The Holy Spirit equips every believer with divine gifts that reveal God's presence and power in the world. These gifts are available to everyone who wishes to serve in love. In episode eight of "The Holy Spirit," Duane Sheriff teaches on the nine gifts of the Spirit, emphasizing the power gifts and vocal gifts mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12. Understand the distinction between personal prayer language for private communion with God and the public gift of tongues for the edification of the Church.
The gifts are expressions of grace intended to strengthen the body of Christ and reveal His glory through us. When love guides the use of spiritual gifts, the supernatural becomes natural, and the Church stands as a living testimony of God's power on earth.
