We Are Empowered To Desire All That God Has

"Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy." 1 Corinthians 14:1 NIV

We are to follow after the way of God’s love and we are to eagerly desire His Spiritual gifts, especially that we may be used by God to prophecy His eternal Truth’s. We are to desire to love people as God loves them and we are to desire that God speaks His specific Truth’s through us, so that people will know His will and desires for their lives! We are to eagerly desire to prophesy so that we may be used by God to assist in making peoples lives complete and full; so that they might have life and have it more abundantly! We are to desire that we may be used by God to heal those who are sick. We are to desire that God will use us as vessels to perform His miracles through, so that when the worldly powers have or offer no solutions, God will be the answer and the saving solution! We are to desire that God gives us full and complete knowledge and wisdom of His Truth. We are to desire that God empowers us to discern all things, so that we will never have to question the legitimacy of anything. We are to desire that God will speak and pray through us, in whatever tongue is needed, so that His will and desires are always spoken through us in this world! Then we are to desire that God will interpret His tongues through us, so that His message will be shared and heard and understood by the masses! These are the desires of us who are following after the way of God’s love, because these are the desires of God Himself! God has given these Gifts of His Spirit to man, and God is the One Who works these gifts through us! God is love and these gifts are the actions of His love! Those who are born of God will desire the things that are of the Seed that they have been born of! We cannot help but to eagerly desire to truly love and not just in word, but with the power and demonstration of the Spirit of God that is within us! This is who we are in Christ; this is the mind and heart that has been given to us by God. This is the Incorruptible Seed that we have been born again of! This is how the Vine is that we are connected to. We have been recreated in this image, in true righteousness and true holiness! If we are born again, this is the way that we will desire to live. We can only be who we have been created to be!
