Gifts of the Spirit in Mormonism
In Mormonism, gifts of the Spirit are spiritual endowments that provide benefits to the recipient. The seventh Article of Faith states: "We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth." Both males and females can receive spiritual gifts. They are an important component in both the basic beliefs and daily living of Mormons.

While some Charismatic Christians believe that spiritual gifts are an arbitrary endowment of grace, an important Mormon idea is that spiritual gifts can be developed through diligent seeking. Some gifts are developed in pre-existence. Other spiritual gifts are developed during mortal life and identified by priesthood blessings. As teenagers, many Mormons receive a patriarchal blessing which seeks to reveal some spiritual gifts by revelation. For those who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), this blessing is recorded and saved in the official church archives.
In contemporary Mormonism, spiritual gifts are most often associated with the gift of the Holy Ghost, which is bestowed by the laying on of hands following baptism in an ordinance called confirmation. This ordinance is usually performed at a baptismal service or sacrament meeting. During the ordinance, the person being confirmed will receive the verbal admonition to "receive the Holy Ghost." From this point forward, the person will be entitled to the constant companionship of the Holy Spirit if they have living faith in Jesus Christ and are in a state of true repentance. The recipient will also be entitled to receive personal revelation.
There is no clear consensus among Mormon thinkers on whether or not non-Mormons, who have not received the gift of the Holy Ghost, can enjoy spiritual gifts. Early Mormon references do not stress the idea that spiritual gifts are entirely predicated on the gift of the Holy Ghost, while contemporary opinions often do.
