DAY 18 | PRAY FOR A GREATER MANIFESTATION OF THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT

Pastor Edward Taylor | Senior Pastor | Word of Faith Christian Center, Yazoo City, MS

Welcome to day 18 of our 30 days of prayer campaign. My name is Pastor Edward Taylor and I am the Senior Pastor at Word of Faith Christian Center in Yazoo City, Mississippi. My assignment today is to pray for a greater manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit. One thing we found out about God is that God wants His church to be successful, period. Failure is not an option. And because of that, God has given us gifts, spiritual gifts, that would enable us to be successful. The Scripture that I'm going to read today is found in 1 Corinthians chapter 12, verses 4 through 11. And today I'm going to read out of the easy to read version. It says, “There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but they are all from the same Spirit. There are different ways to serve, but we serve the same Lord. And there are different ways that God works in people, but it is the same God who works in all of us to do everything. Something from the Spirit can be seen in each person. The Spirit gives this to each one to help others. The Spirit gives one person the ability to speak with wisdom, and the same Spirit gives another person the ability to speak with knowledge. The same Spirit gives faith to one person, and to another He gives gifts of healing. The Spirit gives to one person the power to do miracles, to another the ability to prophesy, and to another the ability to judge what is from the Spirit and what is not. The Spirit gives one person the ability to speak in different languages, and to another the ability to interpret those languages. One Spirit, the same Spirit does all these. The Spirit decides what to give each one.” So today let's pray for a greater display of the gifts of the Spirit. If you're ready, let's pray.
