But to each of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. This is why it says: "When he ascended on high, he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men." (What does "he ascended" mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions? He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.) Ephesians 4:7-10 NIV Christ was born, lived, died, rose and decended and ascended that he might give gifts to men. When Jesus was in the heart of the earth, he took the authority on earth back from Satan, who had tricked Adam and Eve out of their God-given authority. He brought out those who were awaiting him in Shoel and ascended on high to the seventh heaven. (He took captivity captive). He gave gifts to men on the earth to use, to fill the whole universe of the knowledge and power of God. Every believer is gifted by God to work in his kingdom. WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR GIFT? Will you cultivate your gift or let it lie dormant? I pray we will al accept and obey the Lord"s gift entrusted in us in the name of Jesus. He has paid a high price to purchase these gifts giving unto us.

Yes we must use our gift because Jesus had to sacrufices his life for us and to know that he had fought for us all well. We really need to be using our gifts like never before. He has brung us back from a lot. He have givien us some many chances and we don' t want to use our gift how dear us.
