In 1 Corinthians 12:28, the ministries are listed and then the gifts that help us to fulfill those ministries. God equips us for the ministry He calls us to.
The gift of helps are what Christianity is all about. It takes thought and consideration to perform this ministry. The Spirit makes us sensitive and attuned to one another
(1 Corinthians 12:26).
A. The gifts of helps are a witness to others of Christ in us. These gifts are practical evidence of love. They should be done with cheerfulness (hilarity) and as unto the Lord (Romans 12:8, Colossians 3:17).
B. We should exercise the ministry of helps so that we are not seeking praise from others for ourselves. God should receive the glory from what we do.
C. We need to be satisfied with where God places us in the body and fulfill our ministry joyfully as unto Him.
