GIFTS young people can BRING

 


1 Timothy 4:12

King James Version

12 Let no man despise thy youth; 

but be thou an example of the believers, 

in word, in conversation, in charity, 

in spirit, in faith, in purity.


What gifts can young people bring?

How can you make life better for others?

What spirit lives in you?


Life is not about feeding off each other.

Life is about love, peace, joy, truth, understanding.

Life is best lived, when you give of yourself.

According to the WILL of GOD.

That's how you can also avoid vultures.

And those who wish evil upon the young.


Live, according to GOD's will.

And He shall protect you always.

Psalm 144:15

King James Version

15 Happy is that people, 

that is in such a case: 

yea, happy is that people, 

whose God is the Lord.


How to live a truly purposeful life?

A worthwhile one acceptable to GOD?

A fulfilling life you can be content with?

Be SPIRIT-driven.

Be born again.

Be of GOD.


Here's how you know if you are:

You do not live for self.

You are not vain.

You are not greedy.

You are not cruel.

You are not self-absorbed.

You desire to help others.

You wish to be of service to others.

You want to help, according to GOD's will.

You want to live, according to GOD's plan.

You live by Scripture.


You are all that, if you're born again.

For GOD's SPIRIT lives in you.

He teaches you, all you need to be.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

King James Version

19 What? 

know ye not that your body 

is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, 

which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: 

therefore glorify God in your body, 

and in your spirit, 

which are God's.


The young have youth.

You have spirit.

You have drive.

You have creativity.

You have imagination.

You have energy.

You have fire.

You have strength.


Those are your gifts.

Now, the question is, who does it serve?

Matthew 6:24

King James Version

24 No man can serve two masters: 

for either he will hate the one, and love the other; 

or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. 

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.


Luke 16:15

King James Version

15 And he said unto them, 

Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; 

but God knoweth your hearts: 

for that which is highly esteemed among men 

is abomination in the sight of God.


Colossians 2:8

King James Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you 

through philosophy and vain deceit, 

after the tradition of men, 

after the rudiments of the world, 

and not after Christ.


1 Timothy 4:1-3

King James Version

4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, 

that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, 

giving heed to seducing spirits, 

and doctrines of devils;

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; 

having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3 Forbidding to marry, 

and commanding to abstain from meats, 

which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving 

of them which believe and know the truth.


1 John 2:16

King James Version

16 For all that is in the world, 

the lust of the flesh, 

and the lust of the eyes, 

and the pride of life, 

is not of the Father, but is of the world.


Walk with SPIRIT, and you shall do wonderfully.

There will be TRUE life in you.

Which you can give others.
