REFLECTION ON SPIRITUAL GIFTS

From the spiritual gift inventory, I discovered my spiritual gifts being faith,
patience, creativity and encouragement.

These spiritual gifts are to be understood as God’s gift of grace not evidence of
man’s achievement.

When the holy spirit moves through you, the gift comes though your nature
personality and get behind it, you nature individuality and yet with full
empowerment of the holy spirit who imparts the gift to us.

Don’t try to work the gift with your need, the gift does not proceed from
intellectual realm, spiritual gifts operate out faith, love and anointing. 1
Corinthians 14:1, Romans 12:16 and Acts 10:38.

gifted. This leads to greater effectiveness and impact on our service as we are
utilizing specially given to us by God. It also prevents burnouts as we are operating
with enjoyment within our God given capabilities.

Using our spiritual gifts in the ministry foster unity and collaboration within the
body of Christ. When individuals use their gift for the common good it brings
about synergetic effect where each person’s contribution enhances the work of
others.

This collaboration creates a harmonious and vibrant community where everyone


supports and encourages the other. It also helps exemplify the concept of the body
of Christ where each part has a vital role to play and cannot function fully without
others.

However, the use of spiritual gifts in ministry also requires humility and serves
heart, it is not about seeking recognition or personal gain but rather glorifying God
and serving his people. It is important to remain grounded in the love of Christ and
prioritize others above our needs.

In conclusion using one’s spiritual gifts in ministry to the body of Christ is a sacred
