  • There is a lot of teaching out there on the subject of spiritual gifts. But from my experience, much of fails to explain what I believe is the most important aspect of spiritual gifts. If you miss this about spiritual gifts, you've missed the entire point. I pray this video encourages and educates you on the topic of spiritual gifts.

    When I don't go to church for a while God reminds me that I'm supposed to be there to encourage others. It isn't all about us. It's about our brothers and sisters in the Lord.

      Totally agree. We haven't been to church in 2 years. I'm waiting on my husband to make a decision on which church we'll go to. Praying God will lead him. Not going to church really effects you spiritually, and makes it feel like you aren't apart of God's body.

      ​@@WeAreRoyalty7 I am saved, as is my husband. I had an encounter with the true and living God 7 years ago, and He brought me out of atheism. I was a backbiter, a hater of God, filled with a lot of pain and trauma but Jesus radically changed my heart and life. But since we moved to a new state, I've been waiting on my husband to pick a church for us. I believe a wife is to submit to her husband, and the husband is to lead his family, as per what the scriptures state so am waiting and praying faithfully. God supplied us with a church family in the past, and I have faith He will again and He will move my husband as He did once before.

She happened to reach out to me that same day. I shared my struggle with her, and through her God-given gift, she was able to encourage me in such a way that made my outlook on my circumstance change for the better.

      3. the CREATOR is not worthless and useless but in his own good time, he will lovingly let Jesus Christ resurrect back to life all loving, kind, and obedient human beings who died even thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, King David, Daniel, his Christ's disciples, all the Writers of the Bible, and many others so they can fully enjoy his and his Christ's eternal love, kindness, compassions, generosities, favors, and blessings for eternity as submissive and obedient subjects of the "Kingdom of God" under the loving rulership, guidance, and protection of his Chosen King and Ruler, his Christ.

      The BIBLE is the only book in the world that converts lowly and ordinary human beings into loving, kind, submissive, and obedient persons -
      The CREATOR KNOWS that ordinary and lowly human beings who understand and believe his Christ's BIBLICAL authority and teachings about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead" are loving, kind, and submissive human beings who -

      2. are capable of treating their co-human beings with love, kindness, and respect

      The Bible says we as the Body of Christ are the church. The physical building is not the church. Churches have become a business these days and I’ve steeped away from them and I’ve grown so much in my walk since separating myself from the physical building. Just talking to someone about the Lord is church, getting with friends and discussing God is church. So many think the building is the church but it’s our physical bodies that’s the church. I feel you on the money thing. I once belonged to a church that put so much time into preaching why we need to tithe and when it came time to put money in the dish the pastor would sit and watch who was tithing.

    Came up with the same thing. Merciless teacher.
    I say that as a joke. Lowest score was mercy, highest teaching. Which fits earlier results and what I do whenever I have a chance.

    Allen, I think we must be related---I totally agree with you on everything!!! I guess I have just had a great background in the Bible and am still digging in it. I was raised in a Christian home. My parents were gifted with VISION!!!! Not matter where they were --dad was in the Air Force--the would either help start a church or build one up. Then after the AF, God sent them to Las Vegas--mom cried the whole way-they were from Alabama!!! Oh, how they were used there, then later they "retired" to Arkansas for 35 years--they went to a very small old church--well that Vision -helped their church grow and grow. They served the Lord together for 73 years of marriage!!! They went home in 2014--God took the gently, and I am so thankful---I have severe Lupus --they helped me so much in so many ways.--I am an RN--I know my Spiritual gift--love and encouraging and healing---MDs' would always ask me why I didn't go on to medical school!!! The last 4+ years I have been home bound--I still pray for others and send out cards and emails.

    This message is important for people to understand. I am convinced (and teach) that some of our most powerful spiritual battles are won simply by how we live out daily lives in front of others. If we fall on hard times (and we will) others will be watching how we handle it. If we get through with some kind of that "joy of the Lord" or that "peace that passes understanding", not complaining or blaming others then when people around us start to go through those hard times they will want to know how we did it. That is when those "smaller/insignificant gifts" (from our perception anyway) such as encouragement, faith, wisdom, etc. can be more powerful and have more effect on someone (and the kingdom) than the best preached Gospel message ever.
    Many people seem to lose sight of the fact that it may take 10+ good Godly influences on someone before they will begin to even consider God. You may be #3 in that list of 10 and may not see the effects soon or even in this lifetime. I think that causes many people to think their gift is not important and will stop using it to some degree, why bother it makes no difference (lie from the enemy). You never know what the seeds you are planting, watering or nurturing today will produce in the future. I think many things we do we will not know until we get to heaven and either hear from those people directly we impacted or God shows us how it all connected together.
    Never think you or your gift is insignificant. You many not be affective at the moment because sometimes God has to send us through a "season of training" to be able to use those gifts more effectively. You may be in that season of training now, being prepared to do way more than you ever imagined. I know, I walked away from God for a while because I thought I was not effective. Looking back now I see there was more training/preparing for me to do before I could really start doing things for Him effectively.

    This is an exciting and powerful truth and encouragement. The really good news is that these gifts that are given by the Spirit of God, are given to every human being for the benefit of other human beings. God did not limit His kingdom and operation to only "Christians". Jesus is the savior of ALL men, especially of those who believe. WE were born again (the entire human race, including Adam) when Crist rose from the dead, according to Peter. Some many people are not even aware of what God has already done in their lives and that is the joy of evangelism, bringing people to the awareness that they are the offspring of God (Acts 17) and they have an inheritance. Truly good and transforming news.

    This is such a great word! The topic of spiritual gifts is so necessary to empower and educate the believer to step into and pour into the body of Christ, the church. I’ve been attending a bible believing church that holds securely to biblical truth. However after attending for a couple years notice it’s not really growing. The church was established I think 20 plus years ago and they still meet in a hotel. Obviously the church is made up of the people and it doesn’t bother me that the pastor refuses to go into debt over a mortgage and is trusting God to provide the money needed to build or own a physical church in His timing. But, I do know one spiritual gift God has blessed me with is glorifying Him and potentially others through praise and worship in song. Unfortunately I’ve offered to volunteer however they see fit and did advocate that the worship team is a place I feel called, but because the pastor holds that position in higher regard, one must commit to refraining from alcohol completely. I did grow up with an alcoholic father and then stepfather and then was previously married to an alcoholic. Therefore I absolutely recognize the devastation alcoholism has, and I only consume alcohol very seldom with my current husband, typically in a celebratory manner and never to the point of drunkenness. I thankfully don’t have any sinful desires with alcohol and don’t abuse. I’m also conscientious of others who do struggle with that sin and would use discernment to not do anything to cause a brother to fall. Point being, I now feel as if I’m not being used as God desires but have resigned that perhaps it’s not God’s timing for me to use that particular gift yet. That perhaps I need to first be convicted in that area about giving up alcohol completely before God will use that gift to serve others in the body. Or is this a legalistic way my church, which otherwise is very biblically strong, is forming their rules. Could this be why they aren’t growing? Is this typical in other churches? I mean I wouldn’t necessarily argue that say a pastor should refrain from alcohol completely, but then again is there biblical support for this argument? I know the Bible says to be sober minded but also many people including Jesus drank wine moderately. I watched a pretty unbiased video on this topic by Matt Winger (I believe that’s his name) lol. Thanks for your thoughts, I want to be used by God and walk in His will for my life, to glorify Him and be used by Him!

The gifts are expressions of His love… Why wouldn’t he expect us to manifest them all the time. Also, how would you know if he’s telling you to use them or not… At that point it becomes pretty subjective. I don’t think you’d say the same thing about the fruit of the Spirit… When we are to manifest, love, joy, peace, etc.

    Enjoy the videos! Some questions after watching your videos on spiritual gifts which were well done! Do you think worship leading or singing are spiritual gifts? Also if gifts were given when we became Christians, it would seems some people already had spiritual gifts before they became Christians and before they use them for the church. (ie leadership, teaching). (btw: I think parable of the talents is in Matthew 25:14-30)

    I realize Allen felt called to produce a message to encourage people to use their gifts (even if they think it insignificant) but It seems obvious that the most important point is "the gifts are given to edify (build up) the body of Christ (the church)" - Love is always U B4 Me! Too many so called 'gifted Christians' view their gifts through the lens of the 'self centered flesh' - the default position. "It's all about me" is the attitude that is too prevalent. That's why 1 Cor 13 (the famous love chapter) is sandwiched between the 'gifts' chapters. YMMV.
