Words of Encouragement

You are not without a gift. You are not the one person in the Body that Holy Spirit somehow overlooked when He was distributing. You were not standing behind the door when the gifts were given out. The Spirit who decided which gift each person should have decided about you — specifically, intentionally, with your assignment already in mind. And that gift is not waiting for you to reach some higher level of spiritual maturity before it becomes available. It is already in you. It may be undiscovered. It may be undeveloped. It may have been suppressed by years of being told it does not exist or does not apply to you. But it is there. Ask Daddy God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit to show you what it is. And then step into it — not perfectly, not with all the confidence in the world, but faithfully and consistently. Because somewhere in the world around you there is a need that your specific gift was designed to address. And the world has been waiting long enough.

You have been given more than you may realize. The authority of Jesus — the same authority that holds the universe together — has been extended to you. Not so you could keep it safe, protect your position, or feel special because you have it. So you could give it away. And here is the beautiful thing about Kingdom authority — unlike earthly resources, it does not diminish when you give it away. It multiplies. Every time you pass on what you have received — a prayer, a word, a healing, a piece of freedom you yourself once received — the relay continues. And Jesus promised He would be with you in it, every day, all the way to the end. You are not just a recipient. You are a relay point. Give away today what was freely given to you. The world is waiting on the other end of that relay.

Words of Encouragement

You do not have to perform your way into the gifts of your Father. You do not have to clean yourself up, check all the right boxes, or meet the standards of whatever religious system has been defining worthiness for you. The argument Jesus makes is so simple it almost feels too good to be true — if even imperfect you knows how to give good things to the people you love, how much more does your perfect Father want to give to you? The answer is immeasurably, infinitely, limitlessly more. The gift is Holy Spirit in His fullness. The requirement is simply asking. So ask today friend — not with a performance resume in hand, not with an apology for your imperfections, but with the simple open-handed trust of a child who knows their Father loves to give. Ask. And watch what limitless heavenly resources look like when they are poured out on someone who simply asked.
