1 Corinthians 12:8-10,28 - For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues…And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues.
Acts 13:2 - While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
1 Corinthians 13:1 - If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
Application:
· Has the mind of God been imparted to me by the Holy Spirit?
· Have I been gifted to help others? Have I been gifted to administrate?
· My journey may not result from a planning session but may result from the Spirit’s initiative.
· No matter how I am gifted, if I do not speak in love, it will be nothing but noise.
