Ability & Talent.

"And unto one He gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; TO EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO his several ability; and straightway took his journey." ... "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and GAVE GIFTS UNTO MEN." (Mat 25:15, Eph 4:8)

HIGH POINTS:

1... The LORD gave according to everyone's inherent abilities. Therefore, some are bound to make more talents/money than others for divinely designated purposes.

2... Every kingdom has their own LEGAL TENDER, so also is the kingdom of God. Talent therefore represent money, wealth, riches, substance, etc) that must be traded for increase. You don't sit down on or bury talents, instead, you're to double, triple or quadruple its use through the several ability of Christ in you.

3... Your abilities constantly pulls the equivalent quantity of talent your way for your increase. These abilities are IN you to be discovered and perfected. Take for example, the "Gift of Discernment", with this gift alone you can avoid bad business deals or contacts, and go for the best. If you don't get this right, what is meant to bring REST might end up frustrating you. 

"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 (money, wealth, riches, substance, etc)." (Mat 6:24)

Many abilities today are being focused only on self and no more on glorifying God with our talents.


~ Re-alignment.
Abilities and Talents cannot be separated in glorifying God. To leave one for the other can be very frustrating. Learn to glorify God the right way He has laid down for us, without sorrow. Isn't that what Prov 10:22 says?!

"The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it."
