TEXT: EPHESIANS 4:
11-12
Empowerment means to be given authority, to allow and to
enable somebody to carry out a particular task or job. As God’s children we have
been empowered in different ways, so that we can empower others. God created us
and put seeds of greatness in each and every one of us, to that we can impart
lives. He does not want us to be useful for ourselves alone, but to be useful
to others.
The virtues He deposited in each of us are more than what
we can use for ourselves alone. Ephesians 4:11-12 says God gave some to be
Apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists and some to be pastors
and teachers. To prepare God’s people for works of service, so the body of
Christ may be built up. This verse buttresses the fact that God has empowered
His children from the inception of the earth to occupy one place or the other. He
is not an idle God; therefore He cannot be delighted to see His children idle.
Don’t underestimate yourself that you cannot impart lives,
don’t think you have nothing to offer to your generation. Pray to God to open
your eyes of understanding so that you will see where He wants you to function
to impart your world. No matter how little you think you have, it will still be
a breakthrough to those coming behind you.
You are a problem solver; you are a solution to somebody’s
problem. Find that problem you can solve today, you need to add value to people’s
life. God created you not to be blessed alone but to be a blessing to your
generation (Genesis 12:2).
If you don’t take action; you may not be able to do
exploit for God. The scripture says “These signs shall FOLLOW them that believe….. (Mark 16:17). If you stand still the
signs would not manifest, because He says the signs shall “follow” this means that you need to move for the sign to follow you.
Nothing moves until you move it. Stand up today; activate the great power of
empowerment deposited in you and do exploit for God. Remember you are born to
empower.
