“And now… I want to write about the special abilities the Holy Spirit gives to each of you, for I do not want any misunderstanding about them.” I Corinthians 12:1 TLB
Our being used in the gifts of the Holy Spirit is the result of our ability to yield to the presence and power of God. The quality of that which flows out through the operation of the gift directly relates to the accumulated spiritual “substance” that abides within the one being used. This spiritual “substance” develops through the integrity of our relationship to the Lord, and to the quality of our devotional life.
“Now there are distinctive varieties and distributions of endowments, and they vary, but the Holy Spirit remains the same.” I Corinthians 12:4. AMP
