Gifts From God – June 2023 NM Prayer Connect/PATH, NM/COG, NM & El Paso, TX Newsletter
Sisters & Brothers In Jesus,
Thus says God, the Lord, He Who created the heavens and stretched them forth, He Who spread abroad the earth and that which comes out of it, He Who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk in it:
I the Lord have called you, the Messiah, for a righteous purpose and in righteousness; I have taken You by the hand and have kept You; I have given You for a covenant to the people [Israel], for a light to the nations;
To open the eyes of the blind, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness from the prison. [Matt. 12:18-21.]
– Isaiah 42:5-7
Behold, I have appointed Him [the Messiah, or David as representing Him] for a witness – one who shall testify of salvation – to the nations, a prince and commander to the peoples.
– Isaiah 55:4
God Is Spirit and All who worship Him must do so In Spirit and Truth. Jesus said, “My Word Is Spirit and Life!” When standing before Pilate, Jesus was asked, “What Is Truth?” Although He did not respond at that time, because He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, His silence was deafening and shouts down through the ages, “I Am The Way, The Truth And The Life! No man comes to The Father, but By Me!” The “Gifts From God” which are many have shaken (literally) and divided the Church, because of man made doctrines, rules and regulations, but as we seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance, rightfully divide the Word of Truth and allow Him to have His Way with us, Jesus Christ, the Saviour, God’s Most Spiritual and Precious Gift to All of mankind on the face of planet Earth will bring Unity, Edification, Faith, Hope and above All, LOVE to His Body, so that we can take the Love of God and the Good News of Jesus to All Nations and Peoples! Let us move on now In the Most Excellent of Ways, prayerfully, with an open mind, heart and soul, walking softly and humbly before Our God as He teaches us In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
NOW about the spiritual gifts (the special endowments of supernatural energy), brethren, I do not want you to be misinformed.
– 1 Corinthians 12:1
It’s funny how numbers take their place in Biblical studies: 7 for perfection, completeness, fulness, wholeness; 10 for power as in multiplication, times. X’s (Did you know The Holy of Holies was a perfect cube measuring 10 X 10?), then there are The Twelve Tribes of Israel, The Twelve Apostles and for your reading pleasure In The Word of God, Romans 12 and 1 Corinthians 12 for a wonderful study in the Gifts of the Holy Spirit that should be present and active in the Life of All Believers!
We are commanded to be filled with the Holy Spirit and the Scriptures are clear that if we ask of the Father His Spirit then we receive. Christ In YOU Is the Hope of Glory! He who has the Son has Life! As a Believer In Jesus as Your Lord and Savior, You “are” filled and anointed with the same Holy Spirit that descended like a dove upon Him when He walked upon the face of this Earth. Therefore, you have the same Gifts From God and more importantly “The Gift Of God,” Jesus Who Is The Resurrection And The Life, Living, Moving And Having His Being In YOU by the Power and Anointing of The Holy Spirit!
God wants to establish His Justice upon the Earth and wants us to hopefully wait for, expect His direction and law (Love God, your neighbor as yourself and one another as Jesus Loves YOU). [Rom. 8:22-25.] Jesus Is Lord; His Name Is Above All, His Glory shall be over All the Earth and He Inhabits the Praises of His People! He Who created the heavens and Earth has breathed the Breath of Life, His Holy Spirit into our soul, called us unto Himself, taken us by the hand, kept us, entered into a covenant relationship of Love, made us a Light to the Nations, opened our eyes to open up other’s, set us free, so that we could set the captives free indeed, brought us out of darkness into His Glorious Light, given us His Life, so that we could have Eternal, Everlasting Life, given us His Word as a lamp to guide us and His Name, so that we could overcome the World!
Listen! Incline your ear [submit and consent to the Divine will], and come to God; hear, and your soul shall revive; and He will make an everlasting covenant or league with you, even the sure mercies – kindness, good will and compassion – promised to David. [2 Sam. 7:8-16; Acts 13:34; Heb. 13:20.] He who has ears to hear, let him hear! Hear, O Israel, The Lord, Our God, The Lord Is One! Want revival?
All God’s Promises are Yes and Amen In Jesus and His Call and “Gifts” are irrevocable! There is a whole World out there that many of us do not know of, but God says, “Nations that you did not know shall run to you, because of The Lord Your God, and of The Holy One Of Israel, for He Has Glorified YOU!” You have been appointed by God, an Ambassador for Christ, representing Him for a witness to the nations to testify that Salvation can be found in no other Name, but Jesus’!
We are Called to be Witnesses of the Resurrection Power of God, so take your place as a Royal Priesthood and Holy Nation, Kings and Priests, because God has “given” us EVERYTHING we need to live our Life Unto Him In Jesus’ Name.
Take all the gifts and talents He has bestowed upon you and use them for His Purposes, so that All Glory, Honor and Praise can go to He Alone Who Is Worthy!
Seek, inquire for and require the Lord while He may be found – claiming Him for necessity and by right; call upon Him while He is near.
– Isaiah 55:6
