Book of Corinthians: Chapter 12; Verse 1-14Verse 1-3: Now concerning spiritual gifts, brother, I do not want you to be ignorant. You know that you were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, however you were led. Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.
Verse 4-7: There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all.
Verse 8-10: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
Verse 11-14: But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills. For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body – whether the Jews or Greek, whether slave or free – and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. For in fact the body is not one member but many.
Book o
f Corinthians: Chapter 13, Verse 1-12Verse 1-3: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have no love, I have become sounding brass of a clanging Cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have faith, so that I could remove mountain, but have no love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have no love, it profits me nothing.
Verse 4-8: Love suffers long and kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, think no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoice in the truth; bears all thing, believes in all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
Verse 9-13: For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but when face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope and love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
1st King: Chapter 19, Verse 11 & 12
And He said, go out and stand on the mount before the Lord. And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and stormy wind, rent the mountain and broke in pieces the rock before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, and after the earthquake, a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire, a still small voice.
Ephesians: Chapter 4: verse 23
Be renewed in the spirit of your mind and put on a new man.
Joel: Chapter 2, Verse 28 & 29
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants, I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

Act: Chapter 2, Verse 1 – 4,Verse 1-4: When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Galatians: Chapter 5, Verse 16-26
Verse 16-18: I say then: “Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Verse 19-21: Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissentions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Verse 22-26: But the fruit of the Spirit is:
LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONGSUFFERING, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS and SELF-CONTROL.
And those who are in Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
Isaiah: Chapter 11, Verse 1-4There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots. The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of Wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of Counsel and Might,
The Spirit of Knowledge and of the Fear of the Lord.
His delight is in the fear of the Lord and He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears; But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
