Speaking in Tongues and Its Benefits

As I minister around the world I see a resurgence within the Body of Christ for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. God’s people from all denominations, whether pastors and other leaders or the people within the congregations, there is a cry for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. This is a definite move of God, as the altars are full of people desiring to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. Men, women, youth, and children are activating their faith and are receiving this precious power from above. Grown men and intellectuals that have struggled for years with receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit are receiving instantly and weeping for joy as they begin to speak in tongues.

Speaking in tongues is the beginning step to being baptized in the Holy Spirit, and is for every born-again believer. Luke 5: 37-38 says, “No one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.” When you become born-again, your spirit becomes eternally alive and Heaven bound with Jesus. Concerning the gift of tongues, it is given to all believers who believe and activate their faith to receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit Peter said to them in Acts 2:38-39, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” Speaking in tongues is for all believers, from the time of the early Church on the Day of Pentecost to today with ourselves and to our children and to our grandchildren and to their children … until the day of the Lord’s return.

Speaking in tongues is the initial evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, “And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Acts 2:4. And your supernatural language from God is the evidence that you have received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. And is the beginning of your journey into the supernatural realm with the Holy Spirit.

Now, when being baptized in the Holy Spirit you must activate your faith as with any other promise of God. The Holy Spirit will not force you to open up your mouth and speak. You must cooperate with Him, open up your mouth, move your tongue and give voice to the words springing up from within your spirit. And that’s how you activate your faith to be baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues.

We are to speak in tongues when we pray. Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 14:18, “I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all.” How often do you speak in tongues? You should speak in tongues daily, and often throughout your day. Praying in tongues opens up this miraculous realm for you.

This amazing spiritual gift of speaking in tongues has powerful benefits for you.

1. Endued with Power. “Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.” Luke 24:49. This power gives you the ability to take the kingdom of God, and His promises by force and activate power to those all around. You see your enemy, satan does not want you to manifest God’s promises in your life. He battles hard against you to keep you from walking in victory. But as you learn to activate the gift of tongues when you pray you cause this enemy to loosen his grip and your miracle manifests.
2. Speak Mysteries. First Corinthians 14:2 describes these mysteries for us. “For he who speaks in an unknown tongue does not speak to men, but to God. For no one understands him, although in the spirit, he speaks mysteries.” This word mysteries (Strong’s G3466 – mystērion) means hidden thing, secret or mystery. When you speak in tongues you speak into existence the hidden or secret things God has planned for you. I have seen this principle work time and time again in my life and ministry.
3. Encourage Yourself. Paul admonishes us in first Corinthians 14:4 that “He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.” Speaking in tongues launches you outside of the realm of depression and into the realm of joy.
4. Magnify God. Cor­nelius and his household began to speak with tongues, and magnify God. Acts 10:46 “For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.” I tell you the truth that if we would begin to speak with tongues it would prevent us from magnifying the wrong things, such as the works of satan, including sickness and disease, and we would all be a whole lot better for it. Begin to speak with tongues and magnify God.

This is an amazing revival of the Spirit of God, and as God’s people begin to speak in tongues not only do they themselves change, but entire families, congregations, communities, businesses and ministries transform as well. Don’t miss out on what the Holy Spirit has for you, be baptized in the Holy Spirit, speak with heavenly tongues, and release its benefits to those around you.
