…It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the God – Matthew 4:4

“Life is real. Life is not a rehearsal session. Life in Christ is also not limited to simply reading or listening to the Word, but being a ‘doer’ or ‘practitioner’ of the Word! Many people are fond of simply absorbing information rather than responding to or acting on it.

“…Just as what goes into your mouth feeds your physical body, what goes into your eyes and ears feeds your spirit and soul.

If you have a diet of primarily “spiritual junk food,” you are actually harming your soul and spirit and contributing to poor health in those areas. If this is true, the supernatural power of God cannot rest upon you the way God wants it to…

“Ultimately, discovering and using our talents – at work or anywhere else – is one of the most important aspects of what is called “divine guidance.” As followers of Christ, one of our basic duties is to discern God’s will for our lives – as Paul says, to “find out what pleases the Lord” (Ephesians 5:10). Many Christians are aware of this concept for day-to-day matters, praying that the Lord will “direct our steps” through the small choices that we make each hour. Still others will pray for guidance when confronted with a major decision: whom to marry, where to go to school.

Each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.

1 Corinthians 7:7

“What would you call a man in his fifties who, despite many patient attempts at training, could not master the most basic arithmetic? Mathematically deficient? Intellectually challenged? An idiot?

Or should you call him a genius, one of the most talented humans ever to walk on the earth?
