Review

 Spirit/Soul/Body; how the Lord speaks today.

 Spiritual Gifts: charismata: grace gifts …. Grace flows from Love.

 Given by a loving God for His glory and our benefit. Gifts are His expression of

Himself and not to be rejected or neglected by His children.

 Motivation Gifts (Romans 12) - Manifestation Gifts (1 Corinthians 12) - Ministry Office

Gifts (Ephesians 4)

 Review Motivation Gifts (see outline)

 Given to the believer by the Father; creation, spiritually - wired.

 Gifts of the Holy Spirit (1Corinthians 12)

“As He wills” – The Holy Spirit owns these and manifests them as He chooses. (1

Corinthians 12:11)

 1Corinthians 2:7-11 – Manifestation Gifts

 The word of wisdom – the Holy Spirit-given messages that bring God’s perspective to a given

circumstance, situation, or decision. (The source is the Mind of Christ) (General wisdom is

offered to all believers …. James 1:5,6)

 The word of knowledge – an utterance that gives information from the Holy Spirit, given for

a specific purpose and situation. This knowledge is not available by human reasoning, but

by the “insider” information of the Holy Spirit. (Examples from Jesus)

 The gift of faith (1 Corinthians 12:9) – the special ability to believe God and His word at an

exceptional level, usually for a specific issue/issues. (This is beyond general, saving faith.)

 Gifts of healings – the special ability, granted by the Holy Spirit to be an instrument in

healings that are divinely granted. The only explanation for these is that God intervened and

healed.

 Gifts of miracles – the special ability, given by the Holy Spirit, to accomplish supernatural

results, unexplained apart from God’s intervention.

 Prophecy – (see 1 Corinthians 14:1) – the special ability to hear/see what the Lord is saying,

doing to bring the building up, encouragement, motivation, correction, or comfort of

someone else. (1 Corinthians 14:3)

(REMEMBER: The Holy Spirit is our Guide, not a dictator. We must rely on our relationship

with the Lord, not someone’s “words” for our direction.

Even prophets are subject to other prophets …. 1 Corinthians 14:29-32
