Chapter 43 - USE YOUR TALENT FOR GOD'S GLORY

Father God reminded me the other week, "Beware, don't change it." When I was thinking to change something thru my mind.

God gave us special gifts, talents and powers, but we should use it only for good, not for bad, for God's glory! Not for your own selfish interest only.

I was riding a bus the other day, and heard a good voice of a singer on the radio. However the lyrics were all bad, about hopelessness and brokenness always.

And I heard the Lord spoke, "It's a waste. Her talent is a waste."

And I replied in my mind as well, "I don't like her and her songs ever since."

"So do I," he replied.

Remember that words have power! It's like a spell, a dark spell to anyone who hears. When bad words were continually or repetitively sang or recited all over again, it registers to our mind. It will come to reality, and bad thoughts grew inside our heads.

Bad words, bad thoughts brought bad actions.

That day (Saturday), coincidentally, a movie was playing on the TV. It's about gifted people with special powers.

I said this in my head, "They used their power in doing evil."

"Yes," the Lord replied (in my head). "Actually, they exist in the world, in reality. There are people who have special powers in this world, but they are not like you. They are bad."
