Tonight is the least session of our study of Spiritual Gifts. So, I thought a little re-cap was in order. Below are some memorable moments, quotable quips and verses for vision. My prayer is that we will get our lives in gear with the stuff God has geared our lives with.
session # 1
We can experience a fresh move of God and sense His presence as we study these gifts and come to appreciate and even understand how God is building His church.
1 Peter 4:10 (NLT) --- God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.
If you has no restricts on your life (time, money, health, etc…), what would you like to accomplish for God? What spiritual gifts would help you succeed?
Gift of the Spirit – Fruit of the Spirit = NOTHING, zero, empty
session # 2
Ephesians 4:16 (NLT) --- He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.
All spiritual gifts are given and meant for the purpose of serving others.
Leaders have vision. They see the future before others see the future and direct the body to embrace it. That motivates people, gets them fired up to be part of the body.
session # 3
What puts people on the edge of their edge and on the edge of life? Often it is the unknown or the mystery that we come across in life. In the church the people on the edge most often are those who challenge and push us to get out of the building and away from our meetings and begin to touch the world for Christ.
All the spiritual gifts are for sharing, and literally none of the gifts have any value unless we share. Just like a team, everyone has to play their position
session # 4
The first place of spiritual gifts in the life of God's kids is seen in a willingness to serve!
Colossians 3:16 (NLT) --- Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.
The church has shifted its way of teaching and of praise. Used to the songs taught theology more than the sermon as it was meant to praise God. Now songs are centered more on praise while the messages are intended to teach Biblical truth and theology.
session # 5
1 Corinthians 14:12 (NLT) --- …Since you are so eager to have the special abilities the Spirit gives, seek those that will strengthen the whole church.
When a Christian discovers and begins to use their Spiritual gifts, ...they will experience and learn ...Joy in life, energy to serve, purpose, success, place in ministry, fulfillment…
Spiritual gifts are intended to make the church effective in following Jesus. We want to be highly effective followers of Jesus that lead others to do the same.
NOTE: there will be not be a devotion tomorrow as I will be at Unleash.
