Spiritual Gifts
7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. 8 Therefore He says:
“When He ascended on high,He led captivity captive,And gave gifts to men.”
9 (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)
11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;

David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 23rd August 2024
A wife asked her husband to set the dinner table, but, inspired by their pastor’s recent sermon, he said, “Sorry, that’s not my spiritual gift.” She asked what his gift was. “Eating,” he said, to which she replied, “Well, if you want to exercise your spiritual gift, you’d better set the table!”
Do you have a spiritual gift? The biblical answer is yes. Romans 12:6 says, “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us” (NIV). A spiritual gift is a special ability to do certain works for God with power and with pleasure. It’s His way of enabling us to serve Him. The best way to discover your gift is by asking yourself what you most enjoy doing in the service of the Lord.
Jesus gives spiritual gifts to each one of us when we’re saved. Someone said that our talent and ability is God’s gift to us and what we do with it is our gift to Him. Pray today for God to show you how you can best use your gifts to serve Him in humility.
God distributes His gifts for His purposes and for the good of His people.
