SPIRITUAL GIFT
There are two types of gift
1.
Natural gift: that is, you are gifted physical
to create or produce something – gifted to play football etc
2.
Spiritual gift: there are two types of spiritual
gift
In 1 cor 12:7 – 11 the bible mention the nine different gift
of the spirit. These gift are given to
us by the holy lord himself, and they are:
1.
Word of wisdom: this word of wisdom is mention
only once in the bible in 1 cor 12:18. It is the right application of knowledge.
the gift of wisdom was given to believers so that:
a)
They may know what to do or say in a specific
situation. Jesus manifests these words of wisdom to the Pharisees, who wanted
to trap him. Peter also manifests it and when they saw the way he talked, they
knew he had been with Jesus. Act 4:13, he said when they saw the boldness of
peter and john and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they
marveled and they took knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus. so word
of wisdom help us to know what to say in a specific situation.
