There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them - 1 Corinthians 12:4.
The Word of wisdom, the word of knowledge,
faith, gift of healings, working of miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits,
different kinds of tongues and interpretation of tongues are the different kinds
of gifts of the Holy Spirit. For
to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of
knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to
another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of
miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another
different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues - 1 Corinthians
12:8-10.
Each of us are given
different spiritual gifts according to the grace of God and His will. We have different
gifts, according to the grace given to each of us - Romans 12:6. But one and
the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually
as He wills - 1 Corinthians 12:11. We should use whatever gift we have received
for the profit of all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one
for the profit of all - 1 Corinthians 12:7.
Let us desire the spiritual
gifts eagerly. But earnestly desire the best gifts - 1 Corinthians 12:31. God had given us the spiritual gifts to serve others. Each of you should use whatever gift
you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its
various forms - 1 Peter 4:10. May we discover the spiritual gift given by God to
us and use it with humility for His glory. Do not neglect the gift that is in
you, which was given to you - 1 Timothy 4:14.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for
the spiritual gifts You have given us to glorify You. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Amen.
