Psalm 25:4-5 NIV — Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.

Have you spent time intentionally praying about your gifts and talents? What new ways has God revealed to you to serve Him with your gifts and talents? 

Today I encourage you to seek God for additional ways you will need to be equipped for your service to Him. Be honest about your concerns and apprehensions. Then turn to His word for direction and guidance. 

2 Timothy 3:14-17 NIV — But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Seek scripture for a verse or verses you can return to time and time again when you need reassurance about God’s promise to equip you as you serve Him. Write it down, commit it to memory, and call on His word each time you falter.

Let us pray Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV — Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing His will, and may He work in us what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
