God, I ask You in Jesus’ name to help me to recognize the spiritual gifts that You have given me and show me how I can use them for Your glory. Keep me from being jealous of the gifts others may have, but instead, let me be thankful for the way You’ve equipped the Body of Christ to serve together perfectly. Amen, so be it by faith, and by faith, it is so. Thank You Jesus. Amen!
Some people are called to use gifts of teaching and leadership to equip other believers. Others are called to “works of service.” Every spiritual gift is important and vital for the mission of the church. God gave us all different gifts so that we would depend upon one another.
Spiritual Gifts - Ephesians 4:11-16
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
