God does not want us to be ignorant concerning gifts. The gifts operate through all of us. If you are not in Him, you are divided. How can we be walking together or operating together if we are not being led by the same Spirit. There is no division in the Spirit. Are we baptized into one body by the same Spirit? Because of different doctrines and beliefs, this is what divides not only people but spirit.
God is more concerned about what we are lacking than on what we have going on so we all can grow into Him. The body of Christ is a whole, but if we were all doing what we are supposed to do, there would not be schism among us. If someone is weak in their faith, we should pay more attention to them that are lacking, invest more time, invest more spiritual gifts. We should give more honor to that part which is lacking.
Some are weak because they do not discern the Body of Christ. And some are very strong because they discern the Body. They discern: this is part of the body, this is not!
We all should operate in the 9 gifts of the Spirit even though God has set some in the Church with specific purpose. We all should be functioning in our gifts. Build yourself up in the Holy Ghost by praying the Spirit.
In the school of the Holy Spirit, there is no training. There is no activation. Just let Him use you. There is always an unction. People are luring others so they can make money. Just step out and use all the gifts inside of you. Fear comes from the devil. It comes from pride.
Some people have the gift of prophecy, but sometimes this gift flows from two different streams. It has to flow out of the throne of God only. In this case, discern it, judge the prophetic voice and word. No more training time. Just do it.
Speaking and praying in tongues have different purposes. When you speak in tongues with the prophetic unction, it must have an interpretation at some point and somehow. But praying in tongues, there is no ultimate need for interpretation because sometimes it is to pray because of the utterance of the Spirit and sometimes for the building up of your inner man. Forbid no one to speak in tongues! Some religious sects love to throw the baby away with the bath water.
When the Spirit is moving, we should all recognize Him. God may be doing thousands of things at the same time, but there is still order in the Body if we are moving by the Spirit. You will know when someone is moving by their flesh or by their spirit.
Some people have the grace to do something. Some don’t. For example, some real prophets and real apostles have a specific assignment, and they have a deep level of grace to do it. Sometimes you may see things, you may want to expose it, but make sure that there is grace available for you to do it and that it is your assignment.
God already activated your spirit! You are already activated! Just do it! Just do it! In Him we move and in Him we have our being.
