Episode Synopsis
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13:5-826 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. 27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers[l] in harmony with God’s own will. 28 And we know that God causes everything to work together[m] for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. ROMANS 8:26-28SAME SPIRITRejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-18Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. ROMANS 8:26But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.JOHN 14:2WE ARE TRYING TO DO A GOD-SIZED JOB WITHOUT GOD-SIZED TOOLS. Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts (or tools), especially that you may prophesy. For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:1-2For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:1-2MYTH 01. YOU ARE FLUENT FROM THE STARTMYTH 02. YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL 14 For if I pray in tongues, my spirit is praying, but I don’t understand what I am saying.1 CORINTHIANS 14:14MYTH 03. YOU WIILL GET A DEMON11 If a son asks for [e]bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”LUKE 11:11-13MYTH 04. SOME PEOPLE HAVE IT AND SOME PEOPLE DON’T 5 Now I want you all to speak in tongues,1 CORINTHIANS 14:5Why did Paul wish you all spoke with tongues? No doubt, because he knew the value of it in his own life. Paul was able, when in the spirit he spoke mysteries, to unburden his soul before God in a way beyond human language and intellect. He could pray, praise, and intercede beyond his ability to understand and articulate. Paul wanted every Christian to know this same blessing.GUZIKWHEN WE PRAY IN THE SPIRIT, WE ARE BUILT UP4 The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, 1 CORINTHIANS 14:1-210 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. EPHESIANS 6:10-18 WHEN WE PRAY IN THE SPIRIT, WE ARE UNIFIED At one time all the people of the world spoke the same language and used the same words. 2 As the people migrated to the east, they found a plain in the land of Babylonia[a] and settled there.3 They began saying to each other, “Let’s make bricks and harden them with fire.” (In this region bricks were used instead of stone, and tar was used for mortar.) 4 Then they said, “Come, let’s build a great city for ourselves with a tower that reaches into the sky. This will make us famous and keep us from being scattered all over the world.”5 But the Lord came down to look at the city and the tower the people were building. 6 “Look!” he said. “The people are united, and they all speak the same language. After this, nothing they set out to do will be impossible for them! 7 Come, let’s go down and confuse the people with different languages. Then they won’t be able to understand each other.”GENESIS 11:6(ONE, Unified in vision, community, language) “For at that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech,that all of them may call upon the name of the Lord and serve him with one accord.ZEPHANIAH 3:9 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested[a] on each one of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.ACTS 2:1-4WHEN WE PRAY IN THE SPIRIT, WE PRAY PERFECT PRAYERS You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.,JAMES 4:327 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers[l] in harmony with God’s own will.
