3 PURPOSES OF PERSONAL UNKNOWN TONGUES

There are three main purposes for speaking with our Personal Unknown Tongues.SPEAKING MYSTERIES BACK TO GOD1 Corinthians 14:2 (NKJV)�2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.Personal Unknown Tongues enable us to establish a direct line of communication with the Heavenly Father through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gives us the ability to speak in a way that is beyond human understanding. This form of prayer, spoken in the spirit, is a powerful way to connect with God and pray back the mysteries to Him. When we speak in tongues, we speak mysteries beyond our comprehension but are understood by God. It is a profound way to pray, allowing us to communicate with God on a deeper, spiritual level. Effective prayers are spoken in the spirit. It is the perfect way to pray the will of God for ourselves and others. Speaking mysteries back to God refers to the act of praying in tongues, where we communicate with God in a way that transcends human language and understanding. Romans 8:27 (NLT)27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God's own will.Praying in tongues is praying by the Holy Spirit. God knows our thoughts; it may or may not be the will of God. The Holy Spirit giving us the utterance to pray is in the will of God. When we pray in tongues, we will be praying for the perfect will of God. It means that when we pray in tongues, we align our prayers with God's perfect plan for us and others. It is a powerful way to ensure our prayers align with God's intentions.BUILD UP OUR SPIRIT1 Corinthians 14:4 (NKJV)4 He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.Speaking in tongues can be used to edify our spirit. The word 'edify' means to 'charge or build up'. When we pray in tongues, we are charging or building strength in our spirit. This daily practice strengthens our spirit and, in turn, strengthens our faith because faith comes into our spirit. A strong spirit is sensitive to the Holy Spirit and has the strength to walk in faith, release our faith, and be strong in prayer. To edify ourselves is a time of not praying for anything. We can pray in tongues while waiting upon the Lord and charging our spirits simultaneously. Edifying oneself through speaking in tongues strengthens our inner man, enhancing our faith and spiritual sensitivity. WORSHIP GODWe can pray in tongues to worship God, magnify Him, and give Him thanks.Ephesians 5:19 (NKJV)19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,Singing in unknown tongues can make melodies to the Lord, worshipping and exalting Him.Acts 10:46 (NKJV)46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.Then Peter answered,Peter preached to Cornelius and his household. The gift of the Holy Spirit fell on them, and they spoke in tongues and praised God's greatness. Especially when facing surmounting challenges in life, as we magnify God in tongues, He will appear much greater than those challenges.1 Corinthians 14:15–17 (NKJV)15 What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding. 16 Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say? 17 For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified.Singing in tongues is singing in the spirit in praise and worship of God. We can also pray or sing in the spirit to give thanks to God; we will give thanks well. Singing in the spirit, or in tongues, is a form of worship and praise that transcends human language. It is a way to express our gratitude and adoration to God in a deeply spiritual and personal manner.Rev.

个人方言的三种用途

用我们个人的方言祷告有三个主要的目的。对神讲说奥秘的事哥林多前书‬14:2 2 那说方言的，原不是对人说，乃是对　神说，因为没有人听出来。然而，他在心灵里却是讲说各样的奥秘。个人的方言让我们能藉着圣灵直接与天父交流沟通。圣灵所赐的语言能力超乎常人的理解范畴。这种在灵里说话的祷告方式是一个大有能力的、与神连结的方式，让我们能把奥秘的事情通过祷告交还给祂。我们用方言祷告时，是在讲说那些我们无法理解的奥秘，但神能理解。这是一种极具意义的祷告方式，让我们能够在更深的属灵层面与神交流。有效的祷告是在灵里说出来的。这是我们按着神的旨意为自己和他人祷告的完美方式。把奥秘说回给神听，指的就是方言祷告，因为我们是在用超越人类语言和理解的方式在与神交流。 罗马书8:27【新普及译本】27 洞察人心的上帝明白圣灵的意思，因为圣灵照着上帝的旨意为我们信徒祈求。方言祷告就是藉着圣灵祷告。神知道我们的心思意念，或许我们想的就是神的旨意，但也可能不是。而圣灵赐给我们的口才就是神的旨意。当我们用方言祷告的时候，就是在为神完美的旨意祷告。这意味着当我们用方言祷告时，我们的祷告就与神对我们和其他人的完美计划保持一致了。这是一种大有能力的、确保我们的祷告符合神心意的方式。造就我们的灵哥林多前书‬14:4 4 说方言的，是造就自己；作先知讲道的，乃是造就教会。方言祷告可以用来造就我们的灵。“造就”的意思是“充电或建造”。我们用方言祷告时，就是在给自己的灵充电，或者说，是在建造我们灵里的能力。这一日常的操练会坚固我们的灵，从而巩固我们的信心，因为信心是进入我们灵里的。一个刚强的灵会对圣灵非常敏锐，也有力量凭信心而行，释放我们的信心，并在祷告中刚强。造就自己不是为任何具体的事情祷告。 我们可以一边等候主，一边说方言，同时给我们的灵充电。藉着方言祷告造就自己能使我们里面的人刚强起来，也能增强我们的信心和属灵的敏锐度。敬拜神我们可以用方言祷告敬拜神、称赞神为大，将感谢归给祂。以弗所书‬5:19 19 当用诗章、颂词、灵歌彼此对说，口唱心和地赞美主。用方言唱歌就是在口唱心和赞美主、敬拜主、高举祂。使徒行传‬10:46 46 因听见他们说方言，称赞　神为大。彼得对哥尼流一家传道，圣灵的恩赐就降在他们身上，他们就开始说方言，称赞神为大。尤其是当你面对人生中的严峻挑战时，用方言称赞神为大，祂就会显出自己，比所有那些挑战都要大得多。哥林多前书‬14:15-17 15 这却怎么样呢？我要用灵祷告，也要用悟性祷告；我要用灵歌唱，也要用悟性歌唱。 16 不然，你用灵祝谢，那在座不通方言的人，既然不明白你的话，怎能在你感谢的时候说“阿们”呢？ 17 你感谢的固然是好，无奈不能造就别人。用方言唱歌就是唱灵歌，用灵来敬拜赞美神。我们也可以在灵里祷告或唱歌，来把感谢归给神。这能很好地表达我们的感恩之心。在灵里歌唱，或者说用方言歌唱，是一种超越人类语言的敬拜和赞美的形式。这是一种以极为属灵且个人化的方式来向神表达我们的感恩和渴慕的途径。耀光牧师新加坡信心教会请访问我们的中文播客,faithchurch.sg/牧师手札/#牧师手札 ...
