Spiritual gifts, they are so misunderstood. Are you one of those who believes that you have no spiritual gifts? Do you watch as others exercise the gifts they have been given, and become despondent because you think that you have been passed over? Well, I pose this question to you... what have you prayed for? Have you asked God to show you His will for you, and then after receiving that answer, asked for the ability to accomplish it? As part of giving you the ability to do His will you will receive spiritual gifts from the Holy Spirit to help you along the way.

As Christians we are given many gifts, and spiritual powers, but we should be careful not to take pride in them, nor forget that our gifts are intended to be used to glorify God, and not ourselves. Jesus warned His disciples of this, and we should heed his words as well... even though spirits are subject to us, our greatest joy should be in the fact that our names are written in heaven. If we are not saved, then we have nothing, and though we command an army of spirits we are still lost.
