\\ *UNWRAPPING MY SPIRITUAL GIFTS*
*You Are Shaped for Significance - Part 2 of 6*
*Romans 12:5, 6 and Selected*
The moment you give your life to Jesus Christ, God gives you three things.
1.
Eternal life.
When I open my life to Jesus Christ, instantly I'm given eternal life.
/"The wages of sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."/
I never have to worry about my future, I know I'm going to heaven.
2.
His Spirit.
The moment I give my life to Jesus Christ, God gives me His Spirit to live inside me.
The Bible says God has given us His Spirit to fill our hearts with His love.
And He'll never leave you.
God is with you from every point on after you give your life to Christ.
The Holy Spirit is in your life.
Most of you know about those two gifts - the gift of eternal life and the gift of God's Spirit in you.
There's a third gift God gives you the moment you give your life to Christ.
3.
A special ability to use for His purpose.
Romans 12:6 /"God has given each of us the ability to do certain things well."/
New English /"The gifts we possess differ as they are allotted to us by God's grace, and must be exercised accordingly."/
When you are saved, when you become a follower of Jesus Christ, God gives you a brand new purpose for living.
And He never asks you to do something that He doesn't give you the ability to do.
So when He gives you a new life purpose, He also, gives you a special gift or gifts to fulfill that purpose.
The Bible has a lot to say about spiritual gifts.
There are at least twenty of them listed in Scripture.
We couldn't even define them all in the time allotted.
The Bible says that every Christian gets at least one gift.
It's different from a natural ability.
Everybody has natural abilities.
But only believers have spiritual gifts.
When you were born physically, you were given some physical gifts by God.
Hear, taste, touch, sight, smell... God gives you physical gifts when you are physically born.
When you're born again - God gives you some spiritual abilities to serve Him.
Every believer has at least one.
They are given to you at the moment of salvation.
God gives them sovereignly.
That means He chooses which ones you're going to get - you don't choose.
They're given by grace - you don't earn the gift.
It's just God's free gift to you.
There's several lists of them in the Bible.
I don't think they're exhaustive.
I think the list is much larger than the number that's actually mentioned.
I think they're just examples in Scripture.
Any time you're serving God and you're doing it well and you're enjoying it, you're demonstrating giftedness.
Why is it important to know my spiritual gift?
Three reasons:
*1.
MY GIFTS SHOW GOD'S PLAN FOR MY LIFE.*
I Cor.
12;4-6 /"There are different kinds of gifts but the same spirit.
There are different kinds of service but the same Lord.
There are different kinds of working but the same God works in all of them."/
Your spiritual gifts determine how God wants you to serve Him.
Once you understand what your spiritual gift is, it answers a lot of questions, like "What's God's will for my life?", "What should be my ministry?",
"Where should I focus my life?"
All of these factors are answered when you understand your gift.
Every Christian is called to serve the cause of Christ, but your spiritual gift shows how you individually are to serve Him.
If you're gifted in organizing then God wants you to be an organizer.
If your gifted in teaching then you need to be a teacher.
