Dearly Beloved,
The value of ourselves are determined by the amount we allow ourselves to be used. The more God can use us the more He will. This imparts a knowledge of trust, respect and understanding. God is in the business of pour out into conditioned hearts. In Acts Chapter 6 we come across a story outlining exact what comes to heart. God is using His disciples to serve when they realize they're in need of help. This is known as Ministry, or the gift of Ministry which is to act on a command in service, to respond to others needs, to organize, or serve. The disciple made it clear that they're outpouring and Call was to not leave they're post by speaking the word. (Acts 6:2) So in authority the disciples chose to find people who can fill in to "serve". This is the first mentioning from what I found as the gifts being operated through others that came across the original disciples. The command came from the disciples to find "seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business." - (Acts6:3)
Notice that other disciples had to find seven men, and not themselves were called to. Or had they not shown effort at a time in need? That isn't very well proven or known but it would be in my opinion that originally the disciples that were multiplying in verse 1 were only sent to others who had qualities about themselves that fit the position in need. It is important as the body of Christ to know who we are. We belong within a spot. However God is looking for those who have prepared themselves to be used. Does this sound familiar? Christ is on His return for a bride who is ready for the pick up. It is imperative that we know that God is looking for ready and Able vessels for the equipping work of His Kingdom!
The business and economic measure of God's abilities are limitless, yet we can hinder it all if we are not prepared. It is time to prepare ourselves for Him. Then prepare for yourself for Him to use you. Do you believe that God is raising up a group of people who were lost in sin? He is making them in all effort to be the best warriors alive. His
Kingdom will come. For Example: King David was spoke about in Acts. His legacy lives on. That alone speaks for it self. However it had everything to do with David preparing himself in a small area to a large area. He Shepard the flock of sheep. From there He defeated a giant all the way up to eating as King of Israel. He didn't get there over night. It was not handed to him either. However in Acts 13:36 David "serves" His purpose! Verse 22 says," And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; also he gave testimony. And said, I have found David the son of Jesse, A man after Mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will. Wow can you imagine the Almighty Speaking about you! He does, and He will if we position ourselves to be conditioned to be useful. Be willing and able. Be the hands and feet of Christ.
