No comedy skit is as sweet as the bible. Palm wine is a learner in the business of intoxicating compared with the words of the bible. Papa Ajasco and Mr Ibu are learning comedy when it comes to comparing them with the God and Jesus of the bible grin

David0002:
I really thank God for giving me the gift of speaking in tongues, ever since then, my prayer life has changed. Now I can pray for 3 hours, 4 hours without getting tired.

I still remember 31st of may, 2024. It is a day I will never forget. I didn't even dream that I will ever speak in tongues, I never prayed about it, infact I was not expecting it.

Let me tell you you truth, initially, I hated the idea of praying in tongues, I thought it was not possible, I thought it was scam, I thought that people were just speaking anything that comes out of their mouth. It was because I have prayed earnestly for it before that God should give me this gift and enable me to pray in tongues, but I didn't see it forth-coming. I prayed seriously for it, read books that dealth on Holy Ghost baptism, exercised my faith, opened my mouth for God to fill it, yet nothing happened, so I gave up the idea and stopped praying about it. But little did I know that God heard the prayer and was waiting for the appointed time to bring it to manifestation.

On that day, I was hungry to just praise and worship God and nothing more. Once it was 4.pm in the evening, I started with praise. I praised God for a very long time.

After I was true with praise, I entered into deep worship song. I worship God with songs with all my heart for a very long time.

When I was true with worshipping God with songs, I entered into a prayer of praise and. I began to call God sweet names, I was calling Him by His attributes praising and and worshipping Him. Then I became tired. I decided to sit down because I have been standing for over one hour.

As I sat down, I felt a sensation in my body, from that moment, I knew in my spirit that something was about to happen, and it happened.

Immediately something began to move from my body, immediately, it came to my mouth. Before I knew it, my mouth opened, I started to speak in tongues or pray in tongues. It was so powerful. It was like rivers of living water flowing out of my belly.

For almost 45 minutes, I was praying in tongues as the Holy Spirit gave me utterance. It was so great. It was lovely. It was so much that it didn't want to stop. It was like borehole water that doesn't finish, infact I have to force myself to stop it.

After that encounter, my prayer life has never remained the same. I can now pray for longer hours like 3 hours, 4 hours without getting tired. Before I received the gift of tongues, I could only pray for 30 minutes to 1 hour before getting tired or running out of words.

It has reached to the extent of whenever I want to pray but don't know what to pray, I will pray a simple prayer and tell God that I want to pray in tongues that the Holy Spirit should possess my lips, and that the Holy Spirit should pray through me. Immediately, my lips will open and I will start praying in tongues. God is alive, and He answers prayer. My prayer life have changed since then. Infact I am addicted to prayer. It is burning inside of me. Any day that passes without me praying is like I want to die. I can't survive without prayer.

My fellow pastor, evangelist, brother, sister, desire this gift of praying in tongues. It is more powerful and effective than praying with your understanding. By praying in tongues, you don't know what you are praying. But in the spirit, you are speaking mysteries. As you are praying in tongues, God can use your prayer and heal someone in China. Your prayer can travel to India, Japan, U.S.A, London, even to your village etc and lose someone in bondage.

I plead with you, desire this gift more than anything else. Remember, prayer is a powerful weapon. With it, you can touch anybody around the world right on your knees.

Good morning and have a pleasant day.

Happy Sunday.

Congratulations!, Speaking of tongue is good and encouraging but learn how to pray in an understanding language using the biblical text as Jesus do in Matthew 4: 1-11 as this won't make you a lazy Christian when praying, most of the people that pray in tongue for hours are often become lazy in prayers.

Speaking in tongues means speaking in known languages.
I don't know of what relevance it is to one's spiritual life.

David0002:


In the bible, speaking in tongues started on the day of pentecost, when the disciples of Jesus or the apostles were baptized with the Holy Ghost. They were speaking in the other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. You can find it in Acts chapter 2. Read it yourself.
The apostles praised God in different languages that the people present at the time understood.
How many people understand what you say when you speak in tongues?
And you use three to four hours to talk to God?
Is it the same God I know or another one that has hearing problems?

Do you mean Aisha was giving out to marriage when she was 6 and Mohammed had carnal knowledge with her when she was 9?

.

You are right: The part you have not explained is that part where the people around heard them speak in their own native tongue.

Act 2: 7 Astounded and amazed, they asked, “Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? 8 How is it then that each of us hears them in his own native language? 9 Parthians, Medes, and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia

The people of Parthians, Medes, Elamites etc heard them speak in their native tongues.

What it means is, supposing you are Yoruba speaking praying, and suddenly you are able to pray in Igbo, Ghanaian Ewe language, Egun language (badagry) etc, language that you have no previous understanding of.

That was the pure incident that happened in Act 2, it is not a reference to the type of speaking in tongue seen in Nigeria. However, i have once seen a real speaking in tongue, where a known Minister (stack illiterate) in the early 90s was asked by God to go and minister in the East. He was afraid at first but eventually he summoned courage and went with a team of brothers hoping one of them would be an interpreter. As God would have it, as he opened his mouth to start ministering, he spoke in fluent Igbo language until he finished delivering his message. Afterwards, they approached him thinking he was an Igbo pastor, but he could not even say a normal greeting in Igbo. Not that he could speak English or pidgin fluently, he was a stack illiterate.

Act 2: 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome, 11both Jews and converts to Judaism; Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”

Of course we have read it. Did u take note that the languages were mentioned there to be languages of other people? Those other people understood what they were saying. This is the standard of what speaking in tongues mean. Was your's that way? I greatly doubt
