Which of the following is one of the nine gifts of the Spirit recognized by the Assemblies of God?

• A. Word of Wisdom
• B. Gifts of helps
• C. Intercession
• D. Administration

Answer: (A)

In this context, focus on the supernatural gifts the Spirit distributes to build up the church. Among the nine gifts recognized by the Assemblies of God, the Word of Wisdom is the one that fits. A Word of Wisdom is a divine insight or plan given by the Holy Spirit to navigate a situation or make a decision in a way that aligns with God’s will. It isn’t just good common sense; it comes as a timely, Spirit-supplied understanding that helps act wisely in a specific moment, often about future steps or practical actions.

Think of a scenario where natural planning isn’t enough and a discernment beyond human reasoning is needed. Someone might receive a clear sense of the best course of action that protects the church and advances God’s purposes. That precise, Spirit-given direction is what distinguishes a Word of Wisdom from ordinary advice.

Gifts of helps, intercession, and administration aren’t part of the official nine gifts the Assemblies of God identifies as the manifestation gifts of the Spirit. Helps refers more to support roles, intercession to dedicated prayer, and administration to organizational ability. While valuable, they aren’t counted among those nine miraculous gifts in this framework.
