Good word. I heard a preacher say once, "if the Holy Spirit is not as real to us as Jesus was to the disciples when he was on earth, then we are doing something wrong."
@@MikeyCanuck123 Nah I have been with one of the more known healers and also some in a local church, and I do mean that I have been with quite a few different people and nobody could do it, nobody could heal me.
Wow beautiful. This is exactly what I’ve felt the Holy Spirit say to me the last two weeks. To spend more and more time with Him. Praying alone in your closet, speaking in tongues out load while driving somewhere, reading the bible more and more. It’s so edifying/uplifting for your spirit… all glory and praise to Jesus. Galatians 5:16-18 NKJV [16] I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. [17] For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. [18] But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
I’ve had the gift of speaking in ‘tongues’ for 45 years. The Lord knows what we really need. There was a visiting worship band and I went to the service. The individuals in the band were praying for people afterwards. I was going to leave and I was in the fellowship hall getting ready to leave and one of our student pastors came after me and urged me to go back into the sanctuary for prayer. I didn’t think I needed prayer. But God put into that student pastor’s heart his concern for me and he compelled me to go back to get prayed for. That was the night I began speaking in tongues.
The only problem with that is that nothing you stated is according to scripture. Gifts of the Spirit are given by God not by someone praying for you . Also tongues are simply languages given as a sign for unbelievers. It isn't a prayer language nor is it speaking ecstatic gibberish.
Amen! So many believers that openly profess to speak in tongues to appear "Holy" do not have the fruit of the Spirit that demonstrates the love of Christ Jesus for others. Tongues are nothing more than a clashing symbol and noisy gong without demonstrating love. Many just do it to show they have some kind of connection to God but are really hollow inside. The gift of tongues was given to edify and witness to others about our Lord and Savior not to have some kind of special status or showy display of "Godliness" Makes me sick when I hear the gibberish many call tongues. What a disgrace to our risen king. @@stevenlindsey2056
Yes, to your questions. I speak in tongues. Many years ago I was kneeling by bed desperately speaking to the Lord about something falsely said by a visiting speaker. As I prayed suddenly the most incredible peace came upon me and I suddenly started speaking in tongues. I have never been the same.
I'm 43 years old and have believed in Jesus for eternal life since I was 5. When I was 21, after three days of fasting and sleeping in the desert, I experienced a powerful filling of the Holy Spirit like never before. Emerging from the desert, I began to receive prophecies and words of knowledge, which I still experience randomly to this day. Although I have never spoken in tongues, I have laid hands on the sick and witnessed them being instantly healed. It's important to note that not everyone speaks in tongues. The true evidence of salvation is the confession from one's mouth that Jesus is Lord.
Do you know that the main sign, the gift that the Holy Spirit gives is to witness to people. Many get stuck in speaking in tongues. This is so important to point out. God's blessing to you all
I have been in churches where people were speaking in tongues and it did not feel right. I've also been in a few churches where it was clear, people speaking in tongues were filled with the Holy Spirit. The Spirit testifies with our spirit when it's Him. I don't know what to make of this, but God's Spirit leads us into all truth & I believe there are people mimicking or who are following a wrong spirit & the tongues they speak do not carry the anointing.

Yes. False tongues and false fire can be imparted if a witch or someone lays hands on you. We need the gift of discerning of spirits. And if you suspect you can cancel it off you and demand them off.
Great teaching. I love that you mentioned we also need to spend time in worship, reading, communicating with God intimately, etc. We (I) tend to forget that these are required to keep being filled. We should never run short of the fruit (and power) of the Holy Spirit. 🧡🙌
i love that part too. thinking about Eph 5:18 and continuing till Eph 6:20 as one seamless thought as the original letter would not have been divided by chapters and verses. So how to continue being filled with the Holy Spirit ( v18)? It is by speaking to one another psalms .... be in unity husbands and wives...husbands love wives, wives respect husbands..children obey parents ( 6:1); serve and honor each "employers and employees "etc; put on whole armor of God.. pray in the Spirit ( i think this means speak in understanding and also includes tongues) and so on...

Once I was praying in tongues with a catholic, and he was repeating „santa Maria kirie eleison” over and over. I just knew it was not the Holy Spirit. Till this day that person is praying to virgin Mary😢 Speaking about real gift of tongues - there is an episode of Sid Roth’s - it’s Supernatural with Dave Roberson as a guest. In the end of the video he is praying for baptism in the Holy Spirit. You can be filled by just watching and receiving❤️ You can feel the Presence of God thru the screen🙌

True🙏❤️🙏Love,love,love...I never spoke in tongues ..the heat in my hands became intense with heat from a foot apart each other...I always thought that talking in tongues meant that compassion speaks all languages..but, that's just me...
OH, How long have we ignored Him! Wonderful Holy Spirit! I am Guilty as others, Yet I am at present positioned in a Baptist Church; they speak of Him yet to except His move in any way!!! Woo! That was in the past! I feel for the people there and Long for them to be Free from Religion. Oh,God please help us Move before it is Too Late!
i have had my prayer language for about 40 years, but there is sooo much more. I long for more. Please speak more on the how to grow in this. what to do. I believe the realm of the spirit is soo deep and we have not yet tapped into all that He has for us.We are only at the surface of what He wants for us.
Ohhh, we want who is not here. Not near. Ohhhh. Wow. Lord, fill me with your Holy Spirit. Fill me with the fruit of your Holy Spirit. Fill me, gift me with Gifts of- from- your Holy Spirit. In Holy name
I received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit at 19 in 1969 in Montreat, NC. But I didn't always know how to use one of the l;east Gifts FROM God. Even one of the least is Great! Because it build us up in our faith. A missionary to the drug addicts of Hong Kong attributes it to her `success in getting Addicts saved and delivered (see Chasing the Dragon by Jackie Pulinger). A powerful testimony of her ministry. As I speak in tongues and study the operations manual (the Bible) I feel a passion to reach out and witness and pray for others all the time!. Any gift from God is awesome but Tongues is extremely important for praying for others and one self. Don't let Satan make you neglect a very important tool to be an over comer. and grow in ministry to others!
The last thing you said about how to get filled with the Holy Spirit is very important. A lot of people are using clever tactics without getting filled first. I'm one of them. Good job . Thank you. I've never had an experience like you described about getting filled at church. One church claimed to be what you're talking about and turned out to be a bunch of hype . And I've not witnessed the types of giftings GOD provided through HIS apostles . Probably something wrong with me.
Do you read and follow Jesus, Paul, Peter, and John, or do you follow the teachings of "men" who came centuries AFTER all these? Jesus, Paul, Peter, and John ALL said you must be baptized in the name of Jesus. Or do you just parrot what "men" say?
@@lindsaygraham9115John 3:5 KJVS Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Just as Jesus Himself taught in John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and THOU HEAREST THE SOUND thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit. Which is exactly what happened on the day of Pentecost (the beginning of the New Testament church) in the book of Acts. (and continues to happen today) This is Jesus himself teaching this straight from the Bible. Who's report will you believe. God is not the author of confusion. God bless!
@@lindsaygraham9115I'm saying the Bible says if you are not born of the Water & Spirit you can not enter the Kingdom. (Salvation) Just as Jesus Himself taught in John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and THOU HEAREST THE SOUND THEREOF, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit. (The Words of Jesus) Pray and ask God to give you revelation of His Word as He has promised to do if we ask. When we repent and ask Him to fill us with His Spirit and not doubt He promises He will fill you. It usually happens after you repent and then just start thanking Him (out loud) for what He has promised. His Word says He inhabits our praises.
🔥There are 4 Types of ‘Speaking in Tongues’ for Sign to unbelievers, Personal prayer, Ministerial, & Intercessional. Scripture & info listed below ❤️ 1 As Sign to Unbelievers - no interpreter 1 Cor 14:22 Acts 2:1-18 Language unknown to the speaker but known to the hearer 2) Personal Prayer Language (private use) 1 Cor 14:4 Language is unknown to the speaker & hearer. speaker can pray for interpretation 1 Cor 14:13-15. Edifies the speaker's spirit without interpretation. With private interpretation this gift also edifies one's understanding. 3) Ministerial (public use) 1 Cor 14:5 Language unknown to all, interpretation is given to the speaker or another present so that all be edified. 4) Deep Intercessional groaning that words cannot express. Rom 8:26 Language unknown to the speaker & to the hearer. Gal 4:19
Yes, this is true, but this should not be the main way to determine if someone is born again of the Holy Spirit. Derrick Prince talks about this and thought someone was born again because this person was soeaking in tongues. However, he was jn witchcraft . This should not be the main decipher . When i was born again of the Holy spirit God revealed himself to me and i started to experience the spiritual gifts as stated in Corinthians 12 and as stated in Acts 1 8 as well as i started to experience the gift of decerning of spirits . Seeing into the spiritual relam seeing demons and sensing people who have Gods Holy Spirit and it wasn't till months later till i started soeak in spiritual tongues, but i was experiencing other spiritual gifts . By telling people tbey arnt born again because they dont speak in toungues is a falae doctrine and can lead people astray
Born again, then baptized with the Holy Spirit is the pattern. Old testament tells first the blood was applied, then the oil. First be purchased by Jesus Blood then as Acts says be endued with power from on high
The parable of the 10 virgins shows that although many people receive the Holy Spirit only half of all those people who HAVE received the Holy Spirt made it to the Celestial City only half were taken by the BRIDGROOM the half that didn't have enough oil were shut out of the wedding.
I agree. We need to see the Body of Christ pursuing to grow and mature in the fruits of the Holy Spirit according to Galatians 5:22, 23. As baby Christians, I was challenged to continually grow. So much I had to overcome. God rebealed sooo many things to me. I see so many people with "gifts" but lack the fruit. God led me to a scripture in OT about making brick but not allowing enough time for them to be tempered. Meaning too many people rush into a ministry yet dont allow time to go through process of healing & deliverance, growth & maturity in the Lord first to develop the fruits of the Spiirit BEFORE starting a ministry. The disciples were taught first the principles of the Kingdom before Jesus launched them into a ministry for 3 years. When I was like the 2 yr old toddler wanting to get busy working for the Lord, He told me to sit down and sit at his feet to be like Mary. What a better path to follow, being more like Jesus ❤
@@touchinghearts4YHWH Yes, without much honesty, prayer and feeding on the Word we are vulnerable. I liked your analogy to a toddler who merely wants to feel helpful but doesn’t really know what that is. I think it is fitting to point out that this immature one is still a believer and not a false prophet as some might be inclined to believe. Thank you for the encouragement of your comment.

Do you know that the main sign, the gift that the Holy Spirit gives is to witness to people. Many get stuck in speaking in tongues. This is so important to point out. God's blessing to you all❤
i understand you and your words and revelation. I will be the first one to tell you that I have received the gift of tongues, I've had many encounters, visions, etc, have felt His presence and heat, i understand the secret place and how we spend time with Him in that place and in His word but I will openly admit without objection that I have yet to know or experience the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire, to be filled with His power and anointing, to be His obedient and willing vessel. How can I say this with such confidence? I experienced the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire in a vision and I have yet to have that experience happen yet in the natural
You cannot receive any of the gifts of the Spirit without having the Spirit. So either you have the Spirit and don't believe it or you do not have the true gift of tongues
@@teresaemerson6353 i have the true gift of tongues but I have yet to be filled with His power or anointing. It is explained in the book of acts in several places. One example is when Jesus rose from the dead, He breathed Holy Spirit on His disciples, so they received Holy Spirit but before Jesus ascended back into Heaven, He told His disciples to wait in Jerusalem to receive power from Heaven, then they would be His effective witnesses. If they had already received the Holy Spirit, why was it necessary for them to wait to receive power from Heaven?, what was this power that Jesus spoke of?
@@teresaemerson6353 i would argue that it is not unbelief but a gift that is asked for in prayer and received after much preparation and maturity, one of the most powerful gifts received imo
@@teresaemerson6353 our words carry little weight or value to an unbelieving and Godless world unless our words can be demonstrated with power (healing, deliverance, the dead raised, etc), this is what the baptism or anointing of Holy Spirit with Fire accomplishes, it's why Peter, another example, was soo effective speaking to the crowds at Pentecost (keep in mind that he had already received Holy Spirit before Pentecost) it was because he was now anointed or filled or baptized with Holy Spirit and fire (power from Heaven?) it was really God or Holy Spirit Himself who was moving and speaking through Peter, a yielded vessel
You must come to Torpe Finland with Finland needs the freedom of the son of God. Jesus. I have prayed to God that he would send you here to Finland and that I would get all the facilities and funds and a small number of people to help with the arrangements. I myself need deliverance and the fullness of the holy spirit and tongues. ....PRAY GOD TO SEND YOU TO FINLAND🙏
I just saw a vision of you with a full head of hair, and a full beard while you were speaking about the Spirit coming upon Saul and David! Does this mean something to you? (I had also received a word while you were in prison about you being like David, defeating goliath with a stone)
I have been asking for the baptism of the holy spirit for a long time now, I dont understand why I have to wait, I hear others amazing testimonies/ encounters with Jesus and dont understand why he is so silent to me, it makes me afraid and feel rejected, how long Lord? I feel so discouraged.
I hear you. Ask God to work out his new nature in you. The Spirit is not another "thing" we have, but God's presence that fulfills God's will on earth, and it means giving up our plans for our lives, to be lead by the Spirit.
I’m sorry that you feel rejected. I do understand persecution of the mind. I resist Satans lies of rejection through meditation on John 3:16. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have ever lasting life. Everyone is a whoever, it combats self rejection and fear of rejection. I’ve been a believer for 30+ years and I still meditate on this verse. Another comfort is Rachel in Gen 29, who’s sister Leah was having boy child after boy child while her womb was empty. Yet she was not rejected, God remembered Rachel. Set your heart and desire on God and remember Him and all He has done for you. He could have rejected mankind and counted the perfection of the law as justification to destroy all of humanity but instead He humbled Himself to personally rescue and ransom us. Think long on these things and you will find the joy of the Lord bursting from your heart. He is a perfect Father and He can thoroughly be trusted! Praying for you. 🙏
@@karateana7593 only believe! Do not doubt that you are so very precious to God! Do you struggle trusting other people? Would you describe yourself as self sufficient or independent? This was me. I needed to let go of my need to control and trust/fear/depend on Him more. Whatever you need ask God for. Patience, joy, trust while you wait on His timing. He’s our supply chain!! Blessings 🙏
Sometimes, the Holy Spirit hits you like a train, but sometimes he is gentle. I have often asked Jesus and the Father for his spirit to come in with an expectation of rattling off in tongues like a machine gun but what happens often to me is an overwhelming peace, a love. And a capacity to love others , to forgive and to see where I need to repent. And a courage to let go in the mind and speak from the heart when I pray. Often he gives me very quick decernment to spot somthing false, and guards my heart. The Holy Spirit of God, can move differently depending on where you are because he searches your heart. In many cases, the enemy will cast doubt in you by triggering off covetousness (comparison & envy). But look carefully and see the incredible transformation that happens on deep subtle levels that corrects the root of character. Trust and rejoice that he is doing work in you on levels you were not even aware of. And witness the fruit in your outlook, your responses, your awareness and your levels of peace. And when you feel fear, worry and doubt. Ask the Father, ask Jesus for his peace and his comfort and the Comforter will show up. We often expect euphoria or a high from the Holy Spirit. But he empowers and moves us in reality. And often brings sobermindedness. Please correct me if I am wrong but this has been my experience as a child of God who is also learning and growing. I pray this helps and welcome correction
Are there any sins you are holding onto or forgiveness you need to do? The strongest manifestation of the Holy Spirit I have ever experienced was in a group of a dozen of us praying together in praise standing in a circle. One by one we were overcome with supernatural joy and we started falling straight back onto a hard floor, completely unharmed! As I fell, it felt like the floor came up to touch me! So consider getting into a praise and worship and prayer group. For when 2 or more are gathered in His name, He is there! Matt 18
The Apostle Paul explains, in 1 Corinthians 14, the difference between our private prayer tongue and the public "tongues and interpretation". The public is not for all. The private is for everyone who is saved.
It can be very confusing if anyone didnt get speaking tongues, because they think they have no holy Spirit this is dangerous. I was in a Luke 10 Seminar last year and this guy „i will not mention his Namen“ say to me „if i pray for you for the holy ghost, speak anything. I speak anything but it was not a supernatural Event because it came from myself. I know i have the holy Spirit because of the love the growing knowledge the joy and more. I dont speak on tongues but i believe in iti will encourage every Brother and sister, you must not speak in tongues to have the holy ghost. God decides when we geht supernatural Gifts.
You are correct. TLR made me speak "in tongues" when they baptized me and I just imitated my mom speaking in tongues. Everybody cheered and no one could tell the difference. My heart was broken. Later the next day I truly recieved the baptism of the holy spirit and it was an amazing experience. I love TLR, but I don't follow them much anymore.

Many believers who born again only and they might get gift of tongues, but they aren’t abiding in the Spirit all the time and don’t let The Holy Spirit to transform them in the image of God.
I have known many people who speak with tongues and drink , swear, sleep around, and have never buried their old life in Jesus name and never repeat of there sins. Have no fruit of the holy spirit yet tell everyone all is good. There is no fear of God is the church. Just follow the early church pattern then there will be no mistake.
I think my question is now that you are born of Christ, you have received The Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues ARE YOU DYING TO SELF DAILY and walking out your life in the leadership and fellowship and power of The Holy Spirit You can!
Gift of the Holy Ghost vs Gift of Tongues Just as Jesus Himself taught in John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit. And was confirmed on the day of Pentecost. There is no question ALL will speak in tongues when filled. Acts 2:2-4 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. I think the understanding of speaking with tongues when one is filled with the Gift of the Holy Ghost as promised in Acts 2:38 (which all will do when born of the Spirit...see scripture above) gets confused with being used in the Gift of tongues and interpretation in I Corinthians 12:28-30, (see scripture below) this gift is given to some by God for Him to use them to edify the church. All speak in tongues when filled with the Gift of Holy Ghost (born of the Spirit, see scripture above) but not all are used in the gift of tongues & interpretation (diversity of tongues) which are used to edify the church. You can not be used in the gift of tongues & interpretation without first speaking in tongues when born of the Spirit. I know these are different because I have received both. EVERYONE Born of the Spirit will speak in tongues. See the 1st 2 scriptures above John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot † enter into the kingdom of God. John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit. God is not the author of confusion. Thank You Jesus!
many are filled with the Holy Spirit speak in tongues, but they have the Holy Spirit locked up and do not allow Him to teach them the truth, they don't release Him by praying in tongues, Jude 20, so they just continue in the ways of man. They have the Holy Spirit locked up, and He cannot help them as they disagree with their inheritance daily, not giving the Holy Spirit anything to work with.
i was trying so hard for many years to speak in tongues, i would do it in my own power, feel soo foolish and give up shortly after and not try again. One day as I was doing this, Holy Spirit finally spoke up and said, 'ask for the gift of Tongues in prayer'. I was obedient to that word and did what I was asked and about 6 months to a year later, I received the gift of speaking in Tongues as a gift from Him, it came naturally and effortlessly. Speaking in tongues is a gift that you and I ask for in Faith and trust, as we pray and ask for it and expect it, He prepares us to receive it in the mean time and it is given as a gift from Him in His perfect love and time, if this makes any sense, it's not something we attempt to do in our power and strength, it is a gift that is given and used responsibly, like a steward, even with the gift, I still must ask for His help to use it. This was my experience, I hope this helps you and you too receive the gift of Tongues for shortly after receiving and exercising that gift,... dreams, words of knowledge and visions would explode in my life

I feel for the people there and Long for them to be Free from Religion.
Oh,God please help us Move before it is Too Late!
Great observation Torben!!!
Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you so very much for this teaching. I really needed that right now.
May God bless you and your family, Torben
i have had my prayer language for about 40 years, but there is sooo much more. I long for more. Please speak more on the how to grow in this. what to do. I believe the realm of the spirit is soo deep and we have not yet tapped into all that He has for us.We are only at the surface of what He wants for us.
Amen and Amen Shalom Glory to God Maranatha ❤
Be blessed 🙏🏽
Very good, torben 🌸🤗🌸
Amen, may the Lord bless you, faithful servant of the Word of the Lord.
Ohhh, we want who is not here. Not near. Ohhhh. Wow.
Lord, fill me with your Holy Spirit. Fill me with the fruit of your Holy Spirit. Fill me, gift me with Gifts of- from- your Holy Spirit. In Holy name
I received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit at 19 in 1969 in Montreat, NC. But I didn't always know how to use one of the l;east Gifts FROM God. Even one of the least is Great! Because it build us up in our faith. A missionary to the drug addicts of Hong Kong attributes it to her `success in getting Addicts saved and delivered (see Chasing the Dragon by Jackie Pulinger). A powerful testimony of her ministry. As I speak in tongues and study the operations manual (the Bible) I feel a passion to reach out and witness and pray for others all the time!. Any gift from God is awesome but Tongues is extremely important for praying for others and one self. Don't let Satan make you neglect a very important tool to be an over comer. and grow in ministry to others!
Thank you.
thank you,,,we need to examine ourselves
❤🔥 blessings Pastor Torbin & everyone, Mel from Belize C.A 🇧🇿 i have the Holy Spirit 🔥 but i have not spoken in tongue dear 🙏 !
The last thing you said about how to get filled with the Holy Spirit is very important.
A lot of people are using clever tactics without getting filled first.
I'm one of them. Good job . Thank you.
I've never had an experience like you described about getting filled at church.
One church claimed to be what you're talking about and turned out to be a bunch of hype .
And I've not witnessed the types of giftings GOD provided through HIS apostles .
Probably something wrong with me.
Boldness, you will be my witnesses... you will be different, set apart, you will recognise when you have drifted away from God.
I know the difference of a church with the Holy Spirit and one without.
Without the Holy Spirit I could not serve Jesus and Abba would get no glory from my life .. Every day you need to reconnect to the power source …
I wondered something similar and i got "school" i was like oh so they learn it
So true!
Hi Torben,
I wish there was less emphasis on speaking in tongues, and transformation of our nature and attitude towatds God, instead.
Speaking it tongues is a gift, not a requirement for salvation. People have different gifts.
Do you read and follow Jesus, Paul, Peter, and John,
or do you follow the teachings of "men" who came centuries AFTER all these?
Jesus, Paul, Peter, and John ALL said you must be baptized in the name of Jesus.
Or do you just parrot what "men" say?
@@lindsaygraham9115John 3:5 KJVS
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Just as Jesus Himself taught in
John 3:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and THOU HEAREST THE SOUND thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit.
Which is exactly what happened on the day of Pentecost (the beginning of the New Testament church) in the book of Acts. (and continues to happen today)
This is Jesus himself teaching this straight from the Bible.
Who's report will you believe.
God is not the author of confusion.
God bless!
@@lindsaygraham9115I'm saying the Bible says if you are not born of the Water & Spirit you can not enter the Kingdom. (Salvation) Just as Jesus Himself taught in
John 3:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and THOU HEAREST THE SOUND THEREOF, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit. (The Words of Jesus)
Pray and ask God to give you revelation of His Word as He has promised to do if we ask.
When we repent and ask Him to fill us with His Spirit and not doubt He promises He will fill you. It usually happens after you repent and then just start thanking Him (out loud) for what He has promised. His Word says He inhabits our praises.
🔥There are 4 Types of ‘Speaking in Tongues’ for Sign to unbelievers, Personal prayer, Ministerial, & Intercessional. Scripture & info listed below ❤️
1 As Sign to Unbelievers - no interpreter 1 Cor 14:22 Acts 2:1-18
Language unknown to the speaker but known to the hearer
2) Personal Prayer Language (private use) 1 Cor 14:4 Language is unknown to the speaker & hearer. speaker can pray for interpretation 1 Cor 14:13-15. Edifies the speaker's spirit without interpretation. With private interpretation this gift also edifies one's understanding.
3) Ministerial (public use) 1 Cor 14:5 Language unknown to all, interpretation is given to the speaker or another present so that all be edified.
4) Deep Intercessional groaning that words cannot express. Rom 8:26 Language unknown to the speaker & to the hearer. Gal 4:19
What do exactly mean when you say that the [Holy Spirit] should "not be worshipped"? Do you have another teaching on this? Thank you.
Same
Holy Spirit is also God and a person you can also worship him bro 😊
Yes, this is true, but this should not be the main way to determine if someone is born again of the Holy Spirit. Derrick Prince talks about this and thought someone was born again because this person was soeaking in tongues. However, he was jn witchcraft . This should not be the main decipher . When i was born again of the Holy spirit God revealed himself to me and i started to experience the spiritual gifts as stated in Corinthians 12 and as stated in Acts 1 8 as well as i started to experience the gift of decerning of spirits . Seeing into the spiritual relam seeing demons and sensing people who have Gods Holy Spirit and it wasn't till months later till i started soeak in spiritual tongues, but i was experiencing other spiritual gifts . By telling people tbey arnt born again because they dont speak in toungues is a falae doctrine and can lead people astray
Born again, then baptized with the Holy Spirit is the pattern. Old testament tells first the blood was applied, then the oil. First be purchased by Jesus Blood then as Acts says be endued with power from on high
You forgot to edit in the picture of the book cover … I do that with my email attachments 😜
Yes I speak in tongues . In Romans 10:9 and 10 the confession
👍
Righteousness, godliness
I am longing for the holy spirit...
The parable of the 10 virgins shows that although many people receive the Holy Spirit only half of all those people who HAVE received the Holy Spirt made it to the Celestial City only half were taken by the BRIDGROOM the half that didn't have enough oil were shut out of the wedding.
1 Timothy 3:16
I want to be full.of Holy.Spirit but i dont have gift of tongues and badly want to
Is there a false tongue or a counterfeit tongue? Tongues are a gift but I am more hungry for fruit. Galatians gives us the character of Holy Spirit.
Sure is. And last I read we should pray for interpretation. Is that going on?
@@kimmykimko Do you ask for an interpretation of private tongues as well as corporate?
I agree. We need to see the Body of Christ pursuing to grow and mature in the fruits of the Holy Spirit according to Galatians 5:22, 23. As baby Christians, I was challenged to continually grow. So much I had to overcome. God rebealed sooo many things to me. I see so many people with "gifts" but lack the fruit. God led me to a scripture in OT about making brick but not allowing enough time for them to be tempered. Meaning too many people rush into a ministry yet dont allow time to go through process of healing & deliverance, growth & maturity in the Lord first to develop the fruits of the Spiirit BEFORE starting a ministry. The disciples were taught first the principles of the Kingdom before Jesus launched them into a ministry for 3 years. When I was like the 2 yr old toddler wanting to get busy working for the Lord, He told me to sit down and sit at his feet to be like Mary. What a better path to follow, being more like Jesus ❤
@@touchinghearts4YHWH Yes, without much honesty, prayer and feeding on the Word we are vulnerable. I liked your analogy to a toddler who merely wants to feel helpful but doesn’t really know what that is. I think it is fitting to point out that this immature one is still a believer and not a false prophet as some might be inclined to believe. Thank you for the encouragement of your comment.
Do you know that the main sign, the gift that the Holy Spirit gives is to witness to people. Many get stuck in speaking in tongues. This is so important to point out. God's blessing to you all❤
i understand you and your words and revelation. I will be the first one to tell you that I have received the gift of tongues, I've had many encounters, visions, etc, have felt His presence and heat, i understand the secret place and how we spend time with Him in that place and in His word but I will openly admit without objection that I have yet to know or experience the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire, to be filled with His power and anointing, to be His obedient and willing vessel. How can I say this with such confidence? I experienced the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire in a vision and I have yet to have that experience happen yet in the natural
I am a christian without power
You cannot receive any of the gifts of the Spirit without having the Spirit. So either you have the Spirit and don't believe it or you do not have the true gift of tongues
@@teresaemerson6353 i have the true gift of tongues but I have yet to be filled with His power or anointing. It is explained in the book of acts in several places. One example is when Jesus rose from the dead, He breathed Holy Spirit on His disciples, so they received Holy Spirit but before Jesus ascended back into Heaven, He told His disciples to wait in Jerusalem to receive power from Heaven, then they would be His effective witnesses. If they had already received the Holy Spirit, why was it necessary for them to wait to receive power from Heaven?, what was this power that Jesus spoke of?
@@teresaemerson6353 i would argue that it is not unbelief but a gift that is asked for in prayer and received after much preparation and maturity, one of the most powerful gifts received imo
@@teresaemerson6353 our words carry little weight or value to an unbelieving and Godless world unless our words can be demonstrated with power (healing, deliverance, the dead raised, etc), this is what the baptism or anointing of Holy Spirit with Fire accomplishes, it's why Peter, another example, was soo effective speaking to the crowds at Pentecost (keep in mind that he had already received Holy Spirit before Pentecost) it was because he was now anointed or filled or baptized with Holy Spirit and fire (power from Heaven?) it was really God or Holy Spirit Himself who was moving and speaking through Peter, a yielded vessel
You must come to Torpe Finland with Finland needs the freedom of the son of God. Jesus. I have prayed to God that he would send you here to Finland and that I would get all the facilities and funds and a small number of people to help with the arrangements. I myself need deliverance and the fullness of the holy spirit and tongues. ....PRAY GOD TO SEND YOU TO FINLAND🙏
Not everyone has the same gift .
I just saw a vision of you with a full head of hair, and a full beard while you were speaking about the Spirit coming upon Saul and David! Does this mean something to you? (I had also received a word while you were in prison about you being like David, defeating goliath with a stone)
I have been asking for the baptism of the holy spirit for a long time now, I dont understand why I have to wait, I hear others amazing testimonies/ encounters with Jesus and dont understand why he is so silent to me, it makes me afraid and feel rejected, how long Lord? I feel so discouraged.
I hear you. Ask God to work out his new nature in you. The Spirit is not another "thing" we have, but God's presence that fulfills God's will on earth, and it means giving up our plans for our lives, to be lead by the Spirit.
I’m sorry that you feel rejected. I do understand persecution of the mind. I resist Satans lies of rejection through meditation on John 3:16. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have ever lasting life.
Everyone is a whoever, it combats self rejection and fear of rejection. I’ve been a believer for 30+ years and I still meditate on this verse.
Another comfort is Rachel in Gen 29, who’s sister Leah was having boy child after boy child while her womb was empty. Yet she was not rejected, God remembered Rachel. Set your heart and desire on God and remember Him and all He has done for you.
He could have rejected mankind and counted the perfection of the law as justification to destroy all of humanity but instead He humbled Himself to personally rescue and ransom us. Think long on these things and you will find the joy of the Lord bursting from your heart. He is a perfect Father and He can thoroughly be trusted! Praying for you. 🙏
@@karateana7593 only believe! Do not doubt that you are so very precious to God!
Do you struggle trusting other people? Would you describe yourself as self sufficient or independent? This was me. I needed to let go of my need to control and trust/fear/depend on Him more. Whatever you need ask God for. Patience, joy, trust while you wait on His timing. He’s our supply chain!! Blessings 🙏
Sometimes, the Holy Spirit hits you like a train, but sometimes he is gentle. I have often asked Jesus and the Father for his spirit to come in with an expectation of rattling off in tongues like a machine gun but what happens often to me is an overwhelming peace, a love. And a capacity to love others , to forgive and to see where I need to repent. And a courage to let go in the mind and speak from the heart when I pray. Often he gives me very quick decernment to spot somthing false, and guards my heart. The Holy Spirit of God, can move differently depending on where you are because he searches your heart. In many cases, the enemy will cast doubt in you by triggering off covetousness (comparison & envy). But look carefully and see the incredible transformation that happens on deep subtle levels that corrects the root of character. Trust and rejoice that he is doing work in you on levels you were not even aware of. And witness the fruit in your outlook, your responses, your awareness and your levels of peace. And when you feel fear, worry and doubt. Ask the Father, ask Jesus for his peace and his comfort and the Comforter will show up.
We often expect euphoria or a high from the Holy Spirit. But he empowers and moves us in reality. And often brings sobermindedness.
Please correct me if I am wrong but this has been my experience as a child of God who is also learning and growing.
I pray this helps and welcome correction
Are there any sins you are holding onto or forgiveness you need to do?
The strongest manifestation of the Holy Spirit I have ever experienced was in a group of a dozen of us praying together in praise standing in a circle. One by one we were overcome with supernatural joy and we started falling straight back onto a hard floor, completely unharmed! As I fell, it felt like the floor came up to touch me!
So consider getting into a praise and worship and prayer group. For when 2 or more are gathered in His name, He is there! Matt 18
So, is there a difference between the OT, having the Spirit upon you and the NT being filled with the Holy Spirit?
...Understanding, that in the OT it was not for everyone...from acts on it is now for everybody who goes through repentance and baptism of water
Paul said to a congregation that tongues is a gift, and not all had that gift.
1 Corinthians 12/30
The Apostle Paul explains, in 1 Corinthians 14, the difference between our private prayer tongue and the public "tongues and interpretation". The public is not for all. The private is for everyone who is saved.
It can be very confusing if anyone didnt get speaking tongues, because they think they have no holy Spirit this is dangerous.
I was in a Luke 10 Seminar last year and this guy „i will not mention his Namen“ say to me „if i pray for you for the holy ghost, speak anything. I speak anything but it was not a supernatural Event because it came from myself.
I know i have the holy Spirit because of the love the growing knowledge the joy and more.
I dont speak on tongues but i believe in iti will encourage every Brother and sister, you must not speak in tongues to have the holy ghost. God decides when we geht supernatural Gifts.
You are correct. TLR made me speak "in tongues" when they baptized me and I just imitated my mom speaking in tongues. Everybody cheered and no one could tell the difference. My heart was broken. Later the next day I truly recieved the baptism of the holy spirit and it was an amazing experience. I love TLR, but I don't follow them much anymore.
Drogi Torbenie czy to co mówisz może być streszczone pod Twoim postem aby później można było tłumaczyć na inne języki?
If you have two devices, you can set one to Microsoft Word Talk to Text (microphone icon), while the other device plays, and then you can copy and paste the Word document into a Translate APP.
Many believers who born again only and they might get gift of tongues, but they aren’t abiding in the Spirit all the time and don’t let The Holy Spirit to transform them in the image of God.
I have known many people who speak with tongues and drink , swear, sleep around, and have never buried their old life in Jesus name and never repeat of there sins. Have no fruit of the holy spirit yet tell everyone all is good. There is no fear of God is the church. Just follow the early church pattern then there will be no mistake.
I think my question is now that you are born of Christ, you have received The Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues ARE YOU DYING TO SELF DAILY and walking out your life in the leadership and fellowship and power of The Holy Spirit You can!
And if the spiritual "gifts" are there but there is no love from those possessing the gifts? (1 Corinthians 13). Can pride take over?
Gift of the Holy Ghost vs Gift of Tongues
Just as Jesus Himself taught in
John 3:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit.
And was confirmed on the day of Pentecost. There is no question ALL will speak in tongues when filled.
Acts 2:2-4
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
I think the understanding of speaking with tongues when one is filled with the Gift of the Holy Ghost as promised in Acts 2:38 (which all will do when born of the Spirit...see scripture above) gets confused with being used in the Gift of tongues and interpretation in I Corinthians 12:28-30, (see scripture below) this gift is given to some by God for Him to use them to edify the church.
All speak in tongues when filled with the Gift of Holy Ghost (born of the Spirit, see scripture above) but not all are used in the gift of tongues & interpretation (diversity of tongues) which are used to edify the church.
You can not be used in the gift of tongues & interpretation without first speaking in tongues when born of the Spirit.
I know these are different because I have received both.
EVERYONE Born of the Spirit will speak in tongues. See the 1st 2 scriptures above
John 3:5
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot † enter into the kingdom of God.
John 3:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is EVERY ONE that is born of the Spirit.
God is not the author of confusion.
Thank You Jesus!
I haven't spoke in tongues.
many are filled with the Holy Spirit speak in tongues, but they have the Holy Spirit locked up and do not allow Him to teach them the truth, they don't release Him by praying in tongues, Jude 20, so they just continue in the ways of man. They have the Holy Spirit locked up, and He cannot help them as they disagree with their inheritance daily, not giving the Holy Spirit anything to work with.
Walter Veith make a great series (The whole truth)

I haven’t been able to speak in my heavenly language yet 😢can some one give me any tips
Have you been baptised in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit?
@@fazole Just in the the name of the lord Jesus
i was trying so hard for many years to speak in tongues, i would do it in my own power, feel soo foolish and give up shortly after and not try again. One day as I was doing this, Holy Spirit finally spoke up and said, 'ask for the gift of Tongues in prayer'. I was obedient to that word and did what I was asked and about 6 months to a year later, I received the gift of speaking in Tongues as a gift from Him, it came naturally and effortlessly. Speaking in tongues is a gift that you and I ask for in Faith and trust, as we pray and ask for it and expect it, He prepares us to receive it in the mean time and it is given as a gift from Him in His perfect love and time, if this makes any sense, it's not something we attempt to do in our power and strength, it is a gift that is given and used responsibly, like a steward, even with the gift, I still must ask for His help to use it. This was my experience, I hope this helps you and you too receive the gift of Tongues for shortly after receiving and exercising that gift,... dreams, words of knowledge and visions would explode in my life

Peter said Repent and be baptized…how?
i do not understand. the HS never leaves you. But the people do not give the HS room to expand.
I believe the HOLY SPIRIT is to be worshiped… HE is GDO HIMSELF ….
The gift of tongues is about different languages understanding each other..not babbling confusion i see en mass
Torben, as you say, the Holy Spirit is God, so why wouldn't we worship Him?
Even Jesus said, "Worship God." The trinity has become a construct that ANYBODY can talk about, Christian or NOT. We NEED to FIRST listen to what Jesus says. Why? John 12.44-50.
@@saludanite - Amen, Bill! 🙏🏼✝️❤️
Last days wolves in the church are fake
Is God a Spirit? Is He Holy? THATS THE HOLY SPIRIT!!

You need the Holy Ghost to be able to go to heaven
Not saved, no Holy Spirit, phony gifts. Sick of it.
Its gibberish....
