Question
What is the difference between prophecy and speaking in tongues?

Answer
In asking this question it's apparent you don't exercise the gifts of the Spirit. Both of these are gifts of the Holy Spirit. Prophesy is the ability to hear God and speak forth what He is saying to you. Tongues is a spiritual language, it can be used to pray, it can be used to worship, it can be used to deliver a prophesy, and it can be used in spiritual warfare, it can even be used to communicate.

I suggest you seek the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and then you will understand
