1. The Word of Knowledge
God has all
knowledge (
Colossians 2:3
) but
does not give us all of His
knowledge at one time.
“The word of knowledge is a supernatural revelation by the Holy Spirit of information that refers to the past or present.” Slide13
1. The Word of Knowledge
Jesus operated in the gift of the word of knowledge:
In
John 4:17-18
Jesus received a word of knowledge about a woman’s marital situation, past and present. Slide14
2. The Word of Wisdom
God has all wisdom (
Colossians 2:3
) but does not give us all of His wisdom at one time.
“The word of wisdom is a supernatural revelation by the Holy Spirit concerning the divine purpose of God.”Slide15
2. The Word of Wisdom
The wisdom of God helps us to apply the knowledge of God.
Supernatural wisdom from the Holy Spirit is knowing what to do when you don’t know what to do. Slide16
3. Discerning of spirits
“The gift of discerning of spirits gives us insight into the spirit world – good and bad.”
Elisha discerned the presence of
angels
(
2 Kings 6:16-17
)Slide17
4. The Gift of Faith
“The gift of faith is a supernatural sudden infilling of faith from God, usually in a difficult situation, to enable us to confidently believe God that as we act or speak for Him, it shall come to pass.”Slide18
4. The Gift of Faith
The gift of faith enables you to use your faith to
receive
an immediate miracle or to
wait
for a miracle.
Elijah used the gift of faith on many occasions:
Calling for a drought (
1 Kings 17:1
).
Believing God for supernatural provision of food (
1 Kings 17:2-6
).Slide19
5. The Gifts of Healing
“The gifts of healing are given by the Holy Spirit for the supernatural curing of all sickness and disease without the help of human medical skill.”Slide20
5. The Gifts of Healing
In the
G
reek this statement is in the plural and reads
gifts of healings
showing there are many ways of healing that God gives us.
And there are…Slide21
5. The Gifts of Healing
Laying on of hands (
Mark 16:20
)
Transferable anointing (
Acts 19:11-12
)
Divine instruction (
John 5:8-9
)
The Name of Jesus (
Acts 3:6
)Slide22
6. The Working of Miracles
“The working of miracles is a supernatural intervention or temporary suspension of the natural order of things through the power of the Holy Spirit.”Slide23
6. The Working of Miracles
The working of miracles is similar to the gifts of healings but not limited to healing.
Multiplication of food (
John 6:5-14
)
Raising the dead (
John 11:43-44
)
Stilling a storm (
Mark 4:39
)
Walking on water (
Mark 6:48
)Slide24
7. Prophecy
“The gift of prophecy is speaking the mind of God under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.”Slide25
7. Prophecy
The Apostle Paul taught that this gift of prophecy is for the building up and the comfort of the church.
He also encourages us to seek after this gift (
1 Corinthians 14:3-5
). Slide26
8. Tongues
“Tongues is the supernatural utterance by a person under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in an unknown language.”Slide27
8. Tongues
As we have seen in
1 Corinthians 12:10
there are different kind of tongues.
Essentially although rather simplistically we can say that there are
private tongues
(our own supernatural prayer language) and
public
tongues
(for the benefit of others).Slide28
9. The Interpretation of Tongues
“Interpretation of tongues is the supernatural revelation of the meaning of what has been said through a public tongue to the church.”Slide29
9. The Interpretation
of Tongues
The Apostle Paul tells us that speaking in tongues in a public meeting and the interpretation of the tongues are equivalent to prophecy
which edifies the church
(
1
Corinthians
14:5
).
Slide30
How do you operate in the gifts of the Holy Spirit?
Yes, the Holy Spirit gives these gifts as He wills (
1 Corinthians 12:11
) but can we know why He chooses some people?
The Apostle
P
aul tells us to desire the spiritual gifts (
1 Corinthians 14:1
). Slide31
How do you operate in the gifts of the Holy Spirit?
As we have seen these gifts are to benefit others, not ourselves. So
if
we are asking for the gifts of the Holy Spirit, are we asking with the right motives (
James 4:3
)? Slide32
It’s time to move in the gifts…
