I am trying to understand my gift. I was told to learn about the gift, cultivate it and utilize it for the glory of God. Some individuals would see this as a taboo that should not be studied or even talked about.
I have been told to be cautious of who I tell about this gift, because many people just do not understand the spiritual realm. Basically, the unknown scares people so they refuse to accept that their is such a gift from God because they haven't experienced it themselves. The ultimate conclusion being that the gift of 'seeing' is from Satan. Placing this gift within the demonic category of spiritualism. Labeling this gift as a psychic instead of Seer. If you believe as I do, that everything under the sun belongs to God, that God is in control, and that God is the creator and perfector of our lives. If God is the creator of the universe and created even the stars, moon, planets, and all life forms. Do you not believe then that He that is Spirit would not also create spiritual gifts. There are many gifts that the Lord gives through the Spirit and each of them came from the Spirit and are used for the ultimae purpose of the Spirit.
Do not let those individuals that doubt your gift to discourage you from cultivating and and understanding it to the full knowledge God has in store for you. Feel priviledged that God chose you. If the gift of "seeing" is dedicated to God and His purpose for your life then do not fear the gift He has given you. Live life with the confidence that God is Good and through Him that we serve we can rest assured that He has a reason for bestowing this gift upon us.
If you allow fear to rule your thoughts then your gift can become dangerous grounds for you. If Satan can make you fear this gift then you can destroy God's plan for you. Doubting God and His glory can be more detrimental to you than breathing your last breathe of this life. The confusion that can set in when you doubt based upon others around you convincing you to doubt yourself will destroy you. Our God is not a God of confusion, but a God of order and a God with a purpose. The more of Jesus you have within your heart the more you can fight Satan's attempt to distract and discourage you from God's plan for the gift he has given you.
"Stand firm on your conviction of Jesus Christ and He will see you through. All things are possible with God, but with humans many things are impossible."
If you realize that you are doubting yourself because of human opinions, I advice you to pray fearfully to God, and ask for His direction and understanding knowing that He can see you through this road bump. It is so difficult to find individuals that understand this gift, that it is best to just allow God to guide you and direct you to clarification. Pray for insight and discernment of your gift. Remember all knowledge, wisdom and understanding come from the Lord, so ask Him for clear direction of your gift.
