BE LED OF THE SPIRIT
1 Corinthians 14:15 says, “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.”
GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near Earth. When you are in an unfamiliar neighborhood, for example, a GPS navigation device can help you pinpoint your location and find your way around easily.
Praying in tongues works very much like spiritual GPS. It helps you understand situations accurately so you can be rightly positioned and led by the Spirit of God. It gets you synchronized with the will, purpose, and timing of God. Remember that God knows everything in your heart even before you pray to Him. Hence, the kind of prayer that appeals to Him is that which is in line with His Word.
Jesus said, “And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words” (Matthew 6:7). You are different, however, because you have a spiritual language that enables you to communicate effectively with the Father. It helps you to know the mind of God and understand His purpose and plans for your life. It programs you to recognize His perfect timing and positions you rightly at all times.
Help share with others. God bless you.
