Stirring up Our Gifts

God has given us gifts to use in this day to bring light to the darkness.

1 corinthians 14:1 "Pursue Love and desire and cultivate spiritual gifts"...

But those things are not given to us to collect dust on the shelf then just some day we can pick it up and expect it will be working the just fine. Your gift is like a camp fire, if you just leave it alone it will go out. We must fan the flame.

2 Timothy 1:6 (amp) That is why I would remind you to stir up (rekindle the embers of, fan the flame of, and keep burning) the [gracious] gift of God, [the inner fire] that is in you by means of the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination].

When i read this is was a refreshing verse. The power of laying on of hands is not just for the person receiving prayer but the person praying.
"We are not responsible for the results" We lay our hands on the sick, demonized and dead, out of obedience and a commandment to us as christians.
By praying more fan the flame of our gift and come in relationship with the Lord.
I also can promise that the more we step out in risk and obedience and the more healing, signs and wonders we will see. And the more we dont do anything the more we be 100 percent at not seeing a miracle.
