This document is a summary of Pastor Mark Schwarzbauer's teaching on the 24 gifts of the Holy Spirit. It discusses the gifts under two categories: motivational gifts and ministry gifts. The motivational gifts discussed are leadership and mercy. Leadership involves standing before others and following God with diligence. Mercy involves helping sensitively and cheerfully without enabling unhealthy behavior. The ministry gifts discussed are apostles, prophets, teachers, miracles, healings, helps, and administrations. Apostles are sent ones who reach the lost. Helps and administrations involve meeting people's needs and organizing groups. The purpose of the gifts is to win the lost, build up believers, and worship God.

3. 6 Having then gifts differing according to
the grace that is given to us, let us use
them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in
proportion to our faith; 7 or ministry,
let us use it in our ministering; he who
teaches, in teaching; 8 he who exhorts,
in exhortation; he who gives, with
liberality; he who leads, with diligence;
he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

The
Motivational Gifts
Continued

6. Leadership literally means
“stand before”.
With diligence – literally “fast
obedience.”
Make sure you are quick to
follow God and not lead people
in a wrong direction.

7. Guard your motivation in
leadership. Don’t be motivated
by power, money, having your
own way etc. Motus operandi-
quick submission to God.

8. Mercy that is a gift of Spirit is not
merely a highly sensitive or
compassionate person – they can be an
easy target for manipulation.
The Gift of Mercy - Not simply
compassion that can be misdirected or
compromised but sensitive mercy
cheerfully applied and loyal to God’s
covenant – Micah 6:8.

9. Helping people without enabling
unhealthy behavior.
Mercy and Justice are not mutually
exclusive. The Gift of Mercy brings
God’s justice in a tenderhearted way.
Cheerfulness is from ἱλαρότητι
(hilarotēti) – hilarious!!!!

10. The Gift of Mercy doesn’t create a
burned out, heartbroken giver of
mercy. Hilariously be merciful –
enjoying that you are bringing
Jesus to people and people closer to
Jesus.
