Catch the Wind – Week 6
Gifts To Go
Gifts That Carry the Wind
You weren’t just gifted for church — you were gifted for life.
The gifts of the Holy Spirit were always meant to follow believers — not stay in the building.
Signs and wonders follow those who believe — not just those who preach.
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe…”—Mark 16:17a (NLT)
Difference Between Natural Abilities & Spiritual Gifts
Ability is what you’re born with. Gifting is what you’re born again with.
God uses our natural strengths, but when the Spirit empowers them, they become tools for transformation — not just talent.
“A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.”—1 Corinthians 12:7 (NLT)
What You Carry Is More Than You Think
Your gift isn’t just a talent — it’s a tool in God’s hands.
Gifts Are Meant to Follow Believers
Boardrooms, classrooms, studios — these are pulpits too.
“You are the salt of the earth…”—Matthew 5:13 (NLT)
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name…”—Mark 16:17–18 (NLT)
Gifts Are Given, Not Earned
You’re not impressive — you’re entrusted.
“It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have.”—1 Corinthians 12:11 (NLT)
You Have At Least One Gift — Use It!
You don’t have to be on stage to be impactful — just available.
“God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.”—1 Peter 4:10 (NLT)
Gifts Are for Service, Not Status
God’s gifts weren’t meant to make you look good — they were meant to help people get free.
“Because of the privilege and authority God has given me, I give each of you this warning: Don’t think you are better than you really are. Be honest in your evaluation of yourselves…”—Romans 12:3 (NLT)
Faith Statement
I am gifted by God, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and sent into the world on purpose.
My abilities are not accidents — they are tools in the hands of a powerful God.
I will no longer hide my gift or limit it to church settings.
I am called, capable, and commissioned to carry the wind of the Spirit wherever I go.
Confession
Holy Spirit, I confess that I’ve often overlooked what You’ve placed inside me.
I’ve thought too small and kept Your gifts boxed in.
But today I choose to believe that I am gifted and called — not just for church, but for every space You send me.
Let my words carry wisdom. Let my instincts be Spirit-led. Let my presence bring peace.
I receive Your boldness to use what You’ve given me, right where I am.
