To work and proclaim his works ann minister his word. The best way to put this is to live a perfect life and help others get to know the word of God and how they help work out their salvation and also to seek for the kingdom of heaven

It is sometimes difficult to assess one`s God given talent, and even more difficult to know how to put this to God`s use.Ever since I gave my life to God, I have continued to ask God, what talents I have and how I shouls use this to serve him.Well, I believe He has been giving me the opportunity to use my love and compassion for people to serve as a humanitarian worker in mostly Islamic countries.In the course of my activities and work, I find myself supporting people in various ways using the word of God.

I praise the lord all the time for several talents given to me. God has entrusted me with singing mainly Gospel music, preaching / teaching the word of God, moblising believers for the great commision, ecouraging / witnessing to others about Jesus , investing into our lord Jesus Christ by puting God first in my daily programmes '' Mathew 6 Vs 33'' and others spitual gifts . I can only put my talents into good use by always praying to God for knowledge and understanding his will upon my life. I can always ask God for guidance on how to use my talents with the intention to win many to Jesus Christ. I can avoid talking foolish about Jesus and venture myself into faithfulness because Jesus saved me. I should be profitable, active and not wick in the things of God so that I recieve abandance from God.

The Spirit showed me that the servant of one talent was faithful enough to return the one talent to the owner, but now I see that the Lord is emphasising profiteering. Multiplying, not custody. Not so?

Satisfaction, with whatever the lord has given me. As a well- educated Mature Male, My heart desires to be in some high places, like my friends, but when I remember that it is God who gives, I rest and get contented with what I am, or where He has placed me. I want to be a living testimony to all mature well educated people, that one does not necessarily need to be highly placed in society, inorder to witness for Christ. Eg, I pray from a lowly Church, among lowly people, but I love them. At my work place, I am, a senior Officer, but I sit in a lowly premise, but I love it. I am married to a lowly wife, but I love her very much. I do not crave for affluency of life, and I thank God, and pray that Many may learn from my lifestyles. When I am lowly, them I can challenge those who are proud, or exalt themselves, in Jesus` name. Amen

The Parable of the Talents

"For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey. Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. In like manner he also who got the two gained another two. But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
"Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them. He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.'
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
"He also who got the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.'
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
"He also who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter. I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.'
"But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I didn't scatter. You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest. Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents. For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn't have, even that which he has will be taken away. Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
