Prince reveals how to: Minister to others through the gifts Discern the counterfeit Witness through spiritual gifts Stir up the gift within you One of our greatest necessities in the church today is to demonstrate through the power of the Spirit that Jesus is alive and that His gospel is true. The world needs to see the manifestation of the presence of God. Believers need the ministry of the body of Christ through spiritual gifts. The Gifts of the Spirit reveals how we can fulfill both of these needs—practically and powerfully.

Book excerpt: God gives every Christian at least one spiritual gift to use in their ministry. But some Christians do not use it, too fearful of what others may think, including their own church family. Yet overcoming this trepidation is paramount to doing God’s work on earth. Drawing on his experience in the ministry, Dr. J. Terry Monahan offers practical insights on spiritual gifts and how to use them in this inspiring guide. When members of the earthly body of Christ freely and joyfully use their spiritual gifts together, they in turn will reflect Jesus. With knowledge and precision, Monahan examines the reasons God gives us spiritual gifts, their role in the church, and their importance to the spiritual health of Christianity as a whole. Monahan provides an in-depth explanation of each of the spiritual gifts listed in the Bible and helps you identify your own gifts. You’ll learn how your personality reflects your dominant spiritual gift and how to distinguish when the Holy Spirit is in and out of control of your life. In addition, Monahan gives examples of how spiritual gifts have been used by various people in different circumstances. Do not let the enemy keep you from using your spiritual gifts. Instead, embrace them, further the mission of the church, and live your life with purpose and joy.

Download or read book Understanding Spiritual Gifts written by Sam Storms and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are spiritual gifts? Storms has spent several decades teaching on the topic of the spiritual gifts and equipping believers in the faithful practice of God's gifts. Yet there remains a great deal of confusion about the nature of the gifts and how they best function in the body of Christ. In this comprehensive guide to the spiritual gifts, Storms addresses the many bizarre and misleading interpretations while confronting the tendency to downplay the urgency of spiritual gifts for Christian living and ministry. He explains how spiritual gifts--both the more miraculous and the everyday--are given to build up the body of Christ. God has graciously provided these "manifestations of the Spirit" so that believers might encourage, edify, strengthen, instruct, and console one another, all with a view to an ever-increasing, incremental transformation into the image of Jesus Christ. Throughout this guide, Sam Storms unpacks the glorious truth that there is a supernatural and divine energy or power that fills and indwells the body and soul of every Christian believer. Understanding Spiritual Gifts is useful as a reference to address common questions about the gifts, but it also serves as a training manual for using and exercising the gifts in ministry. It is perfect for any individual or group who wants to grow in their understanding of spiritual gifts for today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our churches have hardly begun to tap the potential in the pews. Many Christians have settled for far less than God intends because many have never discovered or developed their spiritual gifts. "An understanding of Ephesians 4:11-16 has changed my entire perspective on my Christian service. I discovered that one of my highest priorities must be equipping the saints for their work of service. Pursuing this objective I have made a second discovery. Exceedingly few believers are conscious of possessing a spiritual gift, and even fewer know what their gift is or what to do about it. My third discovery is that few things can be of greater assistance to a Christian in setting his own priorities or discerning the will of God than knowing his own gift. These are the discoveries that have motivated me to prepare this book," says the author. Included are chapters on: - The Definition of a Gift - The Distribution of the Gifts - A Description of the Gifts - The Distinctions Within the Gifts.
