God doesn’t draw names to see who gets which gift either. No, He chooses specific gift(s) for believers in order to accomplish His purpose which is to build up, to encourage, and to comfort those who live by faith. There are as many gifts as there are needs, so His children will never be deprived of a spiritual gift.
