Practice practice practice… When was the last time you heard someone talk about how they were practicing their Christian gifts? Practicing their golf swing… maybe, but your Christian gifts?

 

Rate us… share us- help people find us!

 

 

 

Faith is a muscle. Some of us have bigger muscles then others, stronger muscles etc…

But it is only because we used them more, work them out and push them. 

 

Our Christian walk is the same.

 

John G. Lake one of the greatest miracle workers in the last 100 years would train up prayer workers for his healing rooms by sending them out up to a 100 plus at a time to peoples houses that were sick. Each one had their own sick person to attend to. He would tell them do not come back until that person is healed. What happened? The workers came back days later, weeks later, months later… but they all learned how to pray for the sick by praying for the sick! 

 

You have 3 things that you cannot shake. They are tried and true and 100% accurate in who you are.

 

You have the nature and life of God.

You probably can tell in your family who you look like. Your mom or Dad or an uncle…

 

But even if you don’t, a blood test will settle that.

 

you have the nature of God, the life of God. And he spilled his blood to prove it.

 

2. You have the Holy Spirit in you. Oh wait a second what I meant to say is you have the most powerful, omnipotent, omniscient, life changing, Life force available in the universe in you! 

 

 

3. you are son’s of God. He is your Daddy. 

 

 

You don’t have to try for any of these. They are who you are. Now what that affords you is one who is powerful, effective, blessed, set apart.

 

So why don’t you see it? 

You don’t practice it. 

You don’t have to prove it, but you do have to practice it. 

 

Typically very few of us will have have the opportunity to out wit someone, but we have many opportunities to outwork them! 

 

What do I mean by that: Well very few of us pray and see immediate results. Very few of us witness and share Christ and see immediate results…

The problem is we then think - well it must not be my gift.

NOPE- you just must be willing to work at it!

 

I don’t want anyone to out pray me… Sound weird? Maybe, but I realize that intimacy is power, but intimacy takes time. 

 

Are you willing to push in and practice your spiritual walk?
