a) We need the gifts of the Holy Spirit to function effectively. They are taught in I Corinthians 12 and are often grouped into three. Dake’s annotated Bible puts them in three natural divisions. As you meditate on the various references, you will understand the gifts and will become poised to manifest them as the Spirit gives utterance. Today, we shall meditate on the Vocal Inspiration Gifts. Please go through the references to understand the working of these gifts in both the Old and New Testaments.

Gifts of vocal inspiration.
1) Prophecy. This is supernatural utterance in the native tongue ( 1 Corinthians 14:3). It is a miracle of divine utterance not conceived by human thought or reasoning. (Act 3:21; 11:28; 21:11; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Corinthians 14:23-32). It includes speaking unto men to edification and exhortation and comfort (1 Corinthians 14:3).
2) Divers kinds of tongues. This is supernatural utterance in other languages which are unknown to the speaker (Isaiah 28:11; Mark 16:17; Acts 2:4; 10:44-48; 19:1-7; 1 Corinthians 12:10, 28-31; 13:1-3; 14:2, 4-22, 26, 27-32)
3) Interpretation of tongues. This is simply supernatural ability to interpret in the native tongue what is uttered in other languages unknown by the one who interprets by the spirit (1 Corinthians 12:10; 14:5, 13-15, 27-28).

3. God has delivered me from the power of darkness and has translated me into the kingdom of His dear son (Col. 1:13); I am redeemed by the blood of Jesus and my sins are forgiven (Col. 1:14); Hallelujah, I am the righteousness of God in Christ and I am a partaker of His divine nature (2 Pet. 1:4). Because Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law, I am free from sin, sickness and poverty. (Galatians 3: 13)

4) I was dead in trespasses and sins; walking according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, but God has raised me up and made me to sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward me through Christ Jesus.
