Hope Unlimited Church

Romans 12:4 NLT

Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function,

Romans 12:5 NLT

so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.

Romans 12:6 NLT

In his GRACE, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you.

Romans 11:29 ESV

“For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable”

1 Cor 14:1-4 ESV

Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy. For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit. On the other hand, the one who prophesies speaks to people for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation. The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.

Romans 12:7 NLT

If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well.

Romans 12:8 NLT

If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.

If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging.

If it is giving, give generously.

If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously.

And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.

Romans 12:9-10 NLT

Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.

Romans 12:11 NLT

Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.
