Lesson 6 – The Gifts of the Holy Spirit
Are you familiar with the gifts of the Spirit listed in 1 Corinthians? Which of them have you heard talked about most often? Do you believe you carry any of these gifts? Which ones do you currently operate in? Which do you desire to grow in?
Reflect on these questions and answer them in the discussion.

I have been fortunate to have learned about the Gifts of the Spirit over many years and have had the opportunity to use the gift of Wisdom in my work. The experience of knowing that people have been healed after praying for them has helped me to grow. Speaking in tongues is a daily experience in my life. I am growing in the gift of Faith for others and desire to grow in the gift of knowledge. Actually I desire to grow in all the gifts.

@Connie it is wonderful that you are familiar with the gifts. Godly ambition for more of the Spirit and his gifts is a wonderful thing. Stay hungry!

I loved how Peter Barbour talked about the more we use a gift the more comfortable we become. I love to pray for people, but can be hesitant to step out in other giftings. Looking to be braver this next season.

@KarryMac very good. The puritans used to say it like this: “pray until you pray.” In sports today we say, “play until you play.” As you use any gift you move from feeling like you are faking it to actually doing it. The early stages can be so scary and feel “fake”, but as we master them, it becomes second nature.

I have understood the gifts of the spirit but am not yet familiar with all of them. I have heard prophecy as the most talked about lately. Yes I do believe I carry them alI yet, I currently operate in tongues and interpretation. I also operate in faith, wisdom, and healing. I desire to grow in the ones I have mentioned above, as well as the gift of knowledge.

@VGaffney thanks for sharing. It is wonderful to hear how many gifts you are operating in and how you want to grow in more of them. Keep cultivating a hunger for the things of God.

I am familiar with the gifts of the Spirit. I have talked a lot about healing miracles and tongues. I believe I carry the gift of tongues as well as healing. I currently operate in tongues. I desire to grow in the gift of healing because I believe it would help my family come to Christ. The word of God says people were convinced by the wonders and the power of God. I would really like to learn how to do healing on people.
