Spiritual Gift - Exhortation
Earthly ExampleIf you saw someone cheat on a test you feel the urge to explain why it's wrong and encourage them to study harder. Parents will sometimes encourage their kids to do the right thing. Celebrities might appear on a commercial asking you to recycle or to help rescue animals.

Spiritual ExplanationThe Holy Spirit will often give you a huge urge to tell someone to do the right thing. The Holy Spirit might nudge you to go over and encourage people on a regular basis. People with exhortation gifts are needed to tell other Christians to keep going when times are tough. They encourage people that God is there to help. They are an extension of God's encouraging words. Do not worry what to say because the Holy Spirit will give you what to say.
