How do you know what spiritual gift you have?

Question:
How do you know what spiritual gift you have?

Answer:

All spiritual gifts are given to serve the Lord, edify the church, or lead people to Christ for salvation.  Some gifts that are mentioned are found in Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, and Ephesians 4.  It may not be necessary to know what your gift(s) are.  Sometimes, if we think we have a particular gift, we may limit our labors for the Lord based on that gift.  We should “stir up” (2 Timothy 1:6) our gift by using it, but be ready to be used of the Lord in whatever way He wants to use us.

“Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church” (1 Corinthians 14:12).
