The Bible tells us that the Spirit apportions to each believer gifts according to God’s will, but can we influence which gifts and how much of each gift we receive? Sam Storms joins Gary Wilkerson today to discuss how we can develop, mature and increase the spiritual gifts that we have been given. They conclude their discussion defining and giving examples of the gift of prophecy.
Key Points from the Podcast
- Not all who receive a particular spiritual gift receive it in the same measure.
- Spiritual gifts can be developed and matured through prayer, study, practice and discipleship.
- Is prophecy an utterance about future events, simply preaching the word, or something different altogether?
