DEVOTION
THURSDAY 11th

By Pastor James Mwesigwa.
YOU’RE CALLED AND GIFTED IN GOD.
SCRIPTURE:
Rom 1:1-4. Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated
to the gospel of God which He promised before through His prophets in the Holy
Scriptures, concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of
David according to the flesh, and declared to be the Son of God with power
according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.
TODAY’S LESSON
When God created us, He designed us with very prestigious and unique gifts just
like Christ, to support us for the gospel of God which was promised before through
His prophets in the Holy Scriptures. However when you’re born in your family,
name it, poor or rich, royal or as servants, the world brands you with an identity
name it doctor, prince, princess, king, queen, professor, engineer and so many
others that could stand in your way of using your gifts as God created you, by
giving you other assignments to divert you from your original call from God. Jesus
was called a seed of David according to the flesh and at many times people wanted
to crown Him as their new promised king in flesh diverting Him from His call of the
savior to save the world and losing the identity of being the son of God. However
Jesus knew His identity more than anyone else in the world and so it was
impossible to divert Him.
Living Jesus alone, no one else has ever been born and knew his identity well just
like Jesus, however many of us have found ourselves in those places without
knowing how we came into them. But formerly we did different things than
preaching the gospel. Peter was a former fisherman, Paul was a former scribe
persecuting the church, I was a former graphic designer, and do you know what
your life has been called to?
Further Scriptures; 2 Corinthians 5:16-17, Hosea 4:6
Some of us have been called to be Apostles, others Evangelists, others Prophets,
others teachers, others Pastors and others supporters. Who are you, what are you doing that is causing to the praises of God’s name, is God known to you and those
around you? Keep this in mind, that you’re called for the gospel, and whatever the
world has called you is diverting from your divine purpose to bring the glory of God
in this world.
PRAYER:
Dear Father, we thank you for this life you have given to us, I know we are still
alive in you because of our unfulfilled purposes, you are a God whose tender
mercies are forever and we come to you to receive mercy from you. We have done
all things that brings pleasure in us and ignored our divine purposes, the very
reason for creation, but our dear Lord, we have come to you and ask you for
wisdom to help us know what we are supposed to do for the gospel in your name
our Lord Jesus Christ that we may serve you and bring praises to your name in all
of our life in Jesus name we pray. Amen.
