Power to pray effectively and fervently.

Funny enough, the most important power wasnt listed there.

St Paul said in 1st cor 13 that even if he has all the powers and doesn't have love, its a waste of time. love is the most powerful force/power.

Once you have it, all others will come.

Six Gift/Power You Should Seek from God as a born again Christian. It's a free gift to you .

1) Power to receive Revelation and Visions.

2) Power of the holy spirit.

3) Power to Prophecy.

4) Power to Speak in tongues

5) Power to Heal the Sick

6) Power to Cast out demons in the Name of Jesus.
I am not understanding because when you have the infilling of the Holyspirit, the evidence is that you speak in tongues. The gift of the spirit includes but not limited to prophecy and faith. Faith is what is required to heal the sick and cast out demons... so, so?

No power to love abi?
That one is not important grin

It is the reason why Africa will continue to remain backward, because love is never in their radar

Brother, you don't need power to love na.. Power kwa It's really this kind of mentality that keeps the country backward... Talking without thinking deep, that is to say, talking anyhow grin grin grin grin

(1) Power to receive Revelation and Visions: Yet those who claim to have the power can't see their own future let alone Nigeria's future.

(2) Power of the holy Spirit: To do what exactly

(3) Power to prophecy: And those who claim to prophesy are struggling with their own lives and inviting unnecessary forces to themselves by their proclamations.
Ignorant folks.

(4) Power to speak in tongues: And become a barbarian, be deceiving yourself thinking your utterances confuses the devil since it is an heavenly language.
Funny enough, the devil was once a part of heaven...says the "holy" book.

(5)Power to heal the sick: And the power was not yet invented when Corona was turning the world upside down to the extent of shutting down churches cheesy
Perhaps you are not aware that Coronavirus is still lurking around.

(6)Power to cast out demons in the name of Jesus: A function of point 3 above.

At the end of the day, both Christians and none Christians are subjected to the same fate...the same natural principles; same food, same accidents, same sicknesses, same health, same sleep, same life and same death. Just different "thinking"...about perhaps, heaven and hell and God...Jesus stuff... that changes nothing.

You're getting it all wrong sir. One thing satan does well is to hide the truth from unbelievers so that they see things superficially and use their sense of reasoning alone to make judgement. Jesus is working great wonders in the lives of His own bro, I don't know about you, but I'm a living witness wink wink wink
Jesus is real
JESUS IS LORD OF ALL

Weldone sir!

The holy ghost is the custodian of powers, if the holy spirit is the power itself I won't say that's not true, I agree with you. But you should know what a custodian is and it is left for believers to seek genuine anointing from God. There are powers to do different things( anointing) healing power,casting out demons etc....the life of Jesus it was demonstrated, there are type of situation that deserves some kind of knowledge and power

I would truly love to learn from you. But could you, please, give me a bible reference that supports the bolded?
God bless you.

Sir, apostle Paul didn't say "powers" in 1Cor 13:2, but "gift".

Hmmm! But first, seek for power to live above sin. It opens every door and the auction to wield the powers listed above. Satan uses our sins as exhibits to deprive us of every power or gift you can think of.

Apostle Paul talked about spiritual gifts in the book of conrithians well addressing spiritual gifts, he told them about tongues, gift of healing, revelation, prophesies, and he said it is by the same spirit but to each he gave different gifts.

I believe this is justice enough.

you want to think deep abi?
Tell me, when someone is empowered financially to assist others isn't that love?
At that point tell me that the invidual who is assisting does not have power or being empowered?

Have you heard that money is power?

Lol. Sir powers and gift in this case are the same.

The power of speaking in tongues or casting out devils, or healing the sick are still gifts. The powers were GIFTED to Christians by God.

So the gift is the act of giving the power to the Christian sir.
