    1. God gives spiritual gifts to His team to use

    2. There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: 1 Cor 12:4-7 (NKJV)

    3. There are three different groups of gifts. A. Manifestation gifts B. Serving gifts which are found in Romans and 1 Peter C. Equipping gifts which are found in Ephesians 4:11

    4. 1.What does “manifestation of the Spirit “ mean? An uncovering a shining forth a clear display

    5. There are nine different ways the Holy Spirit reveals His nature through believers to the body of Christ Why is this important? It is one of the ways we come to know the person and work of the Holy Spirit.

    6. 2. A description of the Gifts. A. Word of Wisdom: When God reveals or makes known to believers a portion of His own wisdom- otherwise unknown to the individual.

    7. Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a complaint against the Hebrews by the Hellenists, because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution. 2 Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, "It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables. 3 Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; 4 but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word." 5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch, Acts 6:1-5 (NKJV)

    8.  whom they set before the apostles; and when they had prayed, they laid hands on them. 7 Then the word of God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith. 8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and signs among the people Acts 6:6-8 (NKJV)

    9.  Then there arose some from what is called the Synagogue of the Freedmen (Cyrenians, Alexandrians, and those from Cilicia and Asia), disputing with Stephen. 10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke. Acts 6:9-10 (NKJV)

    10. 2. Word of Knowledge. Here God reveals a little of His omniscience, otherwise unknown to us. In wisdom God helps us to solve problems. In Knowledge He helps us to know something.

    11. 3. Discerning of Spirits. A God given ability to know if something is of God or an evil spirit.

    12. Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling. 17 This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, "These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation." 18 And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 (NKJV)

    13. as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. Romans 8:14-17 (NKJV)

    14. 4. A supernatural ability to believe God to do the extraordinary through us. This is not the same as regular faith. It is different in form and function.

    15. Notice the four levels of faith: A. Rational, logical reasoning B. Saving faith; this is the faith that God gives you to come into the kingdom (Eph 2:8) C. The fruit of faith. Galatians 5:22 speaks of faithfulness, the ability to keep on keeping on.

    16. D. The Gift of faith. Acts 3 is a great example! Daniel 3:17 and the fiery furnace is a great example of where God gave them a supernatural faith to believe!

    17. 5. The Gift of Miracles A revealing of Gods power operating through the Spirit of God flowing through the child of God.

    18. Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church. 6 And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were keeping the prison. 7 Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, "Arise quickly!" And his chains fell off his hands. 8 Then the angel said to him, "Gird yourself and tie on your sandals"; and so he did. And he said to him, "Put on your garment and follow me." 9 So he went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10 When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him Acts 12:5-10 (NKJV)

    19. Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing. 40 But Philip was found at Azotes. And passing through, he preached in all the cities till he came to Caesarea. Acts 8:39-40 (NKJV)

    20. 6. The Gift of healing.  how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him. Acts 10:38 (NKJV)

    21. And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." Mark 16:15-18 (NKJV)

    22. 7. Prophecy. One who speaks forth or on behalf of. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: "Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. Jeer 1:9 (NKJV)

    23. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. 4 He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. 5 I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification. 1 Cur 14:3-5 (NKJV)

    24. 8. The gift of tongues. This is the most common gift in a service like today. 1Cor 12:30 “do all speak in tongues” Public expressions of tongues should be interpreted.

    25. 9. Interpretation of Tongues. Explains what was spoken. If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret. 28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God. 1 Cur 14:27-28 (NKJV)

    26. Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe. 23 Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind? 24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all. 25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you. 1 Cur 14:22-25 (NKJV)

    27.  For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people, 12 To whom He said, "This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest," And, "This is the refreshing"; Yet they would not hear. 13 But the word of the Lord was to them, "Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little," That they might go and fall backward, and be broken And snared and caught. 14 Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scornful men, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem, Isaiah 28:11-14 (NKJV)

    28. Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not despise prophecies. 21 Test all things; hold fast what is good. 1 Theses 5:19-21 (NKJV)

    29. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 1 Cor 14:32-33 (NKJV)
