Why Tongues?

Marvellous Mystery

Why would anybody want to speak in tongues?

Did you ever wonder why anyone would want to speak in tongues?  When you think of it, it’s pretty strange, even weird.  You don’t even know what you’re saying!  Yet there are some amazing benefits to this gift! 

It’s definitely not to be underestimated!

More is better?

According to the Apostle Paul, there is value in the quantity of time and amount that we speak in tongues.  He was glad he spoke in tongues more than others!  How much do you value your prayer language? 

You may take a daily multivitamin, but do you pray in tongues daily?  What might you be missing from your spiritual diet?

    My prayer language is important to me and i sincerly value my quite time with God.

    Spiritual growth is a function of the Holy Spirit.

    The Holy Spirit is a sustainer, empowers, builds, completes and perfects everything in our lives through God, in Jesus name.

    I value my prayer language in a sort of “unlimited potential” type of way. I see it as akin to a carrot dangling in front of a horse’s snout, or a piece of candy given to a child after a checkup… something to strive towards, something that inspires me and gives me hope. Because I have yet to actually be baptized in the Spirit, I don’t really have a present tense answer to this question.

    I would like to grow in this gift in basically every way possible. I want to conquer my skepticism, I want to speak in tongues for the first time, I want to grow closer to the Lord through that type of linguistic intimacy, and I want to be able to use this gift to not only deepen my prayer life, but to empower those around me through prayer.
