Different Kinds of Tongues
The gift of tongues is simply the Holy Spirit giving you the supernatural ability to speak in a foreign tongue that you have no knowledge or ability to speak out on your own. There are two types of tongues He can give you. One is a tongue of this earth. For instance, if your native […]
The Working of Miracles
This next gift from the Holy Spirit is where you can get into some real heavy, jaw-dropping, knock-your-socks off type of supernatural activity from Him. Some of the different Bible Dictionaries describe the word miracle as the following: An intervention in the natural universe by God A phenomena that transcends natural laws A divine act […]
The Gifts of Healings
Per the article we just did titled, “The Great Commission – Save, Heal, Deliver and Disciple,” one of the things that Jesus is wanting all of us to do for Him to is pray for the sick. And if we do, then many of the times they will “recover,” which means that He is going […]
The Gift of Faith
This next gift, the gift of faith, is something that comes directly from the Holy Spirit. The Bible tells us that we all have a certain measure of faith that has already been given to us by the Lord. God has to give each person a certain measure of faith or we would not be […]
The Gift of Prophecy
This next gift may just be the greatest of the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit. The reason I say this is because the apostle Paul, in the second verse above, purposely singles out this gift when telling you to seek after the spiritual gifts. He says in this verse to “desire spiritual gifts, but […]
The Word of Wisdom
This next gift at times will work in conjunction with the word of knowledge. Sometimes all you need is a direct word of knowledge from the Holy Spirit and it will completely solve the problem or dilemma you are dealing with. However, there will be other times that a word of knowledge will not be […]
The Word of Knowledge
This first gift I will talk about is the one I believe will manifest the most in your daily life with the Lord. With God having absolute perfect knowledge on all things, and with us having knowledge levels that are completely imperfect and limited, this means that we all need to receive words of knowledge […]
Self Control – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
Last, but not certainly least, is the quality of self-control. This one is huge, and I mean huge! Once you start to enter into a true sanctification process with the Lord – expect the Holy Spirit to move on you very early with this specific quality. The reason for this is that we all have a […]
Gentleness- Fruit of the Spirit
Many men may draw back a bit from this next fruit, which is the quality of gentleness. However, Jesus was fully incarnated into a human flesh body – but this incarnation was done as a man – fully Man and fully God. Since Jesus walked our earth as a man – the Son of Man […]
Faithfulness – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
In the times we live in with half of all marriages still ending up in divorce, and with many people getting back-stabbed in the workplaces with people they thought they could initially trust – this particular quality is one that is really needed in our day and age. This quality is not only needed in […]
Goodness – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
The Bible says that it is the goodness of God that will lead sinners to repentance and salvation. The quality of goodness is another real powerful quality to have operating through you. This particular quality has a real drawing power to it. Not only does the goodness of God draw people direct to Him, but this […]
Kindness- Fruit of the Spirit
As a result of more people being impatient, having short fuses, and with everyone always being in a hurry – many people have lost the ability to treat others with kindness and respect. A kind word, a kind action to another person can really do wonders for them. When you really study the life of […]
Longsuffering – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
One of the main definitions of the word longsuffering is that it is referring to patience. And patience is another sorely needed quality in the fast paced world in which we live in today. Just watch people standing in line at the grocery store or at your local fast food restaurant and watch how short […]
Peace From The Fruit Of The Spirit Bible Verse
This is another major quality that we all need operating in our lives, especially with all of the uncertainty of this life and never knowing what is going to happen next. Jobs are no longer as secure as they used to be. You never know when the company you work for may be bought out […]
Joy – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” (Galatians 5:22) In the rough and tough world we live in with all of the crime, disorder, and bad things that can happen to anyone of us at anytime, many Christians have lost a lot of their joy in […]
Love – Fruit of the Spirit Bible Verse
If I had to rank all of the above fruit of the Spirit in their order of possible importance, the quality of love would have to be #1. And this is why it may have been listed as the first fruit in the above Scripture verse. Due to the extreme importance of just this one […]

Is Being Slain In The Spirit Coming From God?
