Spiritual Gifts Part 289: Developing capacity to function effectively in your spiritual gift

The Lord brought on His full tool set in transforming the worst sinner who ever lived into the trophy of grace, Paul , apostle to the Gentiles.

The same power that raised Christ from the dead is now available to work in you to produce a gracious forbearing attitude toward others.

The same power that raised Christ from the dead is now available to produce a supernatural ability in you to bear up with hope under difficult circumstances.

He takes that same resurrection life force and puts it to work in bringing many sons and daughters to glory.

He does this by bringing spiritual fruit to maturity and ripeness. Fruit like patience.

The Holy Spirit is reproducing in the Church on earth the life and mind of the Lord Jesus Christ in heaven, God’s perfect Man.

This is spirituality; that we are marked by the risen life of the Lord, ROM 8:11.
