Subject: Joann ... Why not use your gift ? |
Bible Note: Scripture ... Rom 8:26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. Joann, You said "It is the Spirit praying through us" But I see since "the Spirit Himself intercedes for us" ... "He intercedes for the saints", that is we pray, then He intercedes for us (saints). That means He is the one before the Father with our prayers. It is not that He prays and we take action. Christ also intercedes for us (Rom 8:34, Heb 7:25). Your mind is unfruitful when praying in tongues, because your mind is not use in the process and there is no benefit. Searcher |
