Be honest and objective - you are putting in work and effort in order to learn how to use your abilities. People will want you to ‘gift’ these abilities to them, don’t go there. This is one of the problems with calling them ‘gifts’ - like any other skill, learning to walk, do math, sing, each of us has to learn how to do it for ourselves.

Simplifying the process of using your soulical abilities... DIVERSE KINDS OF TONGUES  The gift of tongues is a supernatural utterance in an unknown tongue, as a sign to unbelievers, for speaking to God, and to express devotion. Paul boasted that he spoke in tongues more than others, and since he valued this so highly we likewise should esteem this gift highly. As it is developed, it is quite possible that you may find a different language being used in different circumstances; you may be able to sense what is being spoken by the language being used, even without interpretation. INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES  The supernatural giving forth of the meaning of utterances in other tongues following the message in tongues. For edification, instruction, understanding, or to encourage the participation of hearers. The combination of tongues and interpretation is generally the equivalent of prophecy.  

WORD OF WISDOM  A supernatural utterance of divine wisdom and instruction, for divine aid in persecution, to minister Truth, to escape a snare, to understand a situation from the Lord’s point of view so counsel is appropriate. Often the application of a word of knowledge. WORD OF KNOWLEDGE  A supernatural utterance of divine knowledge, to reveal a person’s need, expose error, or to reveal a person’s identity. Generally speaking a word of knowledge deals more with objective facts or data, while a word of wisdom deals with what to do with that information. It’s not essential to be able to identify which is at work in any given situation, and trying to do so may even become a distraction. GIFTS OF FAITH  The supernatural impartation of confidence for patience, protection against enemies, divine intervention, preservation from judgment, and deliverance. Remembering that our confidence is in the Lord’s faith, which is perfect, keeps us from focusing on either the quality or quantity of our own faith, and even

We are quickly approaching a time when most of the moving of the Spirit of God in and through His people will occur outside organized religion of any kind, simply because those in legal authority—according to a name on the door—have usurped the Spirit’s authority over what happens inside, and are therefore unwilling to let the Spirit have His way, because it could be “out of order.” This is not to say that there is no order in the church! There definitely is. And it’s very simple: Jesus is in charge! If Jesus Himself approached the church in physical form, how many churches would turn Him away from the pulpit either because He hadn’t cleared His message with them beforehand or because He wasn’t a member of that church organization? When someone is dying of cancer, or is wounded in heart or head, or in the depths of despair, they want to be set free by God. They don’t care whether the one setting them free is “under an approved, ordained authority,” neither does God, and neither should we. Likewise, just bec

Most structural religious organizations have been built to accommodate certain beliefs. If the Lord wanted us to use the scriptures as a pattern to set up a church structure, they would be so clear that there wouldn’t be 2,000 official denominations in the United States alone, each of them “scripturally based.” So the gifts are operated out of “functional authority.” We are quickly approaching a time when most of the moving of the Spirit of God in and through His people will occur outside organized religion of any kind, simply because those in legal authority—according to a name on the door—have usurped the Spirit’s authority over what happens inside, and are therefore unwilling to let the Spirit have His way, because it could be “out of order.” This is not to say that there is no order in the church!

The Best Gifts?  Let’s say you’re stranded in the middle of a desert, without food or water, for days, and are about ready to expire. Two fellows come along, one with a sack full of gold, another with a canteen of water. Which is the best gift? The water, of course! As far as the gifts of the Spirit are concerned, which is the best gift? That which meets the need at the time! So if knowledge is needed, the gift of healing is of no effect. If teaching is needed, the gift of hospitality is of no effect. This is why we need to depend on the Lord to meet our needs and those of others; He alone knows the need!  

The best gift is the one that is most needed, can we extend that valuation to the person being used in that gift? Does the person who has the most and/or best gift have the most authority? Again most structural religious organizations have been built to accommodate certain beliefs.

As you grow in dependence on the Lord, and learn how He moves through the operation of the gifts, you will become more and more comfortable to be available to be used by Him in whatever capacity He chooses. Say the Lord has been flowing through you in the gift of healing, but gives you the discernment that what is needed for the person is a word of wisdom, understanding, to enlighten his situation. Ask the Lord, "What do you have for this person?" The Lord may choose to give Himself through you, or through another person. The point is that, from your point of view, this may be an opportunity to begin letting the Lord minister through you in the gift of a word of wisdom. There is a danger in becoming "specialized" and in letting others decide how you should minister, to whom, and when. God doesn't appreciate it when others usurp His authority, and His "order" is not like ours.

What Do We Do with The Gifts?  Whatever God wants! Part of our training is learning to depend on God for instructions on what to do with them, and when. For instance, with our healing example, Jesus passed by many people whom He did not heal to get to the one the Father wanted to heal. We learn the discipline of dependence in using the gifts; they are not for us, they are not for others, they are an extension of God’s will and purpose, which is to give His love. HE ALONE chooses how this is done! Very often we interrupt God’s purposes in others’ lives because we step in with encouragement, financial help, even prayer—right when God is getting them to the place where He can break their independence! So the more we are tuned to His small voice, the more we see what the Father is doing, and join Him in His purposes; the more we will tune out the cries of the people, and our own needs as well.
