David Jeremiah Devotional – 27th March 2025 -The Gift of Gifts 

Each human organ and limb has a role to play. No wonder the apostle Paul used the human body to illustrate how every member of the Body of Christ has a role to play in the Church. Instead of limbs and organs, God has equipped the Body of Christ with spiritual gifts to accomplish its purpose in the world.

And what is the purpose of the Church in the world? It is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and see people become His followers (Matthew 28:19-20). Christians have different spiritual gifts based on the grace given to them by God (Romans 12:6). Just as all the parts of the human body have a role to play, so every member of the Body of Christ has a role to play in spreading the Gospel and making disciples. It is every Christian’s responsibility to understand their gift and employ it in fulfilling the Great Commission.

Do you know what role God has gifted you to play in the Body of Christ? If not, ask God to show you and help you to put your gift to work!

Pride of gifts robs us of God’s blessing in the use of them.
