War Cry

Last night i went to War Cry, which is the Adelaide Congress Hall's youth service, which is on Friday nights. At the moment a group of youth are leading the whole night, and the youth group on a whole.
2 youth gave a short talk/preach. I am going to blog on the 2nd talk, it was really powerfull, and Christ fully spoke through this person. She spoke on Envy, saying that it is "a problem that Noone has but is the most common problem". Cause noone wants to admitt that they are envious.
She related the parrable of the ten talents to what she was saying. Like God has given each of us talents, and we are all talented at different things and at different talents. And quite often when we have say 2 talents, we say to the people that have one talent to move over and get out of the way, which causes those with only one talent to bury their talent, and not use it. But when some one comes along with 5 talents we quite often what to "scratch their eyes out" and wish they werent' there, and can't praise God for their talent. That is envy.
In the church everyone has talent of different sorts and levels, but we are whole when everyone is working in their talents and giftings, no matter what level they have. Cause when all the people with one talent bind together, they become an Army, which is hard to defeat, but if we put down those that only have the one talent, we may be causing them to bury their talent, and if everyone with one talent buried their talent, the fight force would be a lot smaller, and a lot less people will hear about God's love for them. Cause there is less people with 2 talents, and even less with 5 talents.
That is the basics of the preach.
So those of that have been given 5 talents, need to remember that it is not all about them, and what the do, but they should be encouraging the people with one or 2 talents, to walk in and use what God has given them.
Those with two talents need also need to be encouraging those that have one talent to walk in and use it. But also they need, to be learning from those that have 5, and encouraging and praying for them, cause it's not easy "up the top", with all the attacks from the enemy that alone attacks from other people. So yeah this is what we should being doing for those that have 5 talents, instead of tearing them down so to the same level.
And those that have one talent, be encouraged, YOU HAVE A MIGHTY PART TO PLAY IN THIS WAR, band together with each other and with those that have more than you, THEN TOGETHER WITH CHRIST WE ARE AN ARMY THAT CAN'T BE BEAT.

I hope you understand all that i have blogged, if not I pray that Christ will reveal what i meant, and would reveal/teach you though it.

God bless,
Lux
