Jesus gives Himself to His church through the Holy Spirit. We must never grieve the Spirit that lifted us from our dark pits of sin and death. Ephesians 4 tells us that when Jesus gave gifts to humanity, He gave us five equippers. Too often, we have seen this list as titles or offices, yet they were considered gifts by Paul. kAm(92E 4@F=5 492?86 7@C FD :7 H6 4@F=5 D66 E96D6 8:7ED 2D A2CED @7 y6DFD E92E ?665 E@ 8C@H :?

The glorious gifts of Pentecost that God distributed among broken humanity came from Jesus’ seat at His right hand. The grace comes through Resurrection Power but is distributed because Christ’s ascension is higher than any other name on earth. His crucifixion, resurrection and ascension are the precursor to the most mind-bending of all blessings on earth. Jesus sends His own Spirit to live in us. kAm%96 D2>6 $A:C:E E92E C2:D6D r9C:DE 7C@> E96 5625 =:G6D :? FD] (6 92G6 C6DFCC64E:@?

Nowhere in the Bible are we instructed to be lazy or uninterested in making a good life for ourselves. The first command is to produce and multiply with the extension to subdue the earth and have dominion over it. Within us is a drive to accomplish great things or to make a difference in our days. kAm$@>69@H[ 2=@?8 E96 H2J[ x A:4<65 FA E96 :562 E92E v@5 5:5?’E H2?E FD E@ 249:6G6 DF446DD[ 2?5 x H2D HC@?8]k^AmkAmx?

“How good and pleasant it is for men to dwell together in unity.” The Psalm, written three thousand years ago, spoke of unity and the blessings that flow throughout the lands when humanity is united. The book of Genesis says all things are possible if we unite. Still, all these years later, we are perhaps the most easily disconnected humans in history. kAmtG6?

I was fortunate to participate in several mission trips during my youth. My first trip was to Mexico, where I ministered to some of the poorest people outside the city of Reynosa. Some lived in a place called “the dump,” where, as far as the eye could see, there were just heaps of trash. kAm%96D6 =:EE=6 49:=5C6?
