SPEAKING IN TONGUES CURES SPIRITUAL WEAKNESS AND FEAR

By Rev.Michael Benson
1 Cor 14:18 NKJV “ I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all; “
           Spiritual weakness  is characterized by fear and instability. Whenever truth is taught, peace is an inevitable outcome. The Word of God is truth (John17:17) and whenever it takes preeminence in our heart, we receive inner peace , gladness ,confidence and stability, the scriptures say in Ps 119:165 NKJV “Great peace have those who love Your law, And nothing causes them to stumble.”  The absence of God’s word is behind family and societal instability. Money and religion cannot take the place of God’s Word in a marriage or family; unfortunately many think otherwise and the result isn’t far-fetched.
     After receiving Christ as lord and saviour , a regular balanced diet of God’s word is necessary for a healthy growth spiritually (1Peter 2:2) The confidence and spiritual energy a person operates in is directly proportional to the amount of revelation knowledge of Christ he or she has received and put to test (2 Peter 3:18)
      The absence of the revealed knowledge of Christ in a person makes them susceptible to deception by religious tricksters. We are admonished in Eph 4:14-15 NKJV “ that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head — Christ”
            Whenever we speak the truth, we experience a transcendental metamorphosis from our low human state into Jesus’ spiritual status .This happens in our spirit through the Holy Ghost. The scripture describes the Holy Ghost as the Spirit of truth (John14:17, 15:26, 16:13) Truth is a personality, He is Jesus Christ who also is the Living word of God (John17:17, John1:14). Truth has its language and distinct from any known language. It is the language spoken by the human irrational subconscious man. That’s why when He speaks through a dream at night; it really doesn’t make sense until interpreted by a person skilled in the language of Truth. The language of the Spirit of Truth is laterally inverted and diametrically opposed to that of human knowledge. For instance, it says, pray for your enemies, and give to receive: this is contrary to human logic.
                When we pray in the language of the spirit (tongues), we shouldn’t expect it to make logical sense because it transcends human logic; it is God’s personal language with which He created the universe. 1 Cor 2:14-15 NKJV” But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned”. It is normal to be mocked when we speak in tongues, however, that shouldn’t deter us because it is the key towards experiencing spiritual revival and miracles anytime.'Tongues' (Greek:Glossa which means an unlearned language ) is a gift of the Holy Spirit for the strengthening of the human spirit.1Cor14:4AMPsays”He who speaks in a [strange] tongue edifies and improves himself..” That’s why Paul was thankful in his proficiency at exercising this gift more than anyone: he achieved more than the early disciples.  It is God’s desire that all men speak in tongues. 1 Cor 14:5 AMP “Now I wish that you might all speak in [unknown] tongues”

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 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....

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 wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
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...
