The Gift of Faith for Evangelism

The Gift of Faith is associated with the two Gifts of Power. The gifts of Healing and the working of miracles. In practice, the Gift of Faith often serves as a catalyst to bring the other two gifts into operation. This is illustrated by the industry by the Ministry of Phillip in Samaria, as described in the Book of Acts. “5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 8:7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed [with them]: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8:8 And there was great joy in that city.” Acts 8:5-8. In the first phase of His Ministry, Phillip cast out evil spirits. In the second phase of Phillips Ministry, the other two gifts of Power, Miracles and Healings, came into operation. As a result, miracles were performed, the paralyzed and the lame were healed. In Acts 21:8, Phillip is called ‘The Evangelist’. In His Ministry there was a strong emphasis on the casting out of evil spirits, which was followed by miracles and healings. The three Gifts of Power, Faith Miracles and healings, together constitute the supernatural equipment for the Ministry of an Evangelist.
