You can do some stuff… you are capable of some stuff, you got the right to do some stuff… heck you may even do stuff now… but what is it really that you are expected to do. 

 

Ability is what you're capable of doing. 

Gifting is where you find your sweet spot

Talent is what God has give you to develop

Skill is talent X’s 1000 practices

But Faith is what you choose to do above and beyond all of these combined. 

 

Ability is a gift from God given at birth… we all have some ability… what it really means is we have some built in responsibility - its in our DNA 

But if I live a life where I use my ability, I use my gifting, I use my talent and I develop and use my skill…. well to some degree isn’t that expected? What and how am I different than anyone else? The key to a life that truly makes a supernatural and eternal difference is one that is infused with faith. 

I love Hebrews chapter 11 - it is called the faith chapter… it gives a short run down of all the people in the OT who lived a life of faith and did things that they could not have possibly done on their own - even with the best ability, gifting and talent… 

Look, lets be honest… no matter how much of those you have unless you have faith like moses (just one of the many people mentioned) you are not going to live and escape Pharaoh. Your ability and talent won’t cut it when the angel of death comes for you… you better have some faith and act on it. 

Your skill won’t move mountains? 

You thousands of hours of practice won’t heal the sick or cast out demons…

So why not create the perfect storm and combine your ability, your talent, your skill and some faith and ask God to use you beyond these 3 combined together for some amazing God moments. These 3 are fantastic, but even more eternity altering when one combines them with faith.

let me share with you a thought that I have had many conversations along the years with many different people. 

I have heard people say things like “I am believing God for a million dollars or I am believing God to make me a millionaire… now I get it. You are stepping out in faith saying that… but in todays world it does not take faith to be a millionaire… just some hard work. But what if you said i want to be a billionaire… or trillionaire?? Now maybe we need some faith to go along with our ability, talent and skill.

So lets break this down to X living. What are the goals you have in your spiritual walk? Now times them by a 1000. Can you do it on your own? You are probably going to really need faith in God to get it done… what if I put it this way… on your best day what could you accomplish with your abilities, your gifts and talents? Now times it by a 1000… you are going to need some faith right? 

I think you’re getting it. 

So today… take what you got, and ask God to give you some faith as to what it could mean to the rest of the world!
