God 466 – The Benefit of Speaking In Tongues This is session two of the series I'm doing on "Perfect Praise, Prayer, and Worship," which can be found on the website. The link is in the show notes on the Online Classes and Teachings page. 1 Corinthians 14:4 & 5 "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. 5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying." To edify you. 1 Corinthians 14:2 "For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries." To speak to God divine secrets. 1 Corinthians 14:16 & 17 "Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? 17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified." To give thanks well. Romans 8:16 & 17 "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." To have the spirit bear witness with our spirit that you are a joint-heirs with Christ. 1 Corinthians 14:14 & 15 "For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also." To pray perfectly. Romans 8:26 – 28 "Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." To pray perfectly as God wills. Ephesians 3:16 "That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;" To strengthen you with might in your inner man.  Acts 2:11 "Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God." To speak the wonderful works of God. Acts 10:46b "For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God." To magnify God. 1 Corinthians 14:22 "Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe." To be a sign to unbelievers. Mark 16:17 "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;" To be a sign to unbelievers. Isaiah 28:11 & 12 "For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear." To bring rest to your soul. 1 Corinthians 14:21 "In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord." It will bring rest to your soul, just as Isaiah wrote, and yet they will not hear me, saith the Lord. Jude 1:19 & 20 "These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost," To edify you. John 4: 19 – 24 "The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." To have perfect worship that bypasses the five senses that speaking in tongues is perfect worship to God. Perfect praise, prayer, and worship. Until the next time we get together, may God bless you abundantly. Agape, The Teacher: Rev.
