Awakened to Deliver – The Gift of Interpretation of TonguesWeek 32, Day 2: Guarding the Purity of the GiftKey Verse: 1 John 4:1 (NASB 2020)“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.”⸻Episode Highlights• Every genuine gift of God faces the enemy’s attempts to counterfeit or corrupt it.• Not every claimed interpretation comes from the Holy Spirit—believers must “test the spirits.”• The Spirit will never give a message that contradicts Scripture or distorts Christ’s character.• Accuracy of content is not enough—the source must be the Spirit of God.• Silence when no interpretation is given is not failure—it’s obedience to Scripture.• Accountability among mature believers helps safeguard the gift from misuse.• Purity in this gift begins in the secret place through prayer, Scripture, and humility.• The goal is not to be “the one with the word,” but to be a faithful vessel for God’s message.• Faithfulness means delivering only what the Spirit gives—nothing more, nothing less.⸻Scriptures to Reflect On• 1 John 4:1 – Test the spirits to see if they are from God.• 1 Corinthians 14:28 – Remain silent if there is no interpreter.• 1 Corinthians 14:29 – Let others weigh the message.• Deuteronomy 18:20–22 – God’s warning about speaking presumptuously in His name.• John 16:14 – The Spirit glorifies Christ.• 1 Corinthians 14:26 – All things must be done for edification.• Jeremiah 23:16 – False prophets speak visions from their own minds.• Acts 16:16–18 – Paul discerns and rebukes a counterfeit spirit.⸻Takeaway ThoughtThe gift of interpretation is holy, and God calls us to guard it with the utmost care. Purity is preserved when we know His Word, listen for His voice, and refuse to speak from pressure, pride, or presumption. When we protect the gift from misuse, the Church remains a place where God’s voice is heard clearly, His people are built up, and His name is honored.⸻Stay ConnectedFind all ministry links, bonus teachings, and updates in the Linktree in the show notes.Follow and engage: @AwakenedBibleMinistrieshttps://linktr.ee/AwakenedBibleMinistries⸻Support the MissionPartner with Awakened to Deliver to reach more people with the Gospel.
