Bible Reading: Romans 12:6-21
Key Verse: Verse 6 – “Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;”
Key Words: Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us
Now that we have looked at the seven grace gifts, let’s do a review by looking at how each gift would handle someone who is hurting and are in need.
The prophet says, “They need to know the truth about why they are going through this situation so I will tell them.”
The gift of ministry says, “I will bake them a cake.”
The gift of teaching says, “I will help them learn from this situation.”
The gift of exhortation says, “I will prod them to keep them serving through this situation.”
The gift of giving says, “How much do you need?”
The gift of rulership says, “They need to be led through this trial.”
The gift of mercy says, “I will show them some compassion.”
So the next time you see someone going through a difficult time, understand that everyone may be trying to help, but all in a different way. Those are the “grace gifts”!
