The concluding sermon on the Spiritual Gifts series. Peter shortens the list of spiritual gifts to two items; Speaking and Doing.

1. And Finally
1 Peter 4:7–11

2. 1 Peter 4:7–11
7 The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound
judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer. 8
Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another,
because love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Be hospitable
to one another without complaint. 10 As each one has
received a special gift, employ it in serving one another
as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11
Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the
utterances of God;

3. whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the
strength which God supplies; so that in all things God
may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs
the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

4. And Finally
1 Peter 4:7–11

5. Sound familiar?
Sound judgement and sober spirit
Romans 12:3…For through the grace given to me I say
to everyone among you not to think more highly of
himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to
have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a
measure of faith.

6. Encore
1 Peter 4:8…Above all, keep fervent in your love for one
another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
1 Corinthians 13-The use of spiritual gifts without love
is childish
Self sacrificing

7. Charisma
1 Peter 4:10…As each one has received a special gift,
employ it in serving one another as good stewards of
the manifold grace of God.
• Serving each other
• Stewards manage what is someone else’s
Echo of Paul’s teaching

8. You all have a gift
1 Corinthians 12:7…But to each one is given the
manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

9. Put another way
2 Peter 1:2–3…Grace and peace be multiplied to you in
the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; seeing
that His divine power has granted to us everything
pertaining to life and godliness, through the true
knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and
excellence.
We have been granted everything we need

10. What have we been granted
Prophecy Pastor Teaching Wisdom
Knowledge Giving Helps Mercy
Missionary Evangelist Hospitality Faith
Leadership Administration Miracles Healing
Tongues Interpretation Service Exhortation
Discerning of Spirits Deliverance ministry
Intercession

11. Did I miss anything?
1 Peter 4:11a…Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who
is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to
do so as one who is serving by the strength which God
supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified
through Jesus Christ...

12. Two categories
Speaking
Doing

13. A word from the Lord
Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the
utterances of God
God breathed inspiration

14. A service
whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the
strength which God supplies
God given energy
1 Corinthians 12:6…There are varieties of effects, but
the same God who works all things in all persons.

15. What happens
…so that in all things God may be glorified through
Jesus Christ
1 Corinthians 12:7…But to each one is given the
manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
We are edified

16. Needs to be more than a slogan

17. What next
1. 5 mins of prayer
2. Spiritual Gift Inventory
3. Turn it in
4. Be commissioned

18. Be commissioned?
1 Peter 2:9…But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal
PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, A PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN
POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of
Him who has called you out of darkness into His
marvelous light;

19. Anoint and pray
1 Timothy 4:14…Do not neglect the spiritual gift within
you, which was bestowed on you through prophetic
