EXTRAORDINARY REASONS TO PRAY IN TONGUES (PT 2)

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi
It is a source of personal edification: “He that speaks in an unknown tongue edify himself” (1st Cor. 14:4). It is from the “edify” that we derive our word “edifice” in construction work . its the Greek word oikodomeo  which means to be a house-builder, i.e. construct or confirm, embolden. It's the cure to shyness and timidity which are a  hindrance to  marriages and businesses.  
Whenever we speak in tongues though the words given to our irrational subconscious being, we are building ourselves spiritually like a body builder lifts weight in the gymnasium .The mysterious words that we speak carries weight.
 It's a generator of desirable emotions . The baptism in the spirit is not is not an emotional experience, it’s a spiritual one driven by faith which is emotional, volitional and emotional ,the scriptures says “… my soul wait for the lord” Ps.62:1. Our emotions are energized by the prompting of the holy ghost. He brings out the feminine part of woman and the romantic side of a man which were hitherto suppressed due to years of abuse . It is normal to feel that way. Emotional expressions are a sine qua non to good health and through  the Spirit within us, we can be sure to achieve the healthiest and purest emotional expressions attainable .Married couples filled with the Holy Spirit who  habitually and jointly manifest their Holy Spirit inspired emotions through speaking in tongues  results in a marriage full of excitement, peace that transcends human comprehension and joy inexplicable. They eventually  become best of friends. The bond of marriage is sustained by the ethereal elements of faith, hope, love,long-suffering, gentleness, peace, goodness,meekness,joy all of which are emotions generated through speaking in tongues.
    We offer acceptably worship to God .  Sometimes we get overwhelmed with the inexplicable emotions of gratitude towards  God for his acts of kindness . At such time human words appears grossly inadequate to express our gratitude to God thus, speaking in tongues serves as a fulfilling medium to give God thanks. Paul says “ we can give thanks well”(1st Cor.14:17) by speaking in the language he gives. This is the highest form  of praise worship, this is how we minister to God in the spirit (Acts13:2)
    Receive an undeniable manifestation of the power of the Holy Ghost as your read this now in Jesus name

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
