The best gift a man can receive is
the gift of the Holy Ghost. This gift is also known as spiritual
gift. Spiritual gifts make other physical (material) gifts to find
expression in your life. When this gift is at work in a man's life,
it makes room for him; opens doors for him & brings him before great
men. Proverbs 18: 16. What you need first is this spiritual gift and the moment
it is at work in your life,
every other gift answers to
you. The gift of the spirit are primarily for our profiting. 1 Corinthians
12: 7.
WHAT ARE THESE GIFTS?
1. The nine gifts of the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12 : 7-10. Any of these gifts is enough to announce you to your world and bring you before great men.
2. The seven spirits of God. Isaiah 11: 1-2. These are the spirits that were upon Christ. The exploits in the life of Christ were as a result of these gifts that were present in his life.
3. Other tangible spiritual gifts such as:
a. the spirit of faith: 2 Corinthians 4: 13
b. the spirit of love: 2 Timothy 1: 6-7
c. the spirit of vision and guidance: Joel 2: 28

You do not need all these gifts to
be announced to your world as one is just enough. This is why you have to
covet the best one for you to fulfil destiny. Samson had one of the gifts
of the spirit at work in him and this was the gift of might. This
connotes physical strength or physical health. When this gift is at work
in a man's life, sickness or disease cannot have dominion over him. Every
exploit of Samson is as a result of the spirit of might inside of him.
Judges 13: 25; 14: 5-6 & 19; 16: 20 & 25-30.

Loving what God loves is one of the ways to prove our love for God and soul winning is a proof of our love for God.

WHY PEOPLE FAIL TO WIN SOULS
1 Satan: Satan does not want anyone saved as he knows that the moment people are saved, they leave his control and Kingdom for God's so he does everything possible to discourage us from reaching out to lost souls.
2. Ignorance: This is the absence of knowledge or inadequate knowledge of the implications or benefits of soul winning. The blood of sinners will be required from us if we fail to win them before they die. Ezekiel 3: 18; while there is a reward for soul winning. John 4: 36.
3. Excuses: People give various excuses like: I am shy; I can't talk; I don't know the Scripture; I am busy; my job will not permit me etc.
4. Wilful disobedience: Knowing what to do and failing to do it.

we must not fail to do" Mark 16: 15.
