God's Words of Wisdom from the Bible

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: 1 Corinthians 12:4-6  "There are diversities of gifts, but he same Spirit.  There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.  And there are differences of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all."

Gifts in these passages refers to Spiritual capacities that God gives individual Christians, through which He may strengthen His people.  Diversities, differences, diversities:  The first portion of the "gift formula" expresses diversity.  Same Spirit, same Lord, same God.  The second expresses unity.  Though people are gifted differently by God, God and His work are unified.

These verses contain six key teaching on spiritual gifts: (1) there are different kinds (2) Each comes from the Holy Spirit (3) No gift indicates a person has "more of" than Spirit than for the "same God works all of them in men" (4) Each person has a spiritual gift (5) These are distributed sovereignly by the Spirit (6) They function within the church for the "common good" of the body.

Today's Hymn: "Spirit of the Living God"

Spirit of the Living God, Fall fresh on me
Spirit of the Living God, Fall fresh on me
Melt me, mold me, fill me, use me
Spirit of the Living God, Fall fresh on me

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit  How thankful we are for the gifts that you give us as believers.  Help us Abba Father, to use the gifts that you have most graciously bestowed upon us, to bring Glory and Honor unto Thy Name.
                                                                                                     Amen

Today's Biblical Truth: "Every individual believer has a vital role assigned by God Himself"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual defeat in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T",  God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,
Cindi
