is useful and profitable to His sons and daughters; He gives only good and perfect gifts to them. He has given them gifts that aid their daily walk in victory in Christ Jesus. His thoughts towards them being perpetually good warrants that He gives them gifts that enable them to explore His grace to get them to the place He appointed for them.

Know what God has given you in Christ and exercise faith to maximize it in order to excel in righteousness, overcome the darkness of this world, and prosper in all your ways. Know what you have been given; put it to good use in order to enjoy the victory Christ secured for you with His precious blood. Have nothing to do with what God has not given you; refuse to be influenced by it.

Resist every attempt of the enemy to impose on you things your heavenly has not given you in Christ. Stand by faith in the word and refuse to be influenced by that which the enemy offers. Reject his offer of fear; take nothing from the enemy of your soul. Maximize that which your heavenly Father gave you to enforce your victory in Christ.

Think About This:
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Faith Confession:
God has given me good and perfect gifts so I may reign in life and be fruitful. I know what I have been given. I daily put them to work by my faith in Jesus and all He has done in me and for me. I have nothing to do with that which my heavenly Father did not give to me. Hallelujah!

Prayer:
Pray in the Spirit.

Daily Bible Reading: James chapter 4.

Your day is blessed.
