DON'T ABANDON

"Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy when the body of elders laid their hands on you." 1 Timothy 4:14 AMP

Paul, from the verse above advised Timothy not to neglect the spiritual gift within him. Paul told the Corinthians, “I have fed you with milk and not meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able” (1 Corinthians 3:2). The Corinthians were still spiritual babies as far as Bible knowledge was concerned due to neglect of God’s Word. Forgetting God will cause regret.

Neglect prevents spiritual growth. Neglecting to study God’s Word will cause one to eventually disobey or out rightly reject God. When you neglect to pray, you are giving room for the wrong information entering into your spirit. What you neglect to do influences others; in other words, when you don't pray and apply the Word of God - it influences others to do likewise (i.e., our children, spouse, members of the church) and also contributes to others outside the body of Christ to remain lost. 

You can change it. Action is the key to victory. Choose to renew your mind and rededicate your commitment every day.

Further Scripture Study: Jeremiah 18:15 

Declare This: Heavenly Father, whatever it is I've neglected knowingly or unknowingly; I ask You to forgive me. From this day, I make a turn around and ensure I do all I have to do in Jesus name Amen.
