 For he that speaks in an unknown tongues speaks not unto men, but unto God; for no man understands him; howbeit in the spirit he speaks mysteries, …. For if I pray in tongues, My spirit prays ………………. I Cor. 14: 2 , 14.

There is something special about tongues (praying with you spirit). Praying in tongues is an avenue to receive revelation and words of knowledge from God.  The language of the Holy Spirit is created through the help of the Holy Spirit that dwells in believers. Tongues just not occur by merely saying words not comprehensible by men but it is created by the Holy Spirit that dwells in the inside of a regenerated soul.

CONDITION FOR SPEAKING IN TONGUES

Firstly there is no special condition for speaking in tongues other than being regenerated by the Holy Spirit of God. You must being born again, i.e you must be regenerated by God. Your spirit must be regenerated to access the Holy Spirit and allow Him to lead.

Secondly, you must be baptize with the Holy Ghost baptism. Jesus is the one that baptize people i.e believers with the Holy Ghost “And I knew Him not, but He that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, the same is He that which baptize with the Holy Ghost. John 1:33”. Just the way we receive salvation through Him, through Him also we receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, is speaking in tongues. The first disciple of Jesus experience this on the day of Pentecost Acts 2:1-4.

EXERCISING DOMINION THROUGH SPEAKING IN TONGUES

God asked Job a mysterious question that Job could not answer a word, because the question look mysterious to him. God asked job if he had command the morning since his existence on earth. “hath thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the daysprings to know his place; That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it Job 38:12-13”.  God was trying to reveal something mysterious to Job but he could not comprehend God, and God also said “Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? Canst thou set the dominion therefore in the earth Job 38:33” God was revealing some principles to Job, if Job could comprehend it, he will be able to exercise dominion on earth. In heaven there are principles or ordinances that governs everything that exist. Knowing those ordinances will enable believers to exercise dominion on earth. God wants to teach believers these ordinances, and one way of doing this ,is through speaking in tongues. “Whom shall he teach knowledge? And whom shall he make to understand doctrine? They that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breast. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little and there a little. For with stammering lips and another tongue (speaking in tongue) will he speak to this people Ish. 28:9-11”

For it is the spirit that knows these ordinances  and He wants to pass it to believers through speaking in tongues “And he that search the heart knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God Romans 8:27” How, through tongues! “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saint. And for me, that utterance may be given to unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mysteries of the Gospel… Eph. 6: 18-19.” Apostle Paul demanded that the saints should pray for him in the spirit (speaking in tongues for him) that he may receive utterances (ordinances, principles , doctrine , the mysteries of the Gospel) from God. No wonder he admonished the believers to always pray with their spirits.

I want to see you exercising your dominion today by speaking in tongues concerning your days on earth.
