Supernatural Gifts and the Consequences of Their Use

In the intricate tapestry of faith and spirituality, the concept of supernatural gifts bestowed by Elohim (אֱלֹהִים) and El Elyon (אֵל עֶלְיוֹן) occupies a vital place. These gifts are not merely for personal gain; they are divinely intended to serve the collective, advancing the Kingdom of God (מַמְלֶכֶת אֱלֹהִים) and fostering a community grounded in love, support, and divine purpose. However, the misuse of these gifts can lead to severe consequences — not only for the individual but for the entire community.

The Nature of Supernatural Gifts

Supernatural gifts, often referred to as spiritual gifts, are divinely imparted abilities that enable individuals to contribute uniquely to the spiritual and physical well-being of their community. These gifts may manifest as wisdom, healing, prophecy, discernment, and others, as outlined in scriptures such as 1 Corinthians 12:4–11 (World Messianic Bible):

> “Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord. There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.”

These gifts are given with the intention of building up the body of believers and advancing the purposes of God on Earth. As emphasized in Sid Roth’s *The Incomplete Church: Unifying God’s Children*, these gifts foster unity among believers and empower the Church to fulfill its mission in the world (Roth, 2007).

The Abuse of Power

However, the power that comes with these gifts can become a double-edged sword. When individuals exploit their supernatural gifts for personal ambition or gain, they stray from their divine purpose. This abuse can manifest as manipulation, pride, and self-serving behaviors. Proverbs 16:18 (World Messianic Bible) warns:

> “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.”

This verse emphasizes the destructive potential of pride and the consequences of misusing one’s gifts. John Paul Jackson and John Sanford discuss how the misuse of spiritual authority can lead to *needless casualties of war* — both in the spiritual and physical realms (Jackson & Sanford, 1999). When power is abused, it is lost — not only in the sense that the individual forfeits their spiritual authority but also in that the community suffers from the resulting division and strife.

The Impact of Individual Actions

Each person’s life trajectory is intricately linked to their choices and actions. The Hebrew concept of *teshuva* (תשובה), or repentance, underscores the importance of recognizing one’s missteps and returning to the path of righteousness. Every decision contributes to the larger narrative of one’s life, influencing not only the individual but also their community.

In Galatians 6:7–8 (World Messianic Bible), we find:

> “Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but he who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit.”

This passage illustrates the principle of cause and effect in spiritual matters. When individuals use their gifts to serve others, they cultivate a harvest of blessings and protection. In *The Council of Light*, Danielle Rama Hoffman emphasizes the importance of intention in manifesting one’s desires, reminding us that focusing on the collective good aligns our actions with divine purpose (Hoffman, 2013). Conversely, neglecting or misusing these gifts leads to a spiral of negativity that feeds into the agenda of the Kingdom of Darkness.

Serving the Kingdom of God

The ultimate protection comes from using one’s supernatural gifts in service to others. When we align our actions with the heart of Elohim and El Elyon, we contribute to the establishment of His Kingdom on Earth. This alignment is reflected in the Hebrew word *shalom* (שָׁלוֹם), which denotes peace, wholeness, and harmony. Serving others fosters community and strengthens the bonds that unite us in our shared faith.

In Matthew 25:40 (World Messianic Bible), Yeshua (יֵשׁוּעַ) teaches us about the significance of service:

> “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’”

This scripture reinforces the notion that serving others is tantamount to serving God Himself. By using our gifts to uplift those around us, we fulfill our divine calling and protect ourselves from the pitfalls of darkness. Rick Warren, in *A Purpose Driven Life*, stresses that living with purpose and serving others leads to a life filled with joy and fulfillment (Warren, 2002).

Conclusion

The supernatural gifts bestowed by Elohim and El Elyon are powerful tools for good when used in accordance with divine purpose. Abusing these gifts not only jeopardizes the individual’s spiritual standing but also endangers the collective well-being. Each person’s choices matter; they shape destinies and influence the trajectory of the Kingdom of God.

Let us strive to utilize our gifts for the betterment of others, fostering a community that reflects the light and love of the Creator. In doing so, we not only safeguard our spiritual authority but also contribute to the establishment of a world where *shalom* reigns supreme, and the Kingdom of God flourishes. As we align with our true purpose, we can ensure that we are working in harmony with the divine will, avoiding the snares set by the adversary.
