Review : Why have we been uninformed? Varieties of gifts, service, activities but same Spirit, Lord, and God who EMPOWERS them all in EVERYONE. Manifestation gifts are for common good.  Manifestation gifts come out in specific moments as determined by the Spirit. Introduction ·          Dictionary definition-“Manifest”-demonstrate plainly, reveal, evidence of or proof ·          Manifestation gifts seem to complement other gifts a person may have.   For example, manifestation gifts often work alongside our grace gifts.   So, words of knowledge often work with gift of prophecy, wisdom often with gift of teaching, healing with gift of mercy. ·          Personally, these manifestation gifts often lead me to pray specifically for people and situations.   I then must pray and ask God if I am to share with the person.   Sometimes it is only f...

Here are some of my favorite tweets from the last few weeks.  This is one of the blessings of social media where we can hear the gospel from people all over the world. If you like the tweet, go and follow the person on Twitter. The Law's favorite word is ''more.'' •more obedience •more striving •more doing •more, more, more. The Gospel’s favorite word is ‘’finished.’’ @birdchadlouis   “God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart.” - C.H. Spurgeon That little voice in your head telling you the situation is hopeless or that you're worthless is a fear-mongering liar. Listen to the voice of your Good Shepherd. He speaks grace and truth! @pastorlabby Child of God: You're going to hear a lot of voices today. Listen for the voice of the Good Shepherd above them all. He's for you, not against you! @pastorlabby The whole point of abiding in Christ according to the rhythms of...

The Christian life is supposed to work like this: something wells up inside us and then overflows. @JeremyG220 I don’t know why God answers some prayers immediately and not others.

Perhaps in God’s economy it's most important we have the freedom + faith to ask, + we can rest in His provision. @rebekahlyons The quickest way to shut down your church’s missional response to the gospel is to leverage guilt in motivating them to reach their lost friends... Remember that the gospel will empower on its own. @jaredcwilson One way to kill your prayer life is to overthink it. @jaredcwilson

If the story of the Bible is about how God saves sinners by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, then our sermons should conclude with trusting in Christ alone as our final and ultimate application. Without Christ, all the commands and promises mean nothing. Christ Alone! @jonmoffitt Jesus showed what generosity looks like when He gave His life to save us. Because of Him, we can be generous too. #thegospelprojectkids In Christ, there are no "have to's" on your to do list for today. Compelled by His love they are all "get to's." @AaronBublitz
