Use what the Lord has given you

1 Timothy Bible Background

10.24.2016 – New Testament: 1Ti 4.14

To read the Bible in a year, read First Timothy 4 on October 24, In the year of our Lord 2016

By Don Ruhl

The Lord blessed Timothy with a gift that came through the laying on of the hands of the eldership,

Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership (1 Timothy 4.14). 

We may not have received our abilities and gifts from the Lord the same way that Timothy did, but the Lord has blessed every single one of us in some fashion through some means, even if it was simply through birth.

That being the case, we must not neglect to use what He has given us to use.

Questions:

  • Are you functioning in the church as the Lord intends?
  • What can you do?
