These manifestations are delivered by the sovereign hand of God (1 Corinthians 12:11). All Christians receive manifestations. The more willing the Christian, the more manifestations there are for them. The less willing the believer, the more a manifestation passes on to another who is saying: Lord, here am I, send me. This is why it appears that God is picking favorites. God is not picking favorite vessels; He simply is picking willing vessels. God is interested in getting His work done (1 Corinthians 12:7). In general, manifestations are given by the moment for the ministry moment.

Please know that God works in all of His children, but God pours Himself through willing vessels. Many Christians do not like the idea of God healing people through them, casting out demons, performing miracles, speaking in tongues, or speaking words directly from God’s mouth. God desires to manifest Himself through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit in any way He deems necessary to further the work of His Kingdom.

Spiritual gifts is a very important part of church growth. This is why so many body members put such an emphasis on these gifts. Many members believe that discipleship cannot start unless the person is saved. This is not true. Use of spiritual gifts is a part of the discipleship process. Most Christians believe the “great commission” is going into the world to get people saved. This is not the great call. God has called us to use our gifts to accomplish the great commission.

If we expect God to use us, He will be ready and willing to do so. God knows who needs ministry and whom He needs to use to get the job done. When you are in line with the above three items, God is bound to use you. It is important not to set standards on God. Be careful not to tell Him how you want to be used and what gifts you want Him to put in you. Fear of the unknown is a big problem with many Christians in allowing God to do anything He wants with and through them. In any case, the important thing is being willing and expectant of God to do a great and mighty work by using His gifts in you.

God does not activate a gift(s) without placing the Life of Christ within the born-again believer. Once that happens, He shouts out a calling within the indwelt Christian so that the believer will NOT use the gifting on himself/herself, which is self-abasement.
