6 But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?
7 Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played?

Focus on
Interpretation and Prophecy .
Interpretation and Gift of Tongue to work toghter ..
Speak what is said in unkown to know .. but it is interpretation not translation .
God can give you a word that intrepreat sistuation , issue , atomshpere..
So when some speak it tongues , it is intereation , communicatiing the sense.
Interpreating ..:Utterance of the spirit can be interprated into the sense of the worshipper , so their flexibility , however is communicating in a know language the sense of what was said in an unkown langguage . it is preceed by an unterrance in an unknow tongue .
Prophecy is speaking in the language that is know words that are given by the HOLY SPIRIT. they do not proceed from humna understanding they are given supernatural by the holy spirit .
translated “prophesy” means to speak for another. So “prophesy” can mean to speak for God or to be His spokesman.
A new dimension of personal communication and communion with GOD.
God beging to direct you into your purpose and future .
The whole spiritual work become rather real and life .
STEP 1. The GIFTS ARE MANIFESTION OF THE SPIRIT
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,
9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
it is a stewardship … PROFIT OF ALL
Each one , Each individual have access to the manifestation , but the spirit determine what , which manifestion .
31 But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
The Gift are not tolls they are tools you need them to do the JOB.
1 Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
3 But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.
So are u particulay desiring to prophesy.. if not you are obeying the scriputre.
26 How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.
27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret.
That is what should happen when we come toghter , we should not come merely just to received, we should come each of us sth to contribute . And how we can contribute is by the gift of the spirit .. that is God equalizer in the church .

5 I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.
12 Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.
13 Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
To buiding up individual and the church .
>>>>LET HIM WHO SPEAK IN A TONGUE PRAY THAT HE MAY INTERPRET>>>
24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
25 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
9 Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation,
So if your speak in tongue , you can pray to interpret .
Two Principle of pertition
14 Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.
24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

General Assrance of Prayer and Talking to ur father .
9 “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
10 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
11 If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?
12 Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

The discription of the church
23 Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?
24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all.
25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

Prayer...
Personal Application :
Prophecy in One’s Prayer Life The gift of prophecy, like tongues, has to do with more than just public utterance. Prophecy can be used in one’s prayer life too. For example, in the Book of Psalms, prophecy was used in prayer and praise to God. As a matter of fact, the whole Book of Psalms was given by the spirit of prophecy. The Psalms were Israel’s prayer and songbook. Some of the psalms are prayers that were given by inspired utterance. We can see prophecy being used in the believer’s prayer life in the New Testament too.
For example, in
19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
believers are encouraged to speak to themselves “. . . in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.” That is the gift of prophecy in operation.
Many times while praying, a person can speak in tongues and then speak out things by the Spirit of God.
Speaking with tongues is the beginning of the things of the Spirit, because speaking with tongues is the door into the supernatural.
And we know that the gift of tongues is given to every Spirit-filled believer as the evidence of the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
Also, Jesus didn’t say that just a few disciples should speak with tongues. He said that all believers should speak with tongues: “And these signs shall follow them that believe . . . they shall speak with new tongues” (Mark 16:17).
But God wants every Spirit-filled believer to do more than speak with tongues. He wants us to be able to interpret what we pray in tongues, as the Spirit leads. “Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret” (1 Cor. 14:13).
God wouldn’t tell us to pray for something we couldn’t have. Of course, it is not necessary to interpret everything we pray in the Spirit in our own private prayer life. And then, of course, there is also the public use of the gift of interpretation of tongues.
That is to be used in the local assembly: “If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret” (1 Cor. 14:27).
Not every believer will have this gift; not every believer will minister publicly in the gift of interpretation of tongues. And God also wants us to prophesy in order to bring comfort and encouragement to the Body of Christ because the Bible plainly says, “. . . desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy . . . he that prophesieth edifieth the church” (1 Cor. 14:1,4).
Through this gift of prophecy we can speak supernaturally, not only unto believers and for our own personal benefit, but we can also speak supernaturally unto God
19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Prophesying in your own personal prayer life begins with speaking in other tongues
2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
In my own experience, for example, as I pray in other tongues, my spirit is in direct contact with God, yet I am communicating with Him in a tongue that is unknown to me. When you are speaking in tongues, that is a supernatural utterance in an unknown tongue. Paul said when we pray in an unknown tongue, our understanding is unfruitful, unless we interpret what we are praying
14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
1 Cor. 14:14,15
15 What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.
In other words, we don’t always know what we are praying about when we pray in other tongues. However, when you pray with prophecy, you can listen to yourself speak in a known tongue and, therefore, you can know what you are saying. Very often praying in tongues is a springboard to go into prophecy in prayer.
Remember, prophecy in its broadest sense is inspired utterance. For example, sometimes I pray about certain things with my own understanding, which may not necessarily be inspired utterance at all. I may just be praying as well as I know how to about the situation in my own understanding — in my own native language. (Of course, one can also pray in one’s understanding in his own language in the Spirit; that is, inspired and directed by the Holy Spirit.)
Then as I pray about the situation awhile in tongues, many times I move over into prophecy — inspired utterance. Then as I pray by inspired utterance, I can actually be praying out the plan of God by inspired utterance as the word of wisdom
13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
(John 16:13; Cor. 14:1-5 Amplified) manifests through the gift of prophecy in my private prayer life. This can happen in the private prayer life of any Spirit-filled believer.
Praying in prophecy can carry with it a more authoritative anointing because you can actually be praying out the word of wisdom in prayer through the vehicle of prophecy.
Praying out the word of wisdom through prophecy lifts you above where you were before in prayer and many times reveals to you a part or a fragment of the plan of God — a “word” of wisdom. You are actually praying out the plan and purpose of God for your own life in prayer (John 16:13,14).
However, a distinction must be made between praying out the plan of God in one’s own private prayer life by the word of wisdom through the vehicle of prophecy, and in the word of wisdom mani-festing through a believer in prophecy in public mini-stry.
Any believer can pray out the plan of God for his own life (John 16:13,14) either in tongues or as the Spirit wills, in prophecy. But that is distinct and separate from public ministry. Because the Holy Spirit may show the believer things to come in private times of prayer, does not necessarily mean that the word of wisdom will operate through the believer publicly.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
Also, we must realize that the word of knowledge or the word of wisdom may operate in the believer’s life in prayer, but that doesn’t make him a prophet. There is a difference between the believer who may operate in these spiritual gifts in his own private prayer life, and one who stands in a fivefold office (such as the prophet) through whom the Holy Spirit manifests spiritual gifts in public ministry. Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs By the Gift of Prophecy Paul said, “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit” (Eph. 5:18). Then in the next verse he said, “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.” We read in Acts chapter 13 that the disciples ministered to the Lord. This was perhaps one way that they ministered to the Lord — by singing and making melody in their hearts to Him. Psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs are not songs that are sung out of a songbook. They are songs given by the inspiration of the Spirit of God. A psalm is a spiritual poem or an ode. It can be recited or chanted or sung. The hymn and the spiritual song are, of course, sung. One who is given more to singing would probably sing the psalms and hymns given to him by inspiration of the Spirit. Psalms and hymns come through the spirit of prophecy as an inspired utterance, and therefore could also come through the vehicle of tongues and interpretation. I am not a singer. Therefore, when I get psalms, particularly during times of stress or strain or when I am going through a crisis,
crisis, I just recite them. Sometimes I will speak in psalms all night long to myself and to the Lord, one right after another. These psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs are given spontaneously by the inspiration of the Spirit. They are a demonstration of the gift of prophecy or its equivalent tongues and interpretation in manifestation. These psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs can be used to comfort us in times of tests or trials. Paul writing to the Church at Colossae even further said, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs . . .” (Col. 3:16). Another interesting thing to note is that the order of the services in the Early Church evidently differed from ours in that believers went to church because they had something, not just to get something. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:26 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. . . . Why did they have a psalm they could share with one another? Because they had been speaking in psalms to the Lord; they had been edifying themselves at home. The Book of Psalms in the Old Testament were not written to us in the same way the Epistles were written directly to us — the Church. We read the psalms and they bless us and encourage us because they are inspired by the Spirit. There is some revelation in some of these psalms concerning prophecy of the coming Christ and of things pertaining to the future and to the Church.
But many of the psalms were given to David, for example, when he was going through a certain test or trial in his life. For instance, one time Saul sought to kill David. While hiding in a cave, David got a psalm by the spirit of prophecy, and it was given to him personally to encourage him. It encouraged him then, and those psalms encourage us, too, when we are facing tests and trials in life. So we can see why Paul said to the members of the Church at Corinth, and to Christians everywhere, to covet to prophesy, for in this way they can talk to God supernaturally and to themselves in a known language. There is a fellowship in the Spirit that comes through using prophecy in prayer that is beyond what we’ve previously experienced. God’s Word teaches that all Spirit-filled believers should not only speak with tongues when they are initially filled with the Spirit, but they should continue to speak with tongues as a continual experience, after they are filled with the Spirit. The Word also teaches that all Spirit-filled believers should be speaking to themselves in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. If we follow Paul’s admonition today and covet to prophesy, we, too, can speak to ourselves in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Begin to covet to prophesy because the Word of God encourages believers to do so. First Corinthians 12:31 says, “. . . covet earnestly the best gifts. . . .” As you do, then you will be able to speak supernaturally to the Body of Christ God’s words of edification, exhortation, and comfort as the Spirit wills. You will also be able to speak supernaturally through the gift of prophecy in your private prayer life, edifying yourself and worshipping God in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.
