Awakened to Deliver – The Gifts of the Spirit

Week 26, Day 1: What Is the Gift of Faith?

Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 12:9 (NASB 2020)

“…to another faith by the same Spirit…”

⸻

Episode Highlights

• The gift of faith is not saving faith or general trust—it’s supernatural confidence given by the Holy Spirit for impossible situations.

• This faith goes beyond what you can believe naturally. It’s the boldness to believe as God believes.

• When the gift of faith is active, fear dies, doubt flees, and the impossible becomes expected.

• It’s not about your feelings—it’s about the Spirit releasing divine assurance for the moment.

• Biblical examples include Daniel in the lions’ den, Elijah calling down fire, and Jesus cursing the fig tree.

⸻

Scriptures to Reflect On

• 1 Corinthians 12:9 – The gift of faith by the Spirit.

• Hebrews 11 – The “faith hall of fame.”

• Daniel 6 – Daniel’s unwavering trust in God.

• 1 Kings 18:36–39 – Elijah’s bold prayer and fire from heaven.

• Mark 11:22–24 – Jesus teaches mountain-moving faith.

⸻

Takeaway Thought

When the gift of faith rises, you don’t just hope—you know. God is going to move. And you stand in that confidence no matter what you see.

Day 4: How the Word of Knowledge Operates in Deliverance

Key Verse: Mark 2:8 (NASB 2020)

“Immediately Jesus, aware in His spirit that they were thinking that way within themselves, said to them, ‘Why are you thinking about these things in your hearts?’”

⸻

Episode Highlights

• The Word of Knowledge exposes the hidden works of darkness so freedom can come to light.

• Jesus operated in this gift constantly—knowing what people were thinking, what they were hiding, and what they needed.

• In deliverance, it often reveals root causes—such as trauma, unrepented sin, or demonic strongholds.

• This gift is not for accusation—it’s for restoration.

• Words of Knowledge often come mid-ministry as sudden impressions, mental pictures, or specific phrases.

• When delivered with authority and love, it can break chains instantly.

• This gift should always bring people closer to Jesus, not to the minister.

⸻

Scriptures to Reflect On

• Mark 2:8 – Jesus discerned their unspoken thoughts.

• John 4:16–18 – Jesus revealed the Samaritan woman’s past.

• Acts 5:1–10 – Peter knew the truth about Ananias and Sapphira’s deception.

⸻

Takeaway Thought

Deliverance without discernment can cause more harm than good.

But when the Holy Spirit reveals the root, you can cast it out with precision and peace.

⸻

Awakened to Deliver –The Gifts of the Spirit Day 4: Words of Wisdom - Counterfeits, Cautions, and Common Misunderstandings

Key Verse: James 3:15 (NASB 2020)

“This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic.”

⸻

Episode Highlights

• Counterfeit wisdom may sound spiritual but leads to confusion, pride, or deception.

• Misusing the gift can turn godly counsel into manipulation when it lacks humility and love.

• Common misunderstandings—like believing you’re unqualified or that mistakes disqualify you—often keep believers from stepping out.

• True wisdom is humble, Christ-centered, submitted to Scripture, and marked by peace and fruitfulness.

• We must walk in reverence, test every word, and stay teachable.

⸻

Scriptures to Reflect On

• James 3:15 – False wisdom is earthly and demonic.

• 1 John 4:1 – Test the spirits.

• Romans 12:3 – Don’t think more highly of yourself than you should.

• 1 Corinthians 12:7 – The gifts are for everyone filled with the Spirit.
