The multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own (Acts 4:32)
Early Christian church had a common faith in Jesus, enjoyed unity of spirit and purpose and used their wealth n sources to impact the world around them. Because of their common faith and objective they were of ONE heart n soul. Their only intention was to exalt the name of Jesus Christ. Even though they had their own assets, they did not see it as their own. All that we have it not our own, even spiritual blessings; it is all God's (car, house, money, time, relations) that he has entrusted on us as a steward surely he expects a return on his investment (parable of the talents Matthew 25:14-27).
Do we strive to exalt the name of Jesus together when we gather? How much of the God given talents/assets do we use for His Kingdom? Let us strive to exalt Him by using the talents HE has loaned us in HIS name and multiply n bring it back to Him! Let us remind ourselves of the day when He will ask us to give an account of all HE has given us !!
