8/26/2011 Developing Your Spiritual GiftsScriptures: 1 Corinthians 7:7, 1 Peter 4:10, 1 Corinthians 12:31
" But each man has his own gift from God." Every Christian has spiritual gifts. Everyone has some spiritual abilities. Our goal should be to find ours and use them for the Kingdom. The gifts of God are to be used in serving others, not for enjoyments. Spiritual gifts are not: natural talents, fruits of the spirit, or titles/positions. What is a spiritual gift? Its an ability from God that goes beyond your own natural ability. Why do we need them? So that we can fulfill a specific purpose of God. You are called to develop your gift or gifts. Your spiritual gift or gifts fit you perfectly. The Bible says: "Every man hath his proper gift from God." Proper means fitted, your gift is perfect for your life stage and life style. Spiritual gifts are developed, not earned. Developing our gift opens the door for other gifts. But what if we don't use our gift? "You will not receive any more." Until you try on your gift, you do not know how it fits and you miss hidden blessings God has in store. God has given you unique gifts that are just yours, let them begin to develop in your life.
