According to God's plan in the Scriptures, he pours out his Spirit with his gifts so that our witness can be validated to be from God and not ourselves. When a person is filled with the Holy Spirit and follows the lead of the Holy Spirit, then God can manifest the gift he wishes to be used in any given situation. Are we open to the gifts of the Holy Spirit? Most Christians have relegated these gifts of the Spirit to a former time or to a few special people. God doesn't force the gifts upon us. He gives us free will to use or not use them. If we have buried these gifts, will God not hold us accountable for them, even unused? Be not afraid to be open to the lead of the Holy Spirit, as he accomplishes the work he has been sent to do. Pray for a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit, then be attentive and act on his direction. Come, Holy Spirit, come.
