After a year and a half of doubt and disobedience, I have been pursuing God seriously and almost desperately. I have seen people pray in tongues my whole life but it seemed like "too much" for me. I didn't understand it and it was kind of intimidating and scary, to be honest. However, this past Sunday I woke up around 3am and decided to pray. I prayed that the holy spirit would come into my life and come upon me. 5 mins later I was speaking in tongues and crying. It was so surreal and crazy but faith-affirming and strengthening as well. It feels like I've hit a new level with my walk with God and again, to be honest, it's a bit scary. I'm so thankful for Alyssa's videos because they have encouraged me through depression, anxiety, and doubt. You are definetely helping others build their relationships with God. Thanks for allowing the lord to use you.
iluvlondon08 I’m so happy for you !!! I’m on my journey as well but I too feel like I am not ready for the Holy Spirit. I am kinda nervous and don’t think I’m good enough yet. Hopefully I’ll get to that level
@@cadende2010 Trust and believe and don't be afraid. You got this. Just let go and let God. Praying that love and blessings continuously come your way in Jesus name Amen. 🙏💞
One thing God has been teaching me lately in the verse where it says "give us this day our daily bread," is that prayer is a daily thing. The bible says pray without ceasing and I love that Jesus makes sure to say "this day" so we know that we need to be praying and communicating every single day. And it's funny because I'll pray about something one day and then expect that prayer to carry over into the next day/forever-until the end of time lol. But God has been really speaking to me about coming to Him for my daily bread. Like Amber, if you need help today or joy, or a good attitude at work, or maybe a desire to read the Word, ask me today, ask this day for your daily bread. And He is so faithful and so good that He gives it every time! 😊 Haha, sorry for the essay, I just love sharing and I love that this video is about prayer!!! Sooo important!!! 🙌🙌 Praise the Lord!
No need to apologize for Sharing girl! That's Awesome, that you have no fear to let everyone know! God Bless you and yours in Jesus name! " Since we're sharing, if you want check out this group! plus.google.com/communities/100910038926282374769?sqinv=dXNLakZwWkppNGEyUHR0VHpFWTFvb2JUY0wta1B3
Woooooo! You just led your subscribers to be filled with the Holy Ghost!!! 🤪🔥😱 So amazing girl! I’ve been nervous to talk about it on my channel! I am filled with the Spirit too! This encouraged me so much! SO GOOD! 🔥
Wonderful Acts Hey, Alyssa, I watched the John Bevere video, actually watched the full 2 hour sermon and also some from other teachers as well, been up all night actually. I was literally getting into researching more about tongues and some other spiritual gifts when you posted. There is another TH-camr named, Grace and Mercy unto You, who believes everybody should speak in tongues, I don't think for salvation, but I know for sure, she said as evidence that you have and are filled with the Holy Spirit. She was literally on a live talking about this before you posted. I watched the John Bevere video and he further depended my understanding about the gift tongues. I already believed it was real but I struggled with what exactly It should sound like, what it is exactly, etc., and scriptually he clarified most of that a great deal. I was literally up last night flipping back and forth in my bible with him (I love when preachers do that lol). But then he gets to around 50 something minutes and he loses me, which is where he would have proved that everyone SHOULD speak in tongues. Romans 8:26-27, wasn't clearly explained like he did the others as it pertained to it being a personal gift everyone should have. I have always seen Romans 8:26-27 as, no one knows how exactly (us being earthly and not knowing what we need or what others need) so the Spirit Himself (speaking through us or not speaking through us) interceeds for us according to the perfect will of God. For He knows us completely and He knows God completely. And I understand what Bevere is saying after about these verses as it pertains to those who speak in tongues, but he believes everyone should, but he didn't show that scriptually as he was going to, so now I have to add whether Romans 8:26-27 is for everyone or just those who speak in tongues. I'm at a crossroads now as to whether or not everyone should, though I lean more towards no, not everyone, as I believed before last night, but they really, even you and Mark 16:17-18 have me now wondering if yes, everyone should be able to, at least in personal prayer, as Bevere believes. But I don't see/understand that just yet, so I say all that to ask, resources Alyssa! Lol, do you have anymore? Specifically with emphasis on using the Word to show it clearly, in context. Because I'm like there are so many godly people who don't speak in tongues but they may have other gifts. If tongues if evidence, isn't discerning spirits, knowledge, wisdom, faith also evidence of the Holy Spirit being present in an individual? I don't say healing, miracles, and prophesy because I often see them equated (maybe except prophesy) together and also they are very open and clear signs as opposed to the others and I think interpretation is pretty self-explanatory lol. All that said, I don't want to get caught up with the gifts and place them above the giver, because I still believe that Jesus said you will know them by their fruit (which every believer gets varyingly) not by their gifts (but then Mark 16 lol) though it is believed that the gift of tongues/being filled with the Holy Spirit is a separate experience from conversion/baptism (looking into that one too). Anyways thanks if you read all this, and thanks if you have any resources to help or any knowledge to drop. Love you, girl!
thingsilove18 hi there! I do not know of AS MUCH resources as Alyssa but if I remember and understood my bible correctly (I believe I did...) NOT everyone can or does speak in tongues, in the same way that not everyone has the gift of Prophecy or Discerning of Spirits or any other gift. I do however think it IS possible to obtain a Spiritual Gift you would like to have by prayer. I also think if you just leave yourself opened for God to do what He wants in you life Spiritually (well and in general 🤣), than He can lead you to pray for a certain gift. That is what happened to me, I was reading my bible one day and God led me to pray for the gifts of Discerning Spirits and Prophecy and then I got them. Well I actually think I had the gift of Discerning Spirits for a while before I was even aware, but I got the gift of Prophecy last year and I love it, I think its SO COOL, though I did have some troubling and worrying experiences in regards to a loved one were the Lord showed me someone in bad situations and I had to pray and ask Jesus to help me, the other person and to tell me what I needed to pray for them. But I have not had to use it for any other dangerous situations since last fall. In the end the person left both situations unharmed and in a car accident that they had for one circumstance I had to pray about for them, they left a head on car crash with just some bruises. I thank God for His strength, Love and Mercy. God is good even though I don't always know why He allows things to go according to an unknown plan. God bless you!
This is a direct answer to my prayer in my car 15 minutes ago on my way home. I told God, I feel like our relationship isn't natural. Show me how to get to know you once again like a child. And here you are! Praise God.
So good. Only 6 minutes in and had to comment. Lol. I’m glad that you mentioned the “us” part in praying. Recently I noticed while I was praying I kept saying words like “us, we, our” and in the middle of praying I would stop and think why am I saying “we” no one is here praying with me.. it’s just me here and I would change the words to say me, I, etc. and I just realized it doesn’t matter if someone is around me. I also don’t need to know in detail who the spirit leads me to pray for. I should say we, us, our because I’m praying for the body of Christ! Thank you!! 💗
I think my best prayers, the ones that come from a deep place, happens when I realize that God is my father. Like my earthly father was amazing but God is like a million times that. And when I realized that our relationship was filled with that much love it opened our communication. If that makes sense....
The Lord totally spoke to me in this video. When I went to youth group on Tuesday, my prayer request was to be spirit filled. Thank you for making this video. All glory be to God!
I clicked on this video today on accident after trying to click on a video that is an idol for me (body image).... I dont know how though, but this one popped up! And I'm so thankful it did because I needed this so much today! Thank you for all of your wisdom and encouragement! You're such a blessing.
So timely! I literally just finished telling God that sometimes I hesitate asking for specific things because it seems that something unfavorable occurs in order for me to obtain it. But this reminded me that He keeps no good thing away from those who love Him. He's not going to give me something that will harm me. Thanks Alyssa for the reminder!
Oooh weee the Holy Spirit is where it's at! I love the Holy Spirit so much. He's my best friend and everything I come to know that holds any value is because of the Holy Spirit.
When you began praying for us at the end I felt filled with the spirit and I just want to thank you for being faithful to God and making this video! ❤️ God bless you and your beautiful family!
Loved your video. I always wondered why Jesus said the Father would give us the Holy Spirit when He was speaking about fathers giving needful gifts to their children. It always seemed out of place. I did not realize that He was giving Him to help us to pray. What a revelation. I love praying in the Holy Spirit...He is like a kindred spirit and I love Him.
AMEN! I've felt the Holy Spirit before and I felt the Holy Spirit as you were praying! I pray that other people who watch this video also experience Him.
I thank you so much for this video sis! Literally this morning I was reading the part in John when Jesus prayed for the disciples and all future Christians before being betrayed and I was just in awe of how beautiful His prayer was. Last July I received the Holy Spirit and it has been a wildd ride! LOL. Speaking in tongues is something I do, but am very apprehensive for others to witness. This past month in my prayer life there have been many moments where I go to pray and not a word of English comes out, and I was asking the Lord why is this happening? When you started praying in tongues I literally said out loud "i'm not alone!". I immediately began to start praying myself. The Holy Spirit is a treasure from the kingdom of Heaven. Don't stop what you are doing it is truly inspirational! You are unashamed and unafraid, it's amazing.
I just found your channel about an hour ago and I've been catching up on all your videos, crying and resubmitting myself to God 🙌🏾 I'm So happy I found you . May God continue to bless you and your family .
NO...not at all too radical for me. You Alyssa are such a breath of fresh air. I've been crying out to GOD for true Fellowshipping connections so that I can be obedient to HIM particularly in that, and he connected me with your VLOG, which is right in line with what I've been Studying. THANKS FOR THE CONFIRMATION. MANY BLESSINGS TO YOU, YOUR HUSBAND, AND YOUR PRECIOUS LIL' GLORY. 💙💖💖
Thank you so much for this video. It encouraged me to be persistent in my prayer and reminded me about the intimacy of calling God my Father. When we think of the characteristic of what a father is called to be, it makes it that much more easier to believe that you will recieve what you are praying for. It also makes you feel safe. And not only all of that, but when you think of the fact that God is not like man, and that He is the great I am and can do exceedingly, abundantly, above all we can ask or think, it helps our unbelief and increases our faith that our father God wants to do and will do what's best for us, and that He loves. And for those of us that have not had the best examples of what a father is, draw closer to God, pray and read His word and He will show you what that means and He will help you to forgive your Earthly father. Anyway, thank you so much for sharing this video and not cutting it short. It truly blessed me and I am sure that it has and will bless many others.
Yes, this video is amazing. Like wow. It definitely gives me a deeper understanding of how to say the Lord's prayer. Thanks a lot my sister. I'm so happy I found your channel. May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family.
This is confirmation to what God has been speaking to me about prayer. I literally been meditating on these verses for the past few weeks. I'm confident God will answer my requests. I have the Holy Spirit already😊 Thanks!
Yeeeeeeeeessssss!! HALLELUJAAAAHHHH!!!! I am SO grateful that you are walking and talking Acts 2:38!!! Jesus is so awesome because I was praying you were full of the Holy Ghost and would reveal that. It's important to be nourished by a Holy Spirit filled disciple!! Because it's ultimately God speaking through His instrument(s). Glory to God
Amen 💖 amen 💖 amen 🙏 amen Yes I believe you if you want to find God he's already in you you see to being with God he's in your heart you got it you got to let him into your heart and that's the only way you get to God and you got to express yourself be yourself be who you are and you find Christ you always been there waiting for you
I was just thinking about how i need to start studying Jesus' life more cause I've been focusing on other parts of the Bible and not the Gospel. This was meant for me. Thank you!!!! You are literally God Sent!!
I always pray everyday and it always felt like something was missing. Now I know that I'm not in the spirit!! If possible please pray for me that I be given the spirit. I want to know my Father! God bless you Alyssa for sharing!
Thank you for being such a sweetheart of Jesus. Whenever I watch your videos, I can always feel the energy and passion you have for God! Love you my sister in Christ! ❤️
I am so impressed by God's hand being at work through and on your life. You just crossed over in one video to being a minister of an online community, because you glorify God unashamedly. Lessons for me. I more often than not downplay things to others if I think they are not Christians rather than giving God the glory and being unabashed or unashamed. Please pray for the person behind this post. Thank you for your video.
Sister I love the way God is using you. You are really encouraging me to be myself in who Christ made me to be. Sometimes im nervous at work or meeting new people. I am growing out of people pleasing and adapting the wrong way. Im so excited to meet me as I grow closer to God through prayer!
Wow!!! What a powerful teaching!!! How wonderful He is in us. Hallelujah 🙌🏼 thank you sister for sharing with us what He gives to u. I have the HS and I kept seeing ur video as if I was suppose to watch. I prayed with you and in the Spirit was seeing people receiving the Holy Spirit and was crying with happiness. Can’t we just talk Jesus all day😄 God Bless
Love this!! I also speak in tongues and it really is edifying and encouraging that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us based on our Father God's will! It's amazing and such a wonderful gift from God to us. Nothing that we could ever deserve but only by His grace. Thanks for sharing and God bless you 💓
That excitement for The Holy Spirit >> all the way here for it! Good teaching because we NEED The Holy Spirit to pray the will of God. Which is so dope of God to make sure our prayers are refined and made sweet once reached to Heaven. Praying in The Spirit guarantees answered prayers
Thank you sooooooo much for this! 😢 I needed to hear this for reassurance that God is hearing my prayer. Blessings to you from Jamaica! God is good all the time!
Amen! I was taught growing up, when you want to pray for a specific thing, to pray and ask for it once and then after that you should continually thank Him in Advance as if you have already received it.. so it's still praying, but you're speaking it into existence through Faith. Anyway, I am a new subscriber, and I am so grateful to have stumbled across your video. May God continue to bless you!♡
So glad that your channel found me! Your content is amazing - it gives me so much inspiration to just bask in the glory of our Father & have a genuine relationship with HIM! God bless you 💕😭
Wow Alyssa thank you for this! There's a verse from Exodus 23:22 that tells us to get ourselves ready, that God is sending an angel ahead of us (the Holy Spirit) to get us to a land He has prepared for us. I wrote this verse down a year and a half ago and stuck it on my desk. Today while listening to you the Holy Spirit turned my focus to a post-it where I wrote that verse. It now makes all the sense girl! That angel is the Holy Spirit. He's with me and is leading me to a place God ordained for me. Wow, thank you lady for being a vessel and helping me understand...almost 2 years later haha. May God continue blessing and protecting you and your family. Love & light.
This was wonderful. I really enjoyed how you broke down the Lord’s Prayer teaching us how to pray. I have heard the break down before but in this video I have learned more. I thank God for using you to deliver His Word. God is sooo Good.
I feel like i received it WHILE YOU WERE PRAYING! Hallow The By Name!! IMMA SEEK GOD TODAY! Love your videos Glory to God for sending me you! Thank you Jesus. So grateful .
Friend....smh...I AM SOOO BLESSED BY THIS VIDEO AND CHANNEL!!! I pray in the holy spirit all the time. It's so refreshing to see a TH-camr as excited as i am about our ABBA, GLORY AND PRAISES BE UNTO THE MOST HIGH ELOHIM. I LOVE YOU AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Alyssa I have been watching your videos from the begging and every time you make a video it fits right into the situation I’m currently going threw it’s like gods speaking to me 😩😩😩❤️❤️❤️ thank you for following the lord
Enjoy your positive and godly spirit! Very encouraging and uplifting! Such an anointed message! Praying for you, your family, and your ministry! Cool closing tunes, too!
Your love for God literally just oozes out of you❤️ God’s hand is so evident on you ! Your videos are always so simple and spirit filled , love it!!! God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
Krisi Marovska it took me so long to get filled with the Spirit! But then I opened my mouth during worship to audibly praise God and it just came out! Don’t give up! Keep asking!
Krisi, I remember when I first wanted to be filled with the Holy Spirit and I was not sure how to go about it or what speaking in tongues would sound like. I really didn't know what to do, and a thought just came to my mind to pretend that I was speaking in a foreign language. That may sound sacrilegious but it got me started saying something and God honored it. It only took a few sentences and I realized that their was sentence structure to what I was saying. You will know if it is you or the Holy Spirit and you will find that you say things, complicated things, that you could not duplicate if you tried. You will also find that God will probably give you more than one language. In short, you will know that it is real and that it is not your own mind making pretend. For me there really was not emotion. I just decided I needed it and went for it. Krisi, all I can tell you is that the Holy Spirit is the best friend you will ever have and He will help and comfort you more than words can say. God bless you and see you in Heaven!
I also had to wait and pray for a couple months before speaking in tongues, which felt like forever, but it was so worth the wait! So keep praying and you won't regret it ❤️
I'm not able to pray in tongues, which dampens my prayer confidence quite a bit. I have asked for the gift of tongues more times than I can count, but... I feel like God is withholding something great from me, that I really need. I just want to pray without the enemy knowing what I am saying! 🙄
Beyond Blessed & Highly Favored the Bible says that the Holy Spirit gives gifts to who He desires. Meaning they are His gifts not ours. Some people have more than one gift in the Spirit but those gifts are to benefit the church. I do believe in the gift of speaking in tongues and the interpretation of Tongues. People can pray and praise in tongues and not always know what they’re saying. Isn’t it better to pray knowing that He already knows what you’re going to ask and that with His mighty love will give you all that you need! Ask for The Holy Spirit to always be with you, we are all entitled to His presence and influence as children of God! Concerning the enemy, don’t focus on the one who causes you to look to the storm like Peter did and sank in the water because he took his eyes off of Jesus. Focus on the God you know that will lead you away from and through the storm. And you can also pray in your mind. I hope this helps! 💕😊 God bless!
Don’t let the enemy make you feel “less than” because you don’t speak in tongues. Psalm 84:11 says the Lord is a sun and a shield. He gives grace and glory, and No good thing will he withhold from those who walk up rightly. Read the Word of God, and believe God for a move of His spirit.
You are beautiful inside and out. yes to speaking in tongues. you are so very bold and woke up the Holy Spirit in me tonight. Just what I needed. God bless you sister in Christ. xo
Amen sis!!! This was so needed in agreeance with everyone. We must ENTER prayer. God is so good! When we communicate with God within and KNOW Him, there's nothing like that intimacy ever. We are victorious and at peace. Our time with Him is everything.
Not at all too radical! Thank you for your obedience, your channel is suuuccchhh a blessing. You know God is using you. Keep going sis. Joined the Facebook fam!
I love this video! This is exactly what my devotion was about today: the praying and speaking in tongues. It was nothing but God sending me this video!
I had to pause this video to comment lol...thank you girl!!! Thank you so so so so much for making this video! You are answering so many of my questions. God is really using you as a vessel, and you are blessing so may people!!!
Thank you for that video! It was amazing and I was totally blessed. I would ask myself, why don't I pray like this person or I wished I prayed like that person and it dawned on me, the Holy Spirit was talking to me, to ask for help from the Holy Spirit. And I understand that some prosper have the gift of prayer, but when we seek Yahshua Messiah, and ask the spirit for His help we will pray effectively according to the will of God. So thank you again for remaining to ask God for the Holy Spirit and in doing so we can pray the will of God upon receiving Him.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!! Ive been struggling to get into the rhythm of praying and doing bible study but this video helped me alot!!! Im so grateful for your smile and words! You remind me how good god is thank you really I love you so much!!!

So timely! I literally just finished telling God that sometimes I hesitate asking for specific things because it seems that something unfavorable occurs in order for me to obtain it. But this reminded me that He keeps no good thing away from those who love Him. He's not going to give me something that will harm me. Thanks Alyssa for the reminder!
I am impressed from depression to this real joy may God help me to have this kind of joy i am looking for deeply
Oooh weee the Holy Spirit is where it's at! I love the Holy Spirit so much. He's my best friend and everything I come to know that holds any value is because of the Holy Spirit.
When you began praying for us at the end I felt filled with the spirit and I just want to thank you for being faithful to God and making this video! ❤️ God bless you and your beautiful family!
Estefany Perez I was also really encouraged! Praise God
Loved your video. I always wondered why Jesus said the Father would give us the Holy Spirit when He was speaking about fathers giving needful gifts to their children. It always seemed out of place. I did not realize that He was giving Him to help us to pray. What a revelation. I love praying in the Holy Spirit...He is like a kindred spirit and I love Him.
AMEN! I've felt the Holy Spirit before and I felt the Holy Spirit as you were praying! I pray that other people who watch this video also experience Him.
👑
He is the King of Kings
He is the Lord of Lords
His name is JESUS
A year later and watching this has helped me continue to prepare a Youth Bible Study on "Praying" 🙌🏼🙌🏼 God is Good
sister in christ don't stop❤😁
Love it!! Thank you Lord for your daughter. Keep pouring into her so she can pour into us, then fill her back up!!
Thank you for your boldness. God bless you. More videos like this.
And there goes my answer 😌
I've been wanting to know how to pray with boldness then boom...
Jesus really works through you
Hello Alyssa I love your videos I'm a Christian and following hard after God. May God continue to bless you😊😊.
I receive the Holy Spirit! In the name of Jesus!
I thank you so much for this video sis! Literally this morning I was reading the part in John when Jesus prayed for the disciples and all future Christians before being betrayed and I was just in awe of how beautiful His prayer was. Last July I received the Holy Spirit and it has been a wildd ride! LOL. Speaking in tongues is something I do, but am very apprehensive for others to witness. This past month in my prayer life there have been many moments where I go to pray and not a word of English comes out, and I was asking the Lord why is this happening? When you started praying in tongues I literally said out loud "i'm not alone!". I immediately began to start praying myself. The Holy Spirit is a treasure from the kingdom of Heaven. Don't stop what you are doing it is truly inspirational! You are unashamed and unafraid, it's amazing.
I just found your channel about an hour ago and I've been catching up on all your videos, crying and resubmitting myself to God 🙌🏾
I'm So happy I found you . May God continue to bless you and your family .
Wow! Praise God!!! Thank you so much, Shanice. And thank you for watching. God bless you, sis!!!
Praise the Lord 🙏🏽
Amen.🙏
NO...not at all too radical for me. You Alyssa are such a breath of fresh air. I've been crying out to GOD for true Fellowshipping connections so that I can be obedient to HIM particularly in that, and he connected me with your VLOG, which is right in line with what I've been Studying. THANKS FOR THE CONFIRMATION. MANY BLESSINGS TO YOU, YOUR HUSBAND, AND YOUR PRECIOUS LIL' GLORY. 💙💖💖
Thank you so much for this video. It encouraged me to be persistent in my prayer and reminded me about the intimacy of calling God my Father. When we think of the characteristic of what a father is called to be, it makes it that much more easier to believe that you will recieve what you are praying for. It also makes you feel safe. And not only all of that, but when you think of the fact that God is not like man, and that He is the great I am and can do exceedingly, abundantly, above all we can ask or think, it helps our unbelief and increases our faith that our father God wants to do and will do what's best for us, and that He loves. And for those of us that have not had the best examples of what a father is, draw closer to God, pray and read His word and He will show you what that means and He will help you to forgive your Earthly father. Anyway, thank you so much for sharing this video and not cutting it short. It truly blessed me and I am sure that it has and will bless many others.
YOUR will be done Abba!
GIIIIRRRRLLLL U BETTA PRAY IN TONGUES ON YOUR TH-cam VIDEO!! YASSSS!! GOD BE GLORIFIED 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Yes, this video is amazing. Like wow. It definitely gives me a deeper understanding of how to say the Lord's prayer. Thanks a lot my sister. I'm so happy I found your channel. May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family.
I always wondered if I should just pray once and have faith too. Great video. Very relatable and much needed ☺️☺️🙌🏽
This is confirmation to what God has been speaking to me about prayer. I literally been meditating on these verses for the past few weeks. I'm confident God will answer my requests. I have the Holy Spirit already😊 Thanks!
Yes God will come through for you! I pray that he gives you strength in the waiting process
Yeeeeeeeeessssss!! HALLELUJAAAAHHHH!!!! I am SO grateful that you are walking and talking Acts 2:38!!! Jesus is so awesome because I was praying you were full of the Holy Ghost and would reveal that. It's important to be nourished by a Holy Spirit filled disciple!! Because it's ultimately God speaking through His instrument(s). Glory to God
Every time I watch your video it really brings me to a place I can’t even explain crying with tears of joy.
Amen 💖 amen 💖 amen 🙏 amen
Yes I believe you if you want to find God he's already in you you see to being with God he's in your heart you got it you got to let him into your heart and that's the only way you get to God and you got to express yourself be yourself be who you are and you find Christ you always been there waiting for you
I was just thinking about how i need to start studying Jesus' life more cause I've been focusing on other parts of the Bible and not the Gospel. This was meant for me. Thank you!!!! You are literally God Sent!!
God bless you Alyssa! May God continue to speak through you, this was amazing, pure truth 🙌🏾
Thank you Jesus that I watch this today 👏🏼🙌🏼😊 Praise be to God in the highest 🙌🏼 I’ve been so blessed and the lord answered my prayers 🙏🏼❤️
I always pray everyday and it always felt like something was missing. Now I know that I'm not in the spirit!! If possible please pray for me that I be given the spirit. I want to know my Father! God bless you Alyssa for sharing!
You are so bubbly and annoited I normally don't watch long videos but I watched this to the very end.
Thank you for being such a sweetheart of Jesus. Whenever I watch your videos, I can always feel the energy and passion you have for God! Love you my sister in Christ! ❤️
🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿. Love this. Shameless Audacity. Praying for the Holy Spirit.
I am so impressed by God's hand being at work through and on your life. You just crossed over in one video to being a minister of an online community, because you glorify God unashamedly. Lessons for me. I more often than not downplay things to others if I think they are not Christians rather than giving God the glory and being unabashed or unashamed. Please pray for the person behind this post. Thank you for your video.
Sister I love the way God is using you. You are really encouraging me to be myself in who Christ made me to be. Sometimes im nervous at work or meeting new people. I am growing out of people pleasing and adapting the wrong way. Im so excited to meet me as I grow closer to God through prayer!
Wow!!! What a powerful teaching!!! How wonderful He is in us. Hallelujah 🙌🏼 thank you sister for sharing with us what He gives to u. I have the HS and I kept seeing ur video as if I was suppose to watch. I prayed with you and in the Spirit was seeing people receiving the Holy Spirit and was crying with happiness. Can’t we just talk Jesus all day😄 God Bless
👏🏽You NEED the Holy Spirit to pray! 👏🏽 Yassssss
Love this!! I also speak in tongues and it really is edifying and encouraging that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us based on our Father God's will! It's amazing and such a wonderful gift from God to us. Nothing that we could ever deserve but only by His grace. Thanks for sharing and God bless you 💓
That excitement for The Holy Spirit >> all the way here for it! Good teaching because we NEED The Holy Spirit to pray the will of God. Which is so dope of God to make sure our prayers are refined and made sweet once reached to Heaven. Praying in The Spirit guarantees answered prayers
Thank you sooooooo much for this! 😢 I needed to hear this for reassurance that God is hearing my prayer. Blessings to you from Jamaica! God is good all the time!
Amen! I was taught growing up, when you want to pray for a specific thing, to pray and ask for it once and then after that you should continually thank Him in Advance as if you have already received it.. so it's still praying, but you're speaking it into existence through Faith.
Anyway, I am a new subscriber, and I am so grateful to have stumbled across your video. May God continue to bless you!♡
Thankful for this message! Sometimes I think we all need a reminder about how to pray even if we think we know already. Appreciate your authenticity
Yess amen!! He’s a good good Father 💙
Hallelujah Thank You Jesus Amen 🙌
What a blessing omg! Please do a next series on the Holy Spirit
Haven't even watched this yet but what a beautiful little girl!!! Blessings xxx
So glad that your channel found me! Your content is amazing - it gives me so much inspiration to just bask in the glory of our Father & have a genuine relationship with HIM! God bless you 💕😭
Denequa Perry Amen, praise God
Wow Alyssa thank you for this! There's a verse from Exodus 23:22 that tells us to get ourselves ready, that God is sending an angel ahead of us (the Holy Spirit) to get us to a land He has prepared for us. I wrote this verse down a year and a half ago and stuck it on my desk. Today while listening to you the Holy Spirit turned my focus to a post-it where I wrote that verse. It now makes all the sense girl! That angel is the Holy Spirit. He's with me and is leading me to a place God ordained for me. Wow, thank you lady for being a vessel and helping me understand...almost 2 years later haha. May God continue blessing and protecting you and your family. Love & light.
My friend told me that you remind her of me lol after watching you I can say I’ve never received such a greater compliment :D
dottiEpre That is a really good compliment!
I desired this... calling in my heart.
This was wonderful. I really enjoyed how you broke down the Lord’s Prayer teaching us how to pray. I have heard the break down before but in this video I have learned more. I thank God for using you to deliver His Word. God is sooo Good.
I feel like i received it WHILE YOU WERE PRAYING! Hallow The By Name!! IMMA SEEK GOD TODAY! Love your videos Glory to God for sending me you! Thank you Jesus. So grateful .
Thank you for this video, at first i wasn't going to watch then i ended up watching it twice, thats how impactful it was, thank you!
Girl,
I Absolutely Love The God In You!
You are SUCH an encouragement to me, sister. God bless you and what He’s doing through you ❤️
Friend....smh...I AM SOOO BLESSED BY THIS VIDEO AND CHANNEL!!! I pray in the holy spirit all the time. It's so refreshing to see a TH-camr as excited as i am about our ABBA, GLORY AND PRAISES BE UNTO THE MOST HIGH ELOHIM. I LOVE YOU AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Alyssa I have been watching your videos from the begging and every time you make a video it fits right into the situation I’m currently going threw it’s like gods speaking to me 😩😩😩❤️❤️❤️ thank you for following the lord
Enjoy your positive and godly spirit! Very encouraging and uplifting! Such an anointed message! Praying for you, your family, and your ministry! Cool closing tunes, too!
Your love for God literally just oozes out of you❤️ God’s hand is so evident on you ! Your videos are always so simple and spirit filled , love it!!! God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
I needed that video❤
I still can't pray in toungs, but i believe that God will take care of that
Krisi Marovska it took me so long to get filled with the Spirit! But then I opened my mouth during worship to audibly praise God and it just came out! Don’t give up! Keep asking!
Savannah Lewie Thanks for the encouragement, love your channel
Same!
Krisi, I remember when I first wanted to be filled with the Holy Spirit and I was not sure how to go about it or what speaking in tongues would sound like. I really didn't know what to do, and a thought just came to my mind to pretend that I was speaking in a foreign language. That may sound sacrilegious but it got me started saying something and God honored it. It only took a few sentences and I realized that their was sentence structure to what I was saying. You will know if it is you or the Holy Spirit and you will find that you say things, complicated things, that you could not duplicate if you tried. You will also find that God will probably give you more than one language. In short, you will know that it is real and that it is not your own mind making pretend. For me there really was not emotion. I just decided I needed it and went for it. Krisi, all I can tell you is that the Holy Spirit is the best friend you will ever have and He will help and comfort you more than words can say. God bless you and see you in Heaven!
I also had to wait and pray for a couple months before speaking in tongues, which felt like forever, but it was so worth the wait! So keep praying and you won't regret it ❤️
This video gave me chills!! You are a wonderful ambassador for Christ!! Thank you so much!
so beautiful! what even more wow is that i started praying with the Holy Spirit before you even spoke about the Holy Spirit! God is good!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not able to pray in tongues, which dampens my prayer confidence quite a bit.
I have asked for the gift of tongues more times than I can count, but...
I feel like God is withholding something great from me, that I really need. I just want to pray without the enemy knowing what I am saying! 🙄
Beyond Blessed & Highly Favored the Bible says that the Holy Spirit gives gifts to who He desires. Meaning they are His gifts not ours. Some people have more than one gift in the Spirit but those gifts are to benefit the church. I do believe in the gift of speaking in tongues and the interpretation of Tongues. People can pray and praise in tongues and not always know what they’re saying. Isn’t it better to pray knowing that He already knows what you’re going to ask and that with His mighty love will give you all that you need! Ask for The Holy Spirit to always be with you, we are all entitled to His presence and influence as children of God! Concerning the enemy, don’t focus on the one who causes you to look to the storm like Peter did and sank in the water because he took his eyes off of Jesus. Focus on the God you know that will lead you away from and through the storm. And you can also pray in your mind. I hope this helps! 💕😊 God bless!
Jessenia Sanchez Thank you for taking the time to respond x
Don’t let the enemy make you feel “less than” because you don’t speak in tongues. Psalm 84:11 says the Lord is a sun and a shield. He gives grace and glory, and No good thing will he withhold from those who walk up rightly. Read the Word of God, and believe God for a move of His spirit.
Would love love love if you did a TH-cam live!!! Can’t get enough of your Holy Spirit inspired messages!! All the love! 💓💓
Lydia.
Thank you so much!!!!! I love you sister thank you Glory to Jesus lord on high!!!!! King of kings!!!!💖💞
i want to experience God in a close loving way💛
Thank you for this message, now I can 'UP' my prayer request and not feel bad. I also have to remember that GOD helps those, who help themselves.
I love this! Great in depth message ❤️ keep pressing!
Yes Hallelujah 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 thank you Lord ❤️
I was praying with you in tongues! Amen!!! HALLELUJAH!!!
Wow Amen!,😇 God bless you! 😇
You are beautiful inside and out. yes to speaking in tongues. you are so very bold and woke up the Holy Spirit in me tonight. Just what I needed. God bless you sister in Christ. xo
Amen sis!!! This was so needed in agreeance with everyone. We must ENTER prayer. God is so good! When we communicate with God within and KNOW Him, there's nothing like that intimacy ever. We are victorious and at peace. Our time with Him is everything.
WHOA!!! 🔥 🔥 😍 I am completely in love with your heart for God and your desire to build his kingdom. This video was amaaaaaazing
Not at all too radical! Thank you for your obedience, your channel is suuuccchhh a blessing. You know God is using you. Keep going sis. Joined the Facebook fam!
Love your extremely positive, bold, forward-moving, chasing-after-God spirit! Keep on keeping on!
And your energy 🙏❤️ God bless you and your family
One of the most beautiful videos and teachings I've ever seen in my life! THANK YOU MY SISTER
I love the message! Thanks girl, watching from Fiji 😊 God is so awesome and he will never leave nor forsake us🙌
Not too radical at all, thank you, in making seeking the Holy Spirit my main priority for the end of 2018, beginning today!!
Thank you sister Alyssa! God is so amazing! Glory be to God!😍❤️
Thank you sister god bless you Yes god is good keep me in your prayers I love you god bless you and your beautiful family 😘
I love this video! This is exactly what my devotion was about today: the praying and speaking in tongues. It was nothing but God sending me this video!
I had to pause this video to comment lol...thank you girl!!! Thank you so so so so much for making this video! You are answering so many of my questions. God is really using you as a vessel, and you are blessing so may people!!!
Thank you for that video! It was amazing and I was totally blessed. I would ask myself, why don't I pray like this person or I wished I prayed like that person and it dawned on me, the Holy Spirit was talking to me, to ask for help from the Holy Spirit. And I understand that some prosper have the gift of prayer, but when we seek Yahshua Messiah, and ask the spirit for His help we will pray effectively according to the will of God. So thank you again for remaining to ask God for the Holy Spirit and in doing so we can pray the will of God upon receiving Him.
God bless you sis! Thank you for this video
I love you with Christ love sis! I see Gods glory all in you girl! Lord bless your ministry amen!
I love this channel so much!!!!! Watching as I get ready for Sunday school!! 😊
