Bible Question: revpete79 please tell me how I receive the gift of speaking in tongues. I believe this and I want all that Jesus has to give to help me with my walk with Him |
Bible Answer: The gift of being baptized in the Holy Spirit is waht you are seeking. Speaking in tongues is a by product that acts as the initial physical evidence that you have received from God what you are asking for. This evidence in not as important as it is that your life changes in that you will have the Holy spirit pray for or through you in ways that will enrich you life as he speaks mysteries to God. Also you should have a greater desire to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with your world. Simply open yourself to the moving of the Holy Spirit in your life and begin to praise the Lord out loud with your voice in english. As you sense the Spirit of God putting sylables and words in you mind say them. Do not fear that while you are praising God The devil will slip in and give you false words because he doesn't like to be around true worship of God. Ask Jesus to baptize you for he is our baptizer and believe and you will receive. May God's Blessings be upon you as you seek to grow in your faith and knowledge of Him. I'll be praying for you!
