Steps for Discovering Your Spiritual Gifts

If you have taken this step, write Yes before the step.
If you have not taken a particular step but are willing to try that step, write a + before the statement.
If you have not taken a step and are unwilling at this time to try it, write a - by that step. (These steps are not in a particular progression or order.)

1. Explore the possibilities.

  • Study the Bible.
  • Learn my church's position on gifts.
  • Read extensively about spiritual gifts.
  • Get to know gifted people.
  • Make gift a conversation piece.

2. Experiment with as many gifts as you can.

  • Look for needs that God can meet through you.
  • Use a gifts inventory.

3. Examine your feelings. Is the gift you are using giving you excitement or a feeling that this is what you want to do more than anything else?

4. Evaluate your effectiveness.

5. Expect confirmation from other Christians.

Daily Bible Text

“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”

Proverbs 16:18.

Daily Thought

“There are those who profess to serve God, while they rely upon their own efforts to obey His law, to form a right character, and secure salvation. Their hearts are not moved by any deep sense of the love of Christ, but they seek to perform the duties of the Christian life as that which God requires of them in order to gain heaven. Such religion is worth nothing.”

Steps to Christ, p. 44.
