Come, Holy Spirit!

Come Holy Spirit!

Come with your power,

Your anointing,

Your conviction,

Melt, mould and make me.

Spirit of the living God!

I am yielded to you.

I am surrendered.

There is none like you!

Come, O Advocate!

Speak on my behalf,

Teach me to speak the mind of the Father.

Come, O Consuming Fire!

Burn out all within me that is not of you;

Purify me wholly.

Come, O Spirit of Truth!

Guide me into all Truth,

Just as Jesus promised.

Come, O Creator Spirit!

Breathe new life into me

That I may be fully alive

Come, O Holy Spirit!

Kindle your love in me

That I may bear fruit that will last.

Prayer: Come, Holy Spirit!

Fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love

Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.

And they shall renew the face of the earth.

THE GIFTS GOD GIVES

The Lord gives His gifts in His way, in His time and to His people.

You can’t ever figure out what goes into His choice because you are not God.

Well, your duty, dear friend, is to enjoy every single one of your gifts and use them for service and for His glory.

Whatever gift you have, God gave you.

Have you tried asking Him why He gave you that gift? What does He want you to do with it? And when you find out, you go ahead and do it like your life depends on it and see what God will do-He’ll only give you greater gifts!

Never ever compare your gift to anyone elses! Tis an error.

Do not grieve God by being envious but celebrate the fits other people have and do the best you can.

Rejoice! God has given you His gifts so you’ll be His eyes, His hands, His feet and His mouth on earth for the edification of the church and the perfection of saints.

Please! Arise! Go forth! Do and be all He’s called you to be!

To God! 25th May 2012

Made in his image

Endowed with gifts,

Uniquely

Made like none other

Full of love and grace

Called by His name,

His own,

With all the weaknesses and strengths

So awesomely that even

The weaknesses are instruments

For His glory

Endued with power to

Live a Christian life

As prophet, evangelist, teacher, pastor or apostle (Eph 4:11)

Manifesting his gifts(1 Cor  12:1-11)

Sharing His graces with others (Rom 12:6-8 )

Doing all you can do for

His glory

Rooted in Him

Pruned and shaped by Him

To bear much fruit

Fruit that will last(John 15:16)

Led by His Spirit

Daily

To live for Him
