We tend to go after possession and to let our possession define our worth. But that is getting the order wrong. We must seek first the Giver and His gifts will come automatically. Have a relationship with God and be a child of God and we will have a secure identity that comes with authority and protection. It is relating to God that gives us joy and not because of our possessions.
Lessons:
- Seek the giver over the gifts. Our being and our identity are more important than our possessions. Don't let our possessions define us or others. Our relationships with God are more valuable than power. Our identity gives us authority and power. Get right with God first.
- True joy comes from a relationship with God. We are secure in Christ.
- Authority & Protection comes from our relationship with God --- as children of God. Hence, have the courage to go and share the gospels, proclaiming His kingdom, power, and healing. etc,
