I BELIEVE GOD IS ABLE TO MAKE ALL GRACE ABOUND TO ME, SO THAT IN ALL THINGS AT ALL TIMES, HAVING ALL THAT I NEED, I WILL ABOUND IN EVERY GOOD WORK.
AS IT IS WRITTEN:
GOD HAS SCATTERED ABROAD HIS GIFTS TO THE POOR;
GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS ENDURES FOREVER.(2 Cor.9:8-9)

SPIRITUAL GIFTS
NOW ABOUT SPIRITUAL GIFTS, BROTHERS AND SISTERS,
I DO NOT WANT YOU TO BE IGNORANT. YOU KNOW THAT WHEN YOU WERE PAGANS, SOMEHOW OR OTHER YOU WERE INFLUENCED AND LED ASTRAY TO MUTE IDOLS. THERFORE I TELL YOU THAT NO ONE WHO IS SPEAKING BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD SAYS, "JESUS BE CURSED." AND NO ONE CAN SAY "JESUS IS LORD," EXCEPT BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. THERE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF GIFTS, BUT THE SAME SPIRIT. THERE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF SERVICE, BUT THE SAME LORD. THERE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF WORKINGS, BUT THE SAME GOD WORKS ALL OF THEME IN ALL MEN AND WOMEN.
NOW TO EACH ONE THE MANIFESTATION OF THE SPIRIT IS GIVEN FOR THE COMMON GOOD. TO THE ONE THERE IS GIVEN THE MESSAGE OF WISDOM, TO ANOTHER THE MESSAGE OF KNOWLEDGE BY MEANS OF THE SAME SPIRIT, TO ANOTHER FAITH BY THE SAME SPIRIT, TO ANOTHER GIFTS OF HEALING BY THAT ONE SPIRIT, TO ANOTHER MIRACULOUS POWERS, TO ANOTHER PROPHECY, TO ANOTHER DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN SPIRITS, TO ANOTHER SPEAKING IN DEFFERENT KINDS OF TONGUES, AND TO STILL ANOTHER THE INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES. ALL THESE ARE THE WORK OF ONE AND THE SAME SPIRIT, AND GOD GIVES THEM TO EACH ONE, JUST AS GOD DETERMINES.
THE BODY IS A UNIT, THOUGH IT IS MADE UP OF MANY PARTS; AND THOUGH ALL ITS PARTS ARE MANY, THEY FORM ONE BODY. SO IT IS WITH CHRIST. FOR WE WERE ALL BAPTIZED BY ONE SPIRIT INTO ONE BODY - WHETHER JEWS OR GREEKS, SLAVE OR FREE - AND WE WERE ALL GIVEN THE ONE SPIRIT TO DRINK.(1Cor. 12:1-12) NOW WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST, AND EACH ONE OF US IS A PART OF IT.(1Cor.12:27)
GOD' SPIRIT SAYS TO ME "AND NOW I WILL SHOW YOU THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY." GOD'S LOVE! AMEN.
