The Travis Rutland Podcast

In this episode of the Travis Rutland Podcast (Ep. 002), I continue our series on the gifts of the Spirit from 1 Corinthians 12, focusing on the intuitive gifts—word of wisdom, word of knowledge, and discerning of spirits. These are not natural abilities, but supernatural gifts the Holy Spirit distributes as He wills, often speaking into situations, people, and spiritual atmospheres in ways that go beyond human understanding, as seen throughout the book of Acts. Join me as we learn how the Holy Spirit still speaks today, how to walk in humility, and how to discern what is truly from God versus what only appears spiritual on the surface. My prayer is that this message strengthens your faith, sharpens your discernment, and draws you deeper into a Spirit-filled life that bears fruit for the Kingdom.— Travis Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - PODCAST(00:00:41) - The Gifts of the Spirit(00:02:29) - God Will Speak to All of Us(00:06:17) - The Gifts of the Spirit(00:08:01) - Walking Through the Gifts of the Spirit(00:09:22) - Word of Wisdom and Knowledge(00:10:57) - Word of Wisdom for Paul's Journey to Rome(00:13:28) - What is Word of Wisdom?(00:17:02) - Introspective Gifts(00:21:57) - Word of Knowledge(00:26:13) - Word of Knowledge and Respect for the Gifts of the Spirit(00:30:40) - Discerning of Spirits(00:35:29) - Discernment of Spirits(00:39:56) - Tom Madden: The Church of God in Cartersville(00:44:32) - Travis Rutland

In this episode of the Travis Rutland Podcast (Ep. 001), I begin a foundational series on the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Turning to Acts 1:8 and 1 Corinthians 12, I teach what the gifts are, how they operate, and why Jesus first promised power before manifestations. As a Pentecostal, Spirit-filled church, we believe these gifts are active for today and given for the strengthening of the body of Christ. The gifts are diverse, distributed by the Holy Spirit, and given to every believer for the profit of all. But more than chasing gifts, we must first receive the power of the Holy Spirit that transforms us, frees us, and equips us to live boldly for Christ. Do not neglect what God has placed in you—ask, receive, and walk in the power He promised.— Travis Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - PODCAST(00:00:42) - The Gifts of the Spirit(00:02:50) - Acts 1,2-3(00:03:36) - Paul on the Gifts of the Spirit(00:04:25) - The mystery of the spiritual walk(00:10:26) - Spiritual Gifts(00:13:05) - Paul lists the 5fold Ministry Gifts in 1 Corinthians 12(00:15:45) - Spiritual Gifts are Diversity(00:18:21) - Not Everybody Has All of the Gifts of the Spirit(00:23:02) - Receiving the Gifts of God(00:28:10) - Spiritual Gifts, Don't Be Scared(00:33:49) - Spiritual Gifts(00:35:14) - All the Gifts of the Holy Spirit(00:39:42) - Do You Have Power?(00:44:40) - A Fresh Touch of the Holy Spirit
