SEEK DAILY (NBC) DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR March 28, 2022 (GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT)
TOPIC: GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT
Bible Text: 1 Corinthians 12:4-11
Memory Verse: “All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.” 1 Corinthians 12:11, NIV
MESSAGE
There is a big Mango tree that has so much fruits on it. People were plucking the fresh fruits; animals were feeding off the leftovers on the ground. The tree cast a wide range of shadow for humans and animals to relax. Lizards run on its branches and birds patched on it and as well lay their nest. The tree serves various purposes.
So also is the Holy Spirit who gives diverse gifts to Christians. He gives some ministries and others gifts such as word of wisdom, faith, healing virtues, working of miracles, prophecy, and different kind of tongues, among others. The same Spirit distributes various gifts as He wills and gives each one so that everyone that has accepted Christ as Lord and personal Saviour may benefit from all.
If you are a child of God, then you are entitled to one or more of the gifts. If you are yet to discover your own spiritual gift, pray and ask the Holy Spirit for your portion. If you are not God’s child, you can become one today by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, then you will receive the Holy Spirit and His gifts.
Insight: God’s gifts are more than enough for His children. No Christian should be without a gift of the Holy Spirit.
Prayer: Holy Spirit, I love you. I accept you into my heart, please release your gifts into my life.
RBT Passage: 1 Samuel 19-21
