 The Holy Spirit has given each believer a spiritual gift. In 1 Corinthians chapter 12 verse 7, the Bible says, a spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other. Each one of us has been given a spiritual gift. That's the biblical truth. So no matter what the enemy tells you, no matter what people tell you, no matter what your insecurity may tell you, just know that God has given you a spiritual gift. Now, I know sometimes you might doubt that and one of the reasons a believer will doubt that they have a spiritual gift is because they haven't yet discovered which gift the Holy Spirit has deposited in them. So let's settle the matter now. The Bible makes it clear that God has given you a spiritual gift, period. No matter what you feel, no matter what you see or don't see, you have a spiritual gift. Now, planted in that truth, you can begin to grow in your understanding of what God has placed in you. So how do you know which spiritual gift God has given to you? First of all, number one, desire. 1 Corinthians chapter 14 verse 1 says, let love be your highest goal, but you should also desire the special abilities the Spirit gives. There is nothing wrong with desiring a spiritual gift. Paul the Apostle encouraged believers to desire the spiritual gifts. Your desire for a particular gift could be a sign that God has given you that gift. If you desire a spiritual gift, who was it do you think that put that desire there? The enemy? Why would he give you a desire to become helpful to the church? Was it your flesh? Since when does your flesh want to do anything for God? Sure, the flesh might give you impure motives for operating in the gifts, but the desire itself, that pure longing to help a believer in a certain area, could it possibly be from your flesh? Number two, recognition. Proverbs chapter 18 verse 16 says, A man's gift maketh room for him and bringeth him before great men. If you truly have a spiritual gift, you don't have to go around announcing it. It just shows. It makes room for you. It creates ministry opportunities naturally. A sign that you have a spiritual gift is that others notice the gift on your life. Now, this of course does not mean that others need to acknowledge a gift on you in order for you to have it. That what believers see on you can help you discover your spiritual gift. Now, try this in a group of believers. Take turns encouraging each other. Go around the group encouraging each believer by speaking out loud what gifts you potentially see in each other. Now, this of course isn't the only means of discovering your gift, but you might be surprised at how harmoniously everyone discerns gifts in each other. Finally, number three, function. 1 Corinthians chapter 12 verse 4 says there are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same spirit is the source of them all. This might be the most obvious, but it's also the clearest sign that you have a gift. You know you have a gift if you sense or see that gift in operation. Again, this might seem very obvious, but you'd be amazed at how many people take for granted the gifts operating in their lives. Where they might just think they're really good at reading people, there could be a gift of prophecy. Where they might imagine that they just have favor, there could be a gift of miracles. Where they see only a positive attitude, there could be a gift of faith. Pay close attention to how God might be working in your life already, and you may see a spiritual gift, a gift that's been hidden all along.
