An Exciting God

Have you ever seen or witness a miracle that is boring? A miracle that draws no reaction or emotion from you, no matter how small it was or how common it may be when God does a miracle in our life it is always exicting. What does that tell you about the God you serve.

Many today, see Christianity or serving God as something boring, notting new, they feel trapped like they cant go too clubs, drink wear latest fashions etc

• ( mostly in Africa, Nigeria to be precise, once they see someone looking too good or having a unique fashion sense, having the latest technology, going on dates with their partners, showing love in public, they begin to doubt the persons Christianity)

Many see Christianity as preditable. Our God is an exciting God.

Exodus 14 : 21KJV God would have easily told the children of Israel to borrow ships and boats to cross the red sea, or He would have miraculously provide a ship for them like He provided an offering for Abraham. But he decided to part the red sea. Our God is an exicting God.

The gifts and talents we have are given to us by God, and it is our duty to worship and serve God with them.

• Matthew 25:14-30KJV

Verse 14: When God created us, He gave us certain talents & gifts, these talents are not just for our benefits ( to excel in life) but are also ment to be used in worshiping God.

Verse 15: each and everyone of us today, God has placed in us different talents, some might be more talented than others, not because God loves or favour them more. We are given these talents based on our own abilities.

Verse 16 -17 : Like i said earlier, the talents given to us by God are ment to be used. Not just for ourselves but also to serve God. There can only be increase when we release the little we have, and the best place to show forth your talent is in the house of God. Many popular artist to began in the Church.

Verse 18 : Many of us today fall in this area, we allow fear to creep in, we feel we are not as talented as the others, am not good enough, if i should show what i can do, i we make a fool of my self. Some of us even feel relaxed to show it to friends that would pull us down than using it for God.

Verse 24 : We feel the pastor is trying to exploit us, or we are being limited, when all you needed was a steady growth under authority.

Verse 25 : Which takes us back to what i said in verse 18, fear. We fear failling even before trying, we fear if we show our talents now it would be wasted.

• Note : the people you surround yourself with matters

Verse 28 : Why did the master give the talent to someone that already have 10? Why not give it to the one that has less?

The answer lies in verse 15. The ability to use the talents.

It does not matter how many talents a person has, or how much you jealous and envy them, if they are capable He would give more to them.
