Proper use of these gifts requires study, practice, and prayerful application.
Every single one of these gifts reflects the power of Almighty God offered to you to bring about His vision for your life, your family, your church, and your community. When we properly use these gifts of the Holy Ghost to strengthen and support God’s work, everyone benefits. When we practice their opposites we produce the opposite results for ourselves and others.
God didn’t just give the spiritual gifts as a filler to make the Bible thicker. God actually expects us to implement these spiritual gifts in our personal and church life, and to use them to overcome each of their opposites. What are you doing with the items on your spiritual to-do list?
