Bible in a Year: Psalms 126-128; 1 Corinthians 10:19-33

There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them.
1 Corinthians 12:4

Today's Scripture & Insight: 1 Corinthians 12:1-14

I was invited to meet a world-renowned pianist. Since I grew up immersed in music—playing the violin and piano, and primarily singing solos for church and other events—I was thrilled at the opportunity.

When I arrived to meet the pianist, I realized he spoke little English; and to my surprise he provided a cello for me to play—an instrument I'd never touched. He insisted that I play and he would accompany me. I screeched out a few notes, trying to mimic my violin training. Finally admitting that I was lost, we parted ways.

I awoke, realizing the scenario had been a dream. But since the musical background presented in my dream was true, in my mind lingered the words, Why didn't you tell him you could sing?

God equips us to develop our natural talents and our spiritual gifts for others (1 Corinthians 12:7). Through prayerful reading of the Bible and the wise advice of others, we can better understand the spiritual gift (or gifts) that is uniquely ours. The apostle Paul reminds us that whatever our spiritual gift, we're to take time to find it and use it, knowing that the Spirit distributes the gifts "just as he determines" (v. 11).

Let's use the "voices" the Holy Spirit has given us to honor God and serve other believers in Jesus.

By: Evan Morgan

Reflect & Pray
What's your spiritual "voice," and how can you use it today? Why is it wrong to want others' spiritual gifts?

Father, show me how You've gifted me and how I'm to use those gifts for others.

DIVINE CHAMPION 2

Yesterday we discovered that our Lord Jesus Christ is the number one champion and that He makes His people champions. We also saw that a divine champion is a person raised up and supported by God.

One attribute of a champion is strength. The divine champion is one who receives divine strengthening....More
