Praying in the Spirit

Praying in the Spirit

In experimental Christianity, you find something in the Bible, then you ask God to teach you how to walk in the reality of it—to walk by faith. Early on, I was confronted with the gift of tongues described in the Bible.

I give a little history of this gift, and explain why I don’t teach that “tongues is the initial evidence of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer,” as some believe. Why then does God give this gift? The most basic reasons: to edify us, and to help us pray when we don’t know how we ought to pray for a specific situation. I finish by describing the ABC’s of faith, and how to apply these steps to the gift of tongues.
