PRAYER ON A NEW DIMENSION !

PRAYER ON A NEW DIMENSION: As We Pray in the Spirit, Because The Word Is Spirit And Truth, Our Spirit Is Not Bound by Human limitations. Some people ask, "what is the use of speaking with tongues ?" There also are those who have been filled with the Holy Spirit and have spoken in tongues but see no reason to continue to speak in tongues in their daily prayer life. There are those also who spend very little time in the Word of God to learn about what God's Word says about prayer. Evidently God thought that speaking in tongues is very important, because He inspired the apostle Paul to devote an entire chapter in the Bible -- (1 Corinthians 14) -- to the subject. Although all will agree on the utmost importance of prayer, however, many deer people do not know how to form an accurate prayer based on the promises of the Scriptures. Where in the Bible can we find an entire chapter on prayer ? The paying of tithes and offerings is another important subject; we could not carry on the work of God without money but where in the Word of God do we see an entire chapter given to the subject ? Water baptism also is important. But again we do not find an entire chapter devoted to the subject. What I am saying is that God does not put unnecessary things in His Word. He has not filled the Bible with unimportant subjects. Therefore the teaching of the subject of speaking in tongues or praying the Scriptures are vital and necessary to every successful believer. Jesus said in (John 15:7). "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you. In this is my Father glorify, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciple." SPEAKING SECRETS TO GOD ! (1 Corinthians 14:2 through 18). "For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself. . . I think my God, I speak with tongues more than you all." In verse two, when Paul said, "for he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God," he was not referring to ministering in tongues in a public assembly; he was talking about a Spirit-filled believer talking in tongues in his or her private prayer life. This also includes praying in tongues doing prayer services at the altar in an assembly because we go there to talk to God. Paul continued, " . . . Howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries." Mofftt's translation of this verse says, ". . . He is talking of divine secrets in the Spirit." God has devised a way whereby we may speak to Him supernaturally ! In the Spirit, we speak divine secrets to God !
