FOR THE PROFIT OF ALL

1 Corinthians 12:7-11

But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

Personal Challenge

The Christian life is a life lived in community. We cannot work out our salvation alone. We need others to love as our neighbor. We need others to show us where we have gone astray. We are all blessed with different spiritual gifts and the expectation is that we will use those gifts to build up the community that God has put us in. Glory be to God!
