This is one of my favorite greek words…and it is the root word for the english word “manifestion” in the key verse for today, 1 Cor 12:7. Call me wierd but I just like the way it sounds. Phaneroo, phaneroo, phaneroo.

Its a larger than life word meaning to make visible or clear, to plainly reveal or show.

So in the verse it says “Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.” Each one of us is a display of what God is and what the holy Spirit is up to. Each one of us is a display of God so that the goodness of God shine onto all around us.

Do you have an example of a phaneroo (an obvious display of the Holy Spirit in someones life today) you can share?
