WE SHOULDN’T NEGLECT THIS IN THE PANDEMIC
This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you. (2 Timothy 1:6 NLT)
This christmas season is even more challenging because some people are battling with their emotions more than in other years.
The reason is that all their emotions combine, the normal emotions of this time and the added pressures of the coronavirus pandemic, social distancing, sick friends and family, lack of work, etc.
Flames. Paul advises us not to neglect the flames of God’s gift in us because of the pandemic.
This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you… (2 Tim. 1:6 NLT)
One way of checking out fire is to evaluate our habits of a successful disciple. Have you ceased in :
-Praying
-Reading the Bible
-Writing your daily devotional
-Congregating (even online)
-Serving
-Generosity
This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you… (2 Tim. 1:6 NLT)
Think about it:
How have your emotions been affected due to the pandemic?
How is your fire in this time of pandemic?
How would you evaluate the habits of the successful disciple?
