Lesson 10 – Revelation Gifts
Posted by ECO on October 26, 2021 at 3:56 pmPeter describes three revelation gifts: Wisdom, Knowledge and Discernment. Do you recognize the difference between these? How have you operated in them in your own walk with Jesus? Have you been able to use these gifts to guide your life or to help the people around you? What was that experience like?
Reflect on these questions and answer in the discussion.

I recognize the difference between these, but I also do see the overlap between them all. These are the gifts that I find most present in my own life, I think. I can't even count the number of times that I've just known something without understanding how or why. I also have visions, but I tend to avoid talking about those (except now, apparently) because I worry about the potential backlash from me admitting to them. It actually catches the attention of people around me as well because it can be so jarring. I've had people call me a medium before, but I would never claim that title, nor do I think it's accurate – I'm only using it for context.
Similarly, I am fortunate enough to have the gift of discernment as well. Very rarely do I not peg things for what they are, especially demonic or oppressive spirits. I have been wrong, but the more that I engage with this gift and the more that I genuinely thank the Lord for it, the more accurate it seems to become.
I use these gifts a lot – with my church community, with my family, mainly. I've become a sort of "consultant" to many people who may not have these gifts at this very moment. Just last night I found a demonic presence and cast it out. I just need to ensure that I don't fall into the trap of pride and forget where these gifts come from, but thus far, I haven't felt the temptation to claim the power as my own.

Yes I recognized the difference between word of wisdom, word of knowledge and discernment.
I experienced the word of wisdom when dealing with the church problems. And counselling is really needed in the gifts of wisdom.
This gifting is really needed as we daily walk with Jesus.

I do understand the difference between these gifts. I feel God has given me anointing into the gift of wisdom, which i thankfully use in my walk with God.
I’m gifted with the gift of discernment, but i need to focus more on the gift of healing, for me and others, in my walk with Christ.
Also, the impartation of these gifts, in my life, have been, gracious, beneficial, life-building, and Godly ordained.

I do understand the difference between these gifts. I believe I still have a lot to learn when it comes to these gifts. I feel like God has given me glimpses of the kind of wisdom I can share if I learn to walk righteously with the Lord. I believe I am gifted with discernment but I need to focus on healing myself and plucking the specks out of my own eye before I try and help others see what I see. It is definitely not an easy journey walking with Christ, but God has so much for us once we get through our trials.
