★ MY SERMON NOTES
@ Evangelical Church of West Africa (ECWA),
(now Evangelical Church Winning All)
Airport, Abuja - Nigeria
1st June, 1998
☆ BIBLE STUDIES
* Topic: What is My Spiritual Gift?
* Leader: Mr. Achimugu Jonathan
* All the Spiritual gifts listed in the above passage are by the Holy Spirit
* Unless God gives you a gift, man cannot forge it out of his own strength - and once given, it must not be left to waste away. Use it profitably
* If one does not know his gift, he should pray and ask God that the Holy Spirit should show him and read the Scriptures
* Gifts are given to all Christians so that they can help strengthen others in their faith
* How to discover your gifts
(a) Pray for the Holy Spirit's revelation
(b) Try helping others grow to love God
- teaching Sunday School
- leading Bible Studies
- helping those in need
(c) Ask other members of your Church what they think your Spiritual gift is - they should be able to tell you
* Once you have discovered your Spiritual gift, you must use it without wavering. If you do not use your gift, you are like the unfaithful servant who did not use the talent his master gave him
* Do not feel inferior because you do not have a particular gift
* If you use the gift God has given you, He will be pleased
* The spiritual gifts are equally given by the same Spirit to glorify God
* Do not feel superior because you have a gift that others do not have
* If you do not speak in tongues, do not doubt your salvation. Salvation is by faith and not works
☆ Memory Verse:
★ 1st Peter 4:10 →"As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God."
