Tongue on fire

“…he who speaks in a (strange) tongue edifies and improves himself…” 1 Corinthians 14:4 (AMPC)

Beloved, have done everything you know to do and nothing has changed? have you sat down lately and said what more can I do to improve my life? Well, there are lots of things you can do and one of those things is speaking in tongues. Believe me, it will change everything about you. Although most people don’t see it that way, but guess what, speaking in tongues has the ability to improve every area of your life and set you among princes. The Bible says, “…he who speaks in a (strange) tongue edifies and improves himself…” 1 Corinthians 14:4 (AMPC). This lets us know that when you speak in tongues, you are not only fixing things in the realm of the Spirit but you are also fixing things physically as well. Your marriage, finances, job, business etc. all get influenced when you speak in tongues. So it is important that you make speaking in tongues a regular thing in your life. It shouldn’t be something that you do only when you feel like it. It has to be a habit. 

However, some people feel that speaking in tongues happens only when you are overwhelmed by the Spirit of God and cannot be done by yourself. But that is just the lie the devil has used to keep people away from improving their lives. He knows that if they speak in tongues, he will not be able to do them harm. However, it is important to know that when you received Jesus into your life as your Lord and Saviour, you received the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38) who came to live in you in full measure. He came into your life bringing to you all His abilities and one of them is speaking in tongues. He has granted you the utterance and all you need to do is go ahead and speak in tongues. You don’t have to wait for Him to inspire you afresh because you were already inspired when He first came into your life. Now when you speak in tongues, it happens as a result of His influence. So I encourage you to speak in tongues today like you have never done before. Create time for it and try to do it for longer hours if you want it to have a great impact in your life. Praise God!

Thank you heavenly Father for your grace and love, I thank you for giving me the ability to speak in tongues, I declare that it will not depart my lips. And as I speak in tongues, a visible impact will be recorded in every area of my life in the name of Jesus. Amen!
