I Am What I Am
I Am Gifted
1 Corinthians 12:1-11        
 
 
When I choose to believe in and belong to Christ, God gives me 3 gifts.

           

·   First, God gives me eternal life

      Romans 6:23 

 

·   Second, God gives me the Holy Spirit

      Romans 5:5

 

·   Third, God gives me a Spirit Gift

        Romans 12:6 

 

 

My Spirit Gift is very important. 

 

·   First, my Spirit Gift points to God's plan      

        1 Corinthians 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 all of them in all men. 

 

 

·   Second, my gift points out my worth

      1 Corinthians 12:27

 

·   Third, my gift points to my abundance

        John 10:10;  John 15:8-11 

           


What does God want me to do with my gift?
