As He Wills.

Gifts, Anointing & What the Body Needs

The Spirit distributes gifts for the profit of all — as He wills. Reflect, open the Scriptures, discuss, and take (or retake) the assessment.

Before we start

Reflection questions

What do you usually think about first when you hear spiritual gifts?

Sit with your first reaction — talents, roles, flashy moments, or something quieter. No wrong answer; notice what rises.

Have you ever seen God use someone in a way that surprised you?

Think of a person who stepped into a need outside their “usual” lane — and how the Spirit showed up.

What is something you keep noticing that seems to be missing or needed around you?

A gap you keep seeing can become prayer, service, or recognition of someone else’s gift — not only criticism.

1 Corinthians 12:4-11

Key frame

Diversities of gifts, ministries, and activities — but the same Spirit. Manifestations are given for the profit of all; the Spirit distributes to each one individually as He wills.

Numbers 11:16-17, 24-30

Shared burden

The load was bigger than Moses alone. God put of the Spirit upon the elders — distribution, not one person carrying everything.

God’s Spirit gave wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and craftsmanship — skill and excellence under anointing.

Acts 8:26-40

Philip

Unusual Spirit-directed obedience for a moment — not a permanent personal “transportation gift.” Follow the Spirit; don’t box one event into your identity.
