1 Corinthians 12:4-11

EMPOWERED BY THE SAME SPIRIT
All these are the works of one and same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.  1 Corinthians 12:11, NIV

The Scriptures affirms that the Spirit of God is one. The fact that the church shares spiritual things in common is supposed to guarantee our collective unity in spite of the obvious differences.

There are many people in the church demonstrating different gifts according to the will of the Spirit. Interestingly, no matter how public or private any of the gifts may be, each of them is powered by the same Spirit.

The church as a centre approved by God should be a place where His power is experienced by all who approach Him. All spiritual gifts are powered by the Holy Spirit to extend the testimony of the church about God and the promised kingdom.

For an effective ministry, you must daily rely on the Spirit to instruct and guide you so that the results would bring glory to God's name. Pray for the renewal of your gift(s) and Spirit today.
