The Power Of Tongues – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional February 6th

(Praying With Your Spirit)

TO THE BIBLE: Jude 1:20
“But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit”

LET’S TALK
In our opening scripture, we’re instructed to pray through the power of the Holy Spirit. But in 1 Corinthians 14:14, Paul explains, “For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.”

This refers to praying with your spirit, speaking in tongues, as a means of engaging with God on a deeper, spiritual level.

Then in Romans 8:26, we see another dimension of praying in the Spirit: “Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.”

This is not speaking in tongues. It is the Holy Ghost interceding for us with groanings, deep, heartfelt expressions that words can’t articulate.

Have you experienced moments when words fail, and instead, your spirit is burdened with groanings and deep sighs?

These are times when the Holy Ghost takes over, interceding in your behalf. When this happens, continue in prayer until you have a release in your spirit.

This kind of prayer is so powerful. It allows the Holy Ghost to address situations beyond your understanding; it’s a divine strategy for living an ever-victorious life in Christ.

Additionally, as you pray in tongues, the Bible says you can ask for the gift of interpretation. This doesn’t mean translating what you prayed but receiving insight into what you’re praying about.

However, when the Holy Ghost prays through you in groanings, you may not always know the details unless He reveals them to you.

The power and the effect when the Spirit prays through us like that are incontrovertible; we invoke the power and dominion of heaven on earth, manifesting divine realities. This is one of the reasons you should love and enjoy praying.

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for the gift of the Spirit who helps me pray beyond my understanding. As I pray in tongues and through the power of the Holy Ghost, every limitation is removed, and I walk in continuous victory. Thank you for this divine strategy to live a life that is upward and forward only, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
