Praying in the Spirit =
Praying in tongues

(Eph. 6:18-20, Jude 1:17-20, 1 Corinthians 14:13-15)

Every time we see the phrase “pray in the Spirit, ” the gift of (personal) tongues (not to be confused with the gift used in public worship [i.e. tongues and interpretation as mentioned in 1 Cor. 14) is referenced.

In fact, Romans 8:26-27, explicitly says “when we don’t know what to pray, the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with groaning too deep for words.”

I know tongues is weird (super-natural), and in most Christian circles we’ve discredited the practice out of witnessing ridiculous misuse/abuse and by over-intellectualizing our faith, but Jesus promises to baptize his followers with the Holy Spirit/power/fire (Luke 3:16, Acts 1:8, Acts 2:4).

This is a gift from God. I urge you, do not SEEK the gift (tongues), SEEK the GIFTER.

Although, you who are evil, no how to give good gifts how much more will the Father give the HOLY SPIRIT to those who ask him?

It has been one of the greatest blessings of my life! I pray you open your heart and your mind as you prayerfully walk through God’s word!

Correction: The Spirit intercedes for us, for we do not know what to pray for. Praying in the Spirit is praying in Tongues.
