Spiritual Gifts

Q: What exactly are spiritual gifts? How do you know if you have them?

A: Spiritual gifts are simply part of the nature you were born with. They show up in your preferences or in how you think and look at things. But they are supernaturally given to us to empower us to perform certain roles in life. Each of us was born with a purpose, and our spiritual gifts align with that purpose. So literally everyone has spiritual gifts of some sort. Most people have several of them. And it is that collection or arrangement of the spiritual gifts that make up some of the unique and wonderful qualities that are best displayed when we are living our purpose.

You can read more about the spiritual gifts in the following Scripture references: Romans 12:3-8, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 & 14:1-40, Ephesians 4:7-16, and 1 Peter 4:7-11.
