*DAILY DEW 6/NOVEMBER/2023* *TONGUES* (XI) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?"* (Acts 2: 7,8 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ *"...Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?"* When you look at the list of tribes here represented you will realize that this was the entire known world at the time. God was reclaiming the nations of the earth who turned from him at Babel by the gospel. These Jews after salvation were to return to these gentile nations where they were based and take the gospel message with them. Now after they were saved, they stayed a while following the apostles doctrine so as to grow spiritually, but persecution later scattered them and they went back to their own place of domicile among the gentile nations. Not only them but also many Jews who lived and where born in Jerusalem. Acts 2 was a prophetic sign and a fulfillment of a prophecy. God used the language of foreign nations to witness to the entire nation of Israel about their redemption but not all listened. It is a witness against those who despite that manifestation in Jerusalem still didn’t believe. Other tongues are a sign to the unbelieving Jews to draw them close while prophesy serves to believers as a means of edification. So biblical tongues can either be new tongues or other tongues. Whichever it will be in manifestation is as the spirit wills not as we will but both are within the capacities of the Holyghost resident in the believer. _MEDITATION:_ *And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.* (Acts 8:1) *#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.
