On the most basic level, the word impart means "to give or to bestow or to convey."
Biblical Impartation, is NOT just the act of giving something or granting something
Otherwise it would NOT require definition since we already have terms like “Giving & Generosity”
The IMPARTATION we are discussing is what Paul was talking about in Romans 1:11
Rom. 1:11
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established

The term we need to pay close attention to “spiritual gift” SO THAT you may be ESTABLISHED. Hold on to that for now, we will return to it to give it SPECIFIC and PRACTICAL definition.
We will now take a look at other instances in the Bible to see if impartation has always been God’s way of functioning with the SENT ones.
