YOUR GIFTS

YOUR GIFTS

1 Corinthians 12:1-11

Dev:- “But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:” (v. 7)

    When we come to know the Lord, we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Part of the package of the Holy Spirit are the gift of the Spirit. The word of God says the Spirit gives them to each one as He wishes (1 Corinthians 12:11). That is why none of us can call it our own. It is called the gift of God.

I believe the word gift already suggest that it is kept in our charge. We are then a steward to manage it unbehalf of the owner (1 Corinthians 4:1). These gifts are for the edification and confort of the body of Christ (the church) (1 Corinthians 14:3). These gifts are divided to different groups. The first is revelational gifts. These are the gifts that makes us experience God’s revelation. They are the word of wisdom, word of knowledge and discerning of spirits. The second is the gift of power. They are gifts of faith, working of miracles and the gift of help. The third is the vocal or inspirational gifts. They are gifts of prophesy, diverse kind of tongue and interpretation of tongues.  

You can activate these gifts in your life by prayer and fasting and service to God. They can be activated when you are living by faith and worshipping the Lord. We have seen it in the Bible that they can be activated by men of God laying hands on you (2 Timothy 1:6). Remember they are for the edification and comfort of all. Please use them to minister to people in body of Christ. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, let your gifts manifest in me to make me a blessing.

“YOUR GIFT WILL CREATE YOUR VALUE WHEN YOU KEEP USING THEM”
