*DAILY DEW 5/NOVEMBER/2023* *TONGUES* (X) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God!."* (Acts 2:4, 11 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Now you will see the intelligence of the spirit in manifesting other tongues in Acts 2 as it fulfills an Old Testament prophecy and was a sign to the unbelieving Jews In Jerusalem who came for the feast. They heard the gospel In other languages alien to their native Jewish tongue showing that God was taken the gospel beyond the shores of Israel and that the gospel will eventually be preached by citizens of those nations to the Jews! Take a look at 1 Corinthians 14:22. And you will agree that tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. Acts 2 was a sign to the Jewish nation. God was saying again by His spirit what he had said before in the law. Only difference was now He was Inspiring believers to prophesy to unbelieving Jews in foreign languages which they spoke having lived and grown up in those gentile nations. In fact it was their testimony to other Jews present that these “Galileans” were speaking the languages of gentiles to them preaching about the marvelous works of God. _MEDITATION:_ *Mark 16:17 (KJV) And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;* *#Olaleye_Oluwafemi* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_NOVEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 3/NOVEMBER/2023* *TONGUES* (VIII) _Key Bible Text:_ *"In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord."* (1 Corinthians 14:21 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Previously we established that there are three adjectival prefixes used where tongues where concerned. They are: 1. NEW TONGUES - "New" being from the Greek “kainos” which speaks to a language unknown to the speaker and his audience. A language known only to God whose meaning can be gotten only by the gift of interpretation 1Cor 14:4-8 2. OTHER TONGUES - This speaks to languages spoken that is unknown to the speaker but known to the audience. The person speaking does so by supernatural ability but the audience hear it naturally. No interpretation is needed for the audience as they hear in their understanding what is being uttered. Acts 2:1-4 3. KINDS OF TONGUES - This is the umbrella description for both kinds of tongues spoken of in 1 Cor 12:4-8. It speaks of other tongues and new tongues. Remember we explained that the KJV translation of “unknown" tongues has the prefix in italics. This means it wasn’t in the original Greek but the translators understood that in context this TONGUES was not earthly as no man understood it +1 Cor 14:4) hence the better prefix would be unknown. We saw that Unknown Tongues are actually New Tongues. _MEDITATION:_ *Acts 2:4, 11 (KJV) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.!"* *Mark 16:17 (KJV) And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;* *#Olaleye_Oluwafemi* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_NOVEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 2/NOVEMBER/2023* *TONGUES* (VII) _Key Bible Text:_ *"Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy."* (1 Cor 14:1) _Bible Insight:_ Paul is basically saying that DESIRE is all a man with the spirit needs to manifest a spiritual gift. As a result he is exhorting us to desire spiritual gifts and stresses prophecy as he states it brings the most edification in a local church context. Now if all were limited to some gifts, he would not say this at all! He then goes on to state that he wants all to speak In tongues or even better prophesy! *"I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying."* (1 Cor 14:5) So to answer our question. Do all speak with tongues? The answer is NO! But can all speak with tongues? Every believer? The answer is yes! Should they earnestly desire to! For if they have the Holyghost and all gifts are in him then every manifestation is a possibility should they desire it! I hope this helped? _MEDITATION:_ *All gifts are in the Holy Ghost and you have the Holy Ghost. Therefore, every manifestation is a possibility if only you desire it!"* *#Olaleye_Oluwafemi* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_NOVEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 1/NOVEMBER/2023* *TONGUES* (VI) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ."* (Ephesians 4:11-12) _Bible Insight:_ What exactly does Paul mean by the statement/question-- “Do all speak in tongues?" The context of this Chapter is the body of Christ. The breakdown above is speaking to functions. Hence, he begins with apostles, prophets, teachers which are ministry gifts then miracles, gifts of healings, tongues and interpretation which are spiritual gifts. So the clear answer here will be "No". In the body of Christ, all do not have the function in the body to be apostles, prophets, workers of miracles and speakers of tongues. Don’t miss this . All do not have the same function! This is because Paul is speaking clearly as regards MINISTRY. For when we see Paul speak functionally about the body of Christ he refers to ministry function. *"And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone"* (Eph 2:20) All don’t have the same function ministerially but note this. Everyone can manifest spiritual gifts if they DESIRE IT. *"But covet earnestly the best gifts."* 1 Cor 12:31 _MEDITATION:_ *Everyone can manifest spiritual gifts if they DESIRE IT."* *#Olaleye_Oluwafemi* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_NOVEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
