Introduction
UNDERSTANDING MOTIVATIONAL GIFTS BASICS
In Romans 12, the Apostle Paul says that our response to all that God has done and is doing should be a whole-hearted, fully-integrated life of worship. Every attitude, thought, word, and deed in our lives ought to be an offering of excellent devotion and pleasing worship to God. Paul then tells us that our response should be to use the gifts God has given us to bless others and worship Him. Walking in our gifts isn’t only about the people we mightily impact, but also our proper worship of our Heavenly Father in response to His gift of salvation.
Using the human body as an analogy, Paul explains that every Christian has unique functions in Christ’s Body, the Church. God designed and strategically placed each part of our human bodies. Accordingly, God the Father has designed each of us with specific gifts we get to use to worship Him and bless the Church and the world around us.
The gifts described in Romans 12:6-8 are given by the Father. The gifts mentioned in Ephesians 4:11 are given by Jesus Christ. And, the gifts in 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 are given by the Holy Spirit. There are important distinctions to be made concerning these various gifts from the Persons of the Godhead.
The Motivational Gifts Assessment will focus on the gifts described in Romans 12:6-8. These gifts – referred to as motivational gifts – are given by God the Father to influence the motives behind what we do and how we do it when attempting to make a contribution to a given situation. As if it weren’t enough that we’re made in the image of God, we’re also each uniquely endowed with particular characteristics of our Heavenly Father that we are to use to bless others and glorify God!
