• Gifts of the Spirit

    Published: Nov. 24, 2008
    video 1 COR 14:20-33 – we should not just wait to speak out in the Spirit. Speak when the Spirit leads us. Healing and deliverance come by our just letting loose and moving in the Spirit. Do not be asleep in the Spirit. FEAR – we are fearful when we say “what if?”. God is yea and amen. Mature thinking is needed. Tongues are for unbelievers. Prophecy is often for a specific person. Each person (everybody) has a tongue, a song, a prophecy. All can prophesy, but one by one. The Holy Spirit never forces Himself on a person. God is not a god of confusion. 1 COR 12 – 9 gifts of the Spirit. The gifts are in me. Get trained here so owe can be supernatural out there. Primary Gift – do you know your primary gift? Must understand this. Teaching is a “motivation”. Exhortation is to motivate people. Liberality is giving to those in need. Leadership is diligence. Helps is the desire to help others in situations. QUESTION: What motivates me? Most of us have one or more gifts at work. Use the gifts, never limit myself. Prime the pump. 1 COR 14:1 – desire spiritual gifts but especially gift of prophecy. Prophecy can be as simple as a word of encouragement or love. ROM 12:3 - We must be fitted together with others to be part of the body of Christ. Jointed in the same way parts of an individual body must be jointed. The body cannot function without people knitted together. EPH 4 – ministry purpose is to “equip the saints” so we can do the work.
