Gift of Miracles, Prophecy and Discerning of spirits

God's gifts are a trust, placed in the hands or the body of an individual, and never forget that. No gift of the Spirit is ever given for personal glory or for "show." The Holy Spirit will magnify and glorify only one person, and that one person is Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus Himself told us that the Holy Spirit "will glorify me," and He will glorify, He will magnify, He will bring attention to Jesus only. Therefore, we know that when the Holy Spirit gives this wonderful trust to an individual, when He puts this trust into the hands or into the body of an individual, that one is out of order if he uses that gift to bring personal glory to himself, for any selfish gain, or for anything that is spectacular. That's the very reason that Paul, in writing to the Corinthian believers, began the 12th Chapter with the words, "I would not have you to be ignorant concerning the USE of these gifts." Each gift is to be held in subjection to the Lord, and His authority must be recognized in the use of all gifts.
