This is what I will do in the last days. The Jews called the last age of time which would begin at the coming of the Messiah, the last days (see Isaiah 2:2).

It includes the idea of predicting the future, but this is only a part of it. Both the men and women in Acts 2:4 were filled with the Spirit, also Philip's four unmarried daughters who had the gift of prophecy (Acts 21:9). Visions. dreams. Such as Peter had at Joppa (Acts 10:9-17) Paul had a dream of special message (Acts 16:9-10).
