06 Norvel Hayes - Gifts of the Spirit 1 Gift of Faith

The Holy Spirit works with knowledge. We have to show God that we believe what the bible says. God tells us to remind Him what the scriptures promise. As we study the word, faith comes and grows the more we hear it, understanding comes. Then as we say and do what the bible tells us we can do, faith grows as we see the results and faithfulness of God to fulfill His word to us who believe and act on it. There are nine gifts of the Holy Spirit and we need all of them working in order in our churches but sadly because of lack of knowledge and teaching, we see few being utilized. Ephesians 1:17-21 ESV /
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.
