Are you ignorant about spiritual gifts?
Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The Holy Spirit desires that believers do not remain ignorant about the deeper elements of the Christian life, referred to as neumaticon, which encompasses spiritual gifts and the supernatural manifestations of the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul emphasizes the importance of not being childish and lacking knowledge in this area. The deep Christian life is a power life that requires knowledge in areas such as spiritual warfare, fasting, prayer, and worship. Adoration has incredible power to break mountains and mature believers understand its importance. The Holy Spirit-filled Christian knows how to deal with demonic forces and has victory over the power of the devil. The Christian who lives in the power and fullness of the Holy Spirit understands that prayer and fasting are sources of power that must be pursued.

The speaker also encourages believers to embrace weakness and move in the power of the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes the need for believers to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to continually seek the filling of the Spirit. The speaker concludes by stating that he wants everyone in the church to be filled with the Holy Spirit so that they can be effective witnesses for Christ.

Let's go to First Corinthians, chapter 12, one verse only, verse 1, which is the desire of the Holy Spirit for you, for me, for our church, the desire of the Holy Spirit expressed through the voice of the Apostle Paul. And the Apostle Paul tells us, and the Holy Spirit tells us: "I do not want, brothers, - and that brother is you, put your name there - I do not want, Congregation León de Judá, I do not want, believers, Christians, I do not want ignorant about spiritual gifts..."
God does not want you to be ignorant about spiritual gifts and that is my message this afternoon. I want you to take that. God does not want you to be childish about the depths of the spirit. Rather, God wants us to know the elements of the Christian life, the nutrients, the science of life deep in the spirit. God wants us to be well informed, educated about the things that provide for a powerful and spirit-filled life.
