Here are the miraculous signs that those who believe will do. In my name they will drive out demons. They will speak in languages they had not known before.

In the law it is written,“ With unfamiliar languages and through the lips of outsiders I will speak to these people. But even then they will not listen to me.”( Isaiah 28:11, 12) That is what the Lord says.So speaking in other languages is a sign for those who don’t believe. It is not a sign for those who do believe. But prophecy is not for those who don’t believe. It is for those who believe.Suppose the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in other languages. And suppose visitors or unbelievers come in. Won’t they say you are out of your minds?

Paul placed his hands on them. Then the Holy Spirit came on them. They spoke in languages they had not known before. They also prophesied.

But the Father will send the Friend in my name to help you. The Friend is the Holy Spirit. He will teach you all things. He will remind you of everything I have said to you.

They heard them speaking in languages they had not known before. They also heard them praising God. Then Peter said,

John baptized with water. But in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”

Suppose I speak in the languages of human beings or of angels. If I don’t have love, I am only a loud gong or a noisy cymbal.

He then breathed on them. He said,“ Receive the Holy Spirit.

Some of the visitors are Jews. Others have accepted the Jewish faith. Also, Cretans and Arabs are here. We hear all these people speaking about God’s wonders in our own languages!”

Love never fails. But prophecy will pass away. Speaking in languages that had not been known before will end. And knowledge will pass away.

Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan River. The Spirit led him into the desert.

Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit. He said to them,“ Rulers and elders of the people!

Saul was also known as Paul. He was filled with the Holy Spirit. He looked straight at Elymas. He said to him,

I will save you,” announces the Lord.Then the Lord reached out his hand. He touched my mouth and spoke to me. He said,“ I have put my words in your mouth.

Then the Lord came down in the cloud. He spoke with Moses. He took some of the power of the Spirit that was on Moses. And he put it on the 70 elders. When the Spirit came on them, they prophesied. But they didn’t do it again.Two men had remained in the camp. Their names were Eldad and Medad. They were listed among the elders. But they didn’t go out to the tent of meeting. In spite of that, the Spirit came on them too. So they prophesied in the camp.A young man ran up to Moses. He said,“ Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”Joshua spoke up. He was the son of Nun. Joshua had been Moses’ helper from the time he was young. He said,“ Moses! Please stop them!”But Moses replied,“ Are you jealous for me? I wish that all the Lord’ s people were prophets. And I wish that the Lord would put his Spirit on them.”

I thank God that I speak in other languages more than all of you do.

Brothers and sisters, what should we say then? When you come together, each of you brings something. You bring a hymn or a teaching or a message from God. You bring a message in another language or explain what was said in that language. Everything must be done to build up the church.No more than two or three people should speak in another language. And they should speak one at a time. Then someone must explain what was said.If there is no one to explain, the person speaking should keep quiet in the church. They can speak to themselves and to God.Only two or three prophets are supposed to speak. Others should decide if what is being said is true.What if a message from God comes to someone else who is sitting there? Then the one who is speaking should stop.Those who prophesy can all take turns. In that way, everyone can be taught and be given hope.Those who prophesy should control their speaking.

I would like all of you to speak in other languages. But I would rather have you prophesy. The person who prophesies is more helpful than those who speak in other languages. But that is not the case if someone explains what was said in the other languages. Then the whole church can be built up.

The Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.”

I will give you words of wisdom. None of your enemies will be able to withstand them or prove them wrong.

At all times, pray by the power of the Spirit. Pray all kinds of prayers. Be watchful, so that you can pray. Always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

May the God who gives hope fill you with great joy. May you have perfect peace as you trust in him. May the power of the Holy Spirit fill you with hope.

John’s father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit. He prophesied,

Prophecy never came simply because a prophet wanted it to. Instead, the Holy Spirit guided the prophets as they spoke. So, although prophets are human, prophecy comes from God.

When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met Saul. Then the Spirit of God came powerfully on him. He prophesied along with them.

Go now to your own people who were brought here as prisoners. Speak to them. Tell them,‘ Here is what the Lord and King says.’ Speak to them whether they listen or not.”

Stephen was full of God’s grace and power. He did great wonders and signs among the people.

First, God has placed apostles in the church. Second, he has placed prophets in the church. Third, he has placed teachers in the church. Then he has given to the church miracles and gifts of healing. He also has given the gift of helping others and the gift of guiding the church. God also has given the gift of speaking in different kinds of languages.Is everyone an apostle? Is everyone a prophet? Is everyone a teacher? Do all work miracles?Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in languages they had not known before? Do all explain what is said in those languages?

But the Lord’ s anger burns inside me. I can no longer hold it in. The Lord says to me,“ Pour out my anger on the children in the street. Pour it out on the young men who are gathered together. Husband and wife alike will be caught in it. So will those who are very old.

“ The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me. I spoke his word with my tongue.

The Spirit of the Lord has filled me with power. He helps me do what is fair. He makes me brave. Now I’m prepared to tell Jacob’s people what they’ve done wrong. I’m ready to tell Israel they’ve sinned.

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you. Then you will tell people about me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria. And you will even tell other people about me from one end of the earth to the other.”

“ Here is the covenant I will make with them,” says the Lord.“ My Spirit is on you and will not leave you. I have put my words in your mouth. They will never leave your mouth. And they will never leave the mouths of your children or their children after them. That will be true for all time to come,” says the Lord.

It was made known to the prophets that they were not serving themselves. Instead, they were serving you when they spoke about the things that you have now heard. Those who have preached the good news to you have told you these things. They have done it with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.

The Lord said to him,“ Who makes human beings able to talk? Who makes them unable to hear or speak? Who makes them able to see? Who makes them blind? It is I, the Lord.Now go. I will help you speak. I will teach you what to say.”
