Tongues Are NOT of The Devil, Don’t Believe That Lie From The Pit of Hell!
To receive the gift of the Holy Spirit we must be forgiven of our sins. He, the Holy Spirit, can’t dwell in a dead dirty spirit. Before we were born again christians, we (our human spirits), were dead to God. The sin nature was in every person since Adam and Eve dropped the ball in the garden. Since Jesus made a way to restore mankind back to God, we can have a clean spirit that is alive to God. Once we receive Jesus as Lord and Savior of our lives, we can ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit. The gift is simply a deeper dimension of God. It is expressed, and the power of it is released by speaking in an unknown tongue (the language of the Angels). The purpose of this speaking in tongues is to pray back to God His perfect prayer from us to Him. Our minds won’t understand and it can sound like gibberish coming out of our mouth. Allow no one to discourage you from getting hold of this gift. Understanding what it is before you go after it, so you can be comfortable about it. Read the beginning chapters of the book of Acts in the Bible (Acts 2:1-12). It is a vital gift from the Lord that is essential for our furtherance in Christ. We build up our most holy faith by praying in the spirit, or in tongues (Jude 1:20). It energizes our human spirits to have faith in the promises of God more easily. We also prepare our pathway in life to become more smoothly by praying in tongues regularly. It’s more of God in your life, either you want it, or you don’t. You can listen to unbelieving, ignorant people concerning this, or you can obey God by trusting it’s a vital part to your arsenal against your enemies.
