Gifts of the Father, Son & Spirit Explained || Bishop OA Bernard

Ministry is not built on personal ambition - it is built on the gifts that God gives. In Scripture, we see that the Godhead equips the Church through different kinds of gifts. The Father gives natural gifts and talents that shape purpose (2 Peter 1:3). The Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts for the manifestation of His power (1 Corinthians 12:7–10, 28). The Son gives ministry offices to equip and build the Church (Ephesians 4:11–12). Each of these gifts serves a purpose: • Equipping the saints • Edifying the Church • Bringing believers to maturity in Christ This message also explores the five-fold ministry, the ministry of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:18–20), and the ministry of transformation and reformation (Ephesians 4:13–17; Romans 12:1–2). Understanding these gifts helps believers recognize how God prepares His people to serve and how the Church grows into spiritual maturity.
