They are how we partner with the Spirit when human language fails. This gift builds you up when the world tears you down. It connects your spirit directly to God’s will. Don’t neglect it. Don’t fear it. Ask in faith, yield in obedience, and experience the power that comes when the Holy Spirit prays through you.⸻Stay ConnectedFind all ministry links, bonus teachings, and updates in the Linktree in the show notes.Follow and engage: @AwakenedBibleMinistrieshttps://linktr.ee/AwakenedBibleMinistries⸻Support the MissionPartner with Awakened to Deliver to reach more people with the Gospel.
