The following Spiritual Gifts are often referred to as, "The Nine Gifts of the Holy Spirit." These are supernatural gifts and, according to scripture, are available to all Christians.
The Apostle Paul said:
The Nine Gifts of the Spirit Fall into three Divisions:
Gifts of Revelation:
1-The Word of Wisdom:
A supernatural revelation, or insight into the divine will and purpose, often given by the Spirit to solve perplexing problems and situations.
2-The Word of Knowledge:
The Word of Knowledge is a supernatural revelation of Divine knowledge or insight in the Divine mind, will or plan, to know things that could not be known of oneself.
3-Discerning of Spirits:
This is a supernatural revelation or insight into the realm of spirits to detect their presence and plans.
Gifts of Inspiration:
4-Prophecy:
Prophecy is the supernatural utterance in the native tongue. It is a miracle of divine utterance, not conceived by human thought or reasoning. It includes speaking unto men to edification, exhortation, and comfort.
5-Divers Kinds of Tongues:
The supernatural utterance in other languages that are not known to the speaker.
6-The Interpretation of Tongues:
The supernatural ability to interpret in the native tongue what is uttered in other languages not known by the one who interprets by the Spirit.
Gifts of Power:
7-Gift of Faith:
This is a supernatural ability to believe God without human doubt, unbelief, and reasonings.
8-The Gift of Healing:
The healing of all manner of sickness by supernatural power, without human aid or medicine.
9-The Working of Miracles:
Is supernatural power to intervene in the ordinary course of nature and to counteract natural laws if necessary.
According to Scripture, the Gifts of the Spirit are to continue to work through the Followers of Christ until His return.

Question:
Mary: Canada
Hi, l have a question regarding the Holy Spirit. I am wondering why many songs and some people pray and ask the Holy Spirit to come into our lives when, as a Christian, the Holy Spirit, when we accepted Christ as our Savior, are given the Holy Spirit.
So l want to understand why songs and pastors ask for the Holy Spirit to come over and over. I believe God has given His children His Spirit, and we do not have to continue to ask. Could you explain this? Blessings, Mary
RESPONSE:
Hi Mary, yes, you are correct. Rest assured that when a person is born-again, the Holy Spirit enters and abides within that person forever.
"God in Man" is what sets Christianity apart from all the religions in the world. We can then personally pray and worship our Father God and ask for His Divine favors and help.
Drawing near to God is a part of pure worship: When we pray and worship God, we draw nearer to Him and can more greatly sense His Holy Spirit and love. If we draw near unto Him, He will draw near to us, (James 4:8).
I believe that many times, what people are asking for when they request the Holy Spirit to come, is for the empowerment of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, as was seen on the Day of Pentecost.
It is never the person, but the power of God that performs miracles. However, the Holy Spirit does bestow gifts on those who He chooses to work through to accomplish His will, perhaps as one of the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit listed on this page.
Quite often, this is not explained very well and can be very confusing. But there is a difference in having the blessed Holy Spirit abiding within, and in being empowered by the Holy Spirit.
As you said in your response, The Holy Spirit continually abides within every Christian, so it can only be that the people you referred to are requesting the Holy Spirit to come upon them with power.
I will be happy to answer any follow-up questions.
I pray you will be blessed in all your ways,
Samuel
Theophilus: Ghana
I would like to know if the manifestation of any of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is dependent on the gift of faith. In other words, do I need to have the gift of faith before I can manifest the gifts of healing, prophecy, and working miracles?
Thanking you in advance for your candid response.
Response:
A measure of faith is a gift from God to all men; without it, none of the succeeding steps of faith would be possible.
.
It is a faith that has not grown but is sufficient for belief in God and salvation.
In Romans 12:3, it is referred to as "The Measure of Faith."
The Measure of Faith is a gift from God.
I believe the following is a page you will find very helpful.
