SPIRITUAL GIFTS, CALLING AND ANOINTING
THE GIFTS OF THE FATHER, GIFTS OF CHRIST (FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY) AND GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
God has created us for a purpose/destiny. He places inside us, at conception, at least two of the redemptive gifts which will be that aspect of the Bride of Messiah that you are called and anointed to manifest in reflecting God’s Love to your neighbor..
Each calling comes with special gifts and anointing to finish the work Anointing does not mean Gifts. It is the manifest power of God’s presence which destroys yokes and brings forth fruit.
Five-Fold Ministry (Office)_ The Gifts Of Christ
It is about Walking In Rulership. Certain believers are called to walk in positions of governance.
Eph. 4:11-13 “11 And His gifts were [varied; He Himself appointed and gave men to us] some to be apostle (special messengers), some prophets (inspired preachers and expounders), some evangelists (preachers of the Gospel, traveling missionaries), some pastors (shepherds of His flock) and teachers 12 His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ’s body (the church), 13 [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and in the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ’s own perfection), the measure of the stature of the fullness of the Christ and the completeness found in Him. ”This represents standing in a full time ministry, recognized by the outpouring of God’s gift to give direction to the Body of Messiah. It is clear the person is the one “gifted” for the purpose of equipping the other saints.
The Gifts of the Holy Spirit
It is the flow of The Holy Spirit’s leading which I allow to benefit mankind.
1 Cor. 12:4-12 “4 Now there are distinctive varieties and distributions of endowments (gifts, extraordinary powers distinguishing certain Christians, due to the power of divine grace operating in their souls by the Holy Spirit) and they vary, but the [Holy] Spirit remains the same.
5 And there are distinctive varieties of service and ministration, but it is the same Lord [Who is served].
6 And there are distinctive varieties of operation [of working to accomplish things], but it is the same God Who inspires and energizes them all in all. 7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the [Holy] Spirit [the evidence, the spiritual illumination of the Spirit] for good and profit.
♦ 8 To one is given in and through the [Holy] Spirit [the power to speak] a message of wisdom,
♦ and to another [the power to express] a word of knowledge and understanding according to the same [Holy]Spirit;
♦ 9 To another [wonder-working] faith by the same [Holy] Spirit,
♦ to another the extraordinary powers of healing by the one Spirit;
♦ 10 To another the working of miracles,
♦ to another prophetic insight (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose);
♦ to another the ability to discern and distinguish between [the utterances of true] spirits [and false ones], to another various kinds of [unknown] tongues,
♦ to another the ability to interpret [such] tongues. 11 All these [gifts, achievements, abilities] are inspired and brought to pass by one and the same [Holy] Spirit, Who apportions to each person individually [exactly]as He chooses. 12 For just as the body is a unity and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form [only] one body, so it is with Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).” (See also 1 Cor. 14).
This represents the supernatural interaction between:
*God and man,
*Man and the Body of Messiah at a specific time and specific set of circumstances as the Holy Spirit works through a believer. In many cases the manifestation of this gift will have a direct/beneficial outworking on the individual himself.
Redemptive Gifts _The Gifts of the Father
It is given in order that I can go about fulfilling my purpose so that the Bride of Messiah is drawn closer in intimacy with God.
Rom. 12:6-8 “6 Having gifts (talents, qualities) that differ according to the grace given us, let us use them: [He whose gift is] prophecy (PROPHET), [let him prophesy] according to the proportion of his faith;
7 [He whose gift is] practical service (SERVANT), let him give himself to serving; he who teaches (TEACHER), to his teaching;
8 He who exhorts (encourages) (EXHORTER), to his exhortation; he who contributes (GIVER), let him do it in simplicity and liberality; he who gives aid and superintends (RULER), with zeal and singleness of mind; he who does acts of mercy (MERCY), with genuine cheerfulness and joyful eagerness.”
The gift/gifts that make up my DNA, define what God has destined me to be – that “part” reflection of God’s full Glory. As each one of the gifts unite in the Body of Messiah, we cause the “Radiance” that will reflect the One True God, i.e. each one specific gift or color is needed to create the whole“rainbow”.
