"12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:" 1 Corinthians, King James Version, KJV.

Everyone who is a Believer in Christ has his spiritual gift(s). Each of the gifts given to God's people is useful for the good of the body of Christ, including the receiver of the gifts.

God's people should not be ignorant of spiritual gifts. They should know that each gift has its uses and benefits.

One of the not-so-celebrated gifts is the gift of interpretation of tongues. Many people of God do not even appreciate it. This in essence erodes the honor to be given to brethren who are blessed with such great gifts. To God be the glory, they are recognized and celebrated by the Lord His Angels.

This has caused many who are blessed with such a gift to covet other spiritual gifts. Yet, God knows why He does everything, including the dividing of spiritual gifts through the Holy Spirit.

Beloved, are you blessed with this gift of interpretation of tongues, stay on it and use it for the glory of God. It is a valuable gift needed by the body of Christ. May you not be found useless in the vineyard of God in Jesus' name. Value your gift of interpretation. You are given, like any other gifts to profit the body of Christ and your generation at large.

Like any other gifts, interpretations have "differences of administrations" and "diversities of operations", but it is the same God who works all in all. 1 Corinthians 12:4-6.

Therefore, be filled with the Spirit of God and use your Spiritual gifts for the benefit of the body of Christ and your generation at large. Do not allow anyone to discourage you from using your God-given gift of interpretation.

Please, beloved Pilgrim, if you are not one of the Believers in Christ, it is never too late. Confess Him as your Lord and Savior after confessing and forsaking your sins, He will accept you. Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
