*BENEFITS OF PRAYING IN OTHER TONGUES* (IV)
_Key Bible Text:_
*“But you, dear friends, carefully build yourselves up in this most holy faith by praying in the Holy Spiritâ€* (Jude 1:20 (The Message))
_Bible Insight:_
3) Praying in tongues edifies you:
“He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself…†(1 Coritnians 14:4)
Another important benefit of praying in tongues is that it brings forth spiritual edification. Man doesn’t have a spirit. Man is a spirit. The Holy Spirit resides in your spirit and edifies you from within. The word ‘edify‘ means to improve, build up (like building a house), strengthen, encourage, activate or stir up. It also means to charge. So, in the light of the above, speaking or praying in tongues:
-improves your life.
-builds you up like an edifice.
-strengthens you spiritually.
-encourages you by encouraging or enhancing the workings of the Holy Spirit in your life.
-stirs up or activates your inherent gifting and potentials.
-charges you up.
No wonder Paul, writing to Timothy, charged him to “fan into flame (stir up) the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands†(2Tim. 1:6). The way to do this is by praying in the Holy Ghost.
Apostle Jude also validated this spiritual principle by saying, “…beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit†(Jude 1:20AMP).
We encourage the ministry of the Holy Spirit and activate our spirits for greater works of the Holy Spirit by praying in tongues.
_MEDITATION:_
*“Beloved, the promise and ministry of the Holy Spirit “belongs to you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the LORD our God shall call†(Acts 2:39). Jesus became curse for you by hanging on the cross so that you “might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith†(Gal. 3:14). Do you believe it?â€*
