1 Timothy 4:14 - 'be not careless of the gift in thee, that was given thee

through prophecy, with laying on of the hands of the eldership'

Why is it that things we desire to do for God are many times neglected?*We keep wishing, wanting and praying for great things of God, but we*are still in the same spiritual rut we were in 5 years ago? Well, God*works as he is allowed to in us. You see, God will move according*to your ability and space to receive. In some cases, the person you have*made your spiritual "head" can sometimes block your progress! Many times*we belong to churches and ministries that limit us because of heretic teachings*or their desire to play God in our lives rather than teach us the Word.*Just because mama and grandma grew up in that church does not mean*that's where God wants you. Even though your pastor may be the bomb to*them, that doesn't mean that he will allow your personal ministry to be*birthed! Even though you know everyone there and it's a real comfort*zone for you does not mean that God will ever use you there. We cannot*get caught up in the old fashion mindset where you die in the church*you were born in! If you are being limited, you must go where you can*be blessed of God. Of course, everyone will not do great things in the*Kingdom. But many of us have the desire and the call, yet we are*limited to our surroundings.
*
If you are packing for a trip, and everything does not fit in the*suitcase you have, which would you rather do? Take things out and leave*them behind, or get a larger suitcase and keep everything you had in*it? Well, imagine that's your life. Are you leaving things out? Are*you putting your dreams and purpose aside because they don't fit where*you are, or are you making room for what God has given you? Don't sell*yourself short because you are apart of the wrong fellowship, and*please don't get caught up in the lie that you should never leave a*church! Leave and find the right church if you have to and don't look*back. You must protect your family, your call, and your purpose and*you cannot be concerned with what people think about you or will say*about you. Find your place in God's Kingdom and stop wasting time.*God wants to use you, but you must make room for him.
