Hearing What the Spirit is Saying unto the Church! In 1Corinthians 12, the Apostle Paul lays out for the church an explanation of Spiritual Gifts. If you read the list, you will see that three of the gifts are vocal. Prophecy is words inspired by the Spirit in a known language. Tongues are words inspired by the Spirit in an unknown tongue. Interpretation of tongues is a Spirit given rendering of an unknown tongue. Below is an example of the gift of prophecy.
The following excerpt is taken from a prophecy that was given by Kenneth E. Hagin on September 22, 1996.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah all of these signs shall come to pass, the Gospel be preached and all the world is a witness and then the end shall come. So we come to the end of time. Days are flowing by, months are gone, years – but looking at the Holy Writ we see this sign, that sign, the other sign already fulfilled. Listening to the Spirit of God with your own spirit, a divine witness, the end is at hand, the end is at hand. Are you prepared? Prepare yourself to be laborers in the harvest for the harvest must come, for the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth and he has long patience for it, till he receive the early and the latter rain. Many of us have been restrained from entering into the fullness of that which the Spirit has for us. We come up to the place and seemingly can go no further in ministry and you’re one of them. But the time has come, ha ha, and now is, to step in. Just one little step and the glory will come. Just one little step with determination and courage to move out further in the realm of the Spirit than where you have been. You know how to yield and to move where you’ve been but the flesh is weak but the spirit’s willing. So keep the flesh under and respond, respond to the Spirit.
Say not, it’s for others – but say, it’s for me. I’ll listen and give full heed unto what he’s saying, walking in the light of what I know. Come into know more, sharing with others so they shall be blessed. The work of God shall go forward with the hand of the Lord upon you. The Kingdom of God shall be enhanced, the Church of God added unto and the blessings of the Lord flow like a mighty river unto you.
You think, it’s been good? You think it’s been great? You ain’t seen nothing yet. Being faithful, be faithful in that what you know. Share that which has been given unto you more will come. Even a greater anointing yet.
