- It's one of the most untapped cheat codes in the Kingdom -- but it's also one of the most misunderstood. What does it truly mean to pray in the spirit? Where does it talk about tongues in the Bible? And by using it, how can we partner with the Holy Spirit to fight our enemy on a whole other level?

This message challenged me and convicted me of mocking the language of the spirit. What a gift, we have been given. This opened my eyes to view it afresh. Thank you so much Pastor Preston. May God keep and bless you and your family.
This message was designed so perfectly by Holy Spirit you feel Gods presence and it’s beautiful .. “ your job is to provide a yielded heart and submitted mind “ Thank you so much for sharing this message
This has enlightened me about my gift. I only speak it in private or it comes out during worship time at church. It’s so loud that no one can hear me.
I’m afraid to listen to this because I always feel like something is wrong with me and Gods just choosing not to give me the gift of tongues. I’ve been a follower of Christ for 15 years and have prayed for it many times over the years.
I know what you mean. Been a Christian for over 30 years. But I have begun asking the Holy Spirit to draw near and to teach me what I need to know. I have committed to staying in a place of desiring this gift and trying to trust the process
I grew up always hearing people speak in tongues at church but was never taught how or why we do. This message was beyond helpful. I’m going to read those books you recommended. Thank you, big brother!
The best explanation of praying in tongues i ever heard!
Thank you for this message! I grew up in a denomination that didn’t understand praying in tongues and because of that I never understood it. Knowledge really is power. I have been asking the Holy Spirit for this gift and I let him take full control over my tongue today. It was confusing but beautiful. I am so excited to start this journey of praying on another level to my Father. This Holy Spirit series has really touched me.
No words... this sermon/teaching is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣
Thank you once again Pastor Preston! I believe this message helped me begin speaking in tongues for the first time today! I’m so grateful for your obedience; allowing Holy Spirit to continue to use you to serve and speak to so many like myself. I pray He continues to do so. I pray GOD continues to bless you, your family, your loved ones and the entire Pillar Church Family!
THANK YOU PRESTON! I had an encounter with the Holy Spirit one morning praying. I was praying by myself but lost some words and suddenly a language that I never spoke before came and every time I tried to speak English the heavenly language came more rapid and louder. I cried because I knew it was the Holy Spirit ! It was an encounter I will never forget. It was gift I did not desire but have since welcomed it into my daily prayer life.
Thank you Pastor Preston!
I used to have a lot of opinions around praying in a heavenly language. But when I yielded my opinions and my tongue to the Spirit a few years ago, it was transformational. What happened in my heart and my mind and how it truly strengthened me and awakened other giftings and strengths within me is undeniable.
I desire to experience speaking in a heavenly language. I've never done it before. I think it's a mental block and I don't know how to get past it. I will continue to pray. This series has helped deepen my relationship with the Holy Spirit. I look forward to him becoming my best friend 🙏🏽
I came across this video today, just a day after my Pastor gave a message on speaking with other tongues. And I got to say I have been encouraged be this message as well... I thank God for you, man of God.
I speak in tounges throughout the day, to God silently usually but i need to do it louder more often so Satan can here.
Wow! Thank you Pastor Preston! This was the most powerful message I have ever heard on the speaking of tongues! You explained it so well. I do speak in tongues that Heavenly language I got when an evangelist came to town and also led me to Jesus. But like you said most don't really understand and the way I have heard from some preaching I can see why. Thank you again! 🙏❤
I love that he compared it to the protein intake. My brother was just telling me how much all of my working out means nothing if I don’t start taking in more protein. Such a great comparison! I get it! 😂
This message WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD! Best I’ve heard it taught!
what an incredibly powerful message…….perfectly positioned for our consumption. Thank you so much for yielding to the Spirit for those words. They are going to be life changing! and the prayer at the end…….thank you so much. I am listening from Hampton Roads, VA and worship here at a local church, but look forward to your teachings weekly!!! LOVE YOU BROTHER!!!
In the past year, I have seen people proclaim they have these gifts but attempt to shut others down which has drawn me away from seeking this gift. Thank you for this message as while I spend most of my day in prayer for my family, clients, and community, I feel that I am falling short of God’s will or anointing for my life. I was guided to this message for a reason this morning and I am grateful to take another step closer to what eternity with Him holds!
My God! He used you on this one for sure!! The presentation of this sermon was so beautiful!! I've been really wrestling with this topic. I've seen it turned into a mockery and I wanted to stay far away from that to the point that I have created a block in my mind about it. My prayer is that God tears that block down and I would appreciate it if y'all would join me in that prayer as well. I'm sure that's😊 the piece I've been feeling I'm missing. Thank you for this message! 🧡

Thank you Lord for this message. I am seeking to have this deeper relationship with the Lord. God continues to put people, sermons, podcasts and books in my path that confirm His will in this for my life. I raised my hand at the end and will be seeking to learn this new language in the days and weeks to come. I thank God for you and your ministry.
I am in agreement with your note. Preston is such a gifted speaker and God led me to his ministry online. He has become my Monday sermon. If you like Preston you will also like his twin Tim Ross. They both are amazing nerds for the kingdom!!!!
@@joettalueckeman6779tim ross is such an amazing person. so much love and gratitude for him ♥️♥️♥️
Wow Preston you hit it right on the spot when you said when we were children we used to have our secret language and now as adults we don’t. Even earlier in the message I was thinking when I was a child and I have my own language when I was playing with dolls. And the Holy Spirit answered…
I had someone pray for me in tounge. I felt so uncomfortable, it sounded like a snake or something and I have horrifc sleep every since. I couldn't even pick up the words to check them in a translator. Deffo sticking with 1 Corinthians 14 when it comes to Church. 😂
Pastor Morrison, what are the names of other sermon’s you have preached on praying in tongues? this message was inspirational and provided with me with so much more perspective. I’d love to hear more from you. I also ordered the book by your mentor.
Can someone link the books on this topic Preston references? I think there were 3 he mentioned.
Missed you Brother. Seems like we haven’t talked in awhile. Know you must have needed a break.
Thanks for the love. I’ll take a break a little this summer to refill the tank, do some writing, and love on my family without carrying the weight of living on God’s family.
So what does this mean for us who haven’t received this yet where do it leave us🤔
No differently AT ALL. Nobody is LESS than or MORE than. I think that’s the danger of thinking everybody has to be in the exact same place at the exact same time. Like with any message I teach, the goal for every hearer is to say, ”God, what do you want me to do with this?”
@@prestonmorrison4094 thank you for the response and that’s is in my prayers and heart tonight ‼️‼️🫂
There is absolutely nothing mysterious about Biblical "tongues" - and there is only *one* type - when referring to something spoken, they are nothing more than real, rational language(s); usually, but not always, unknown to those listening to them, but always known by the speaker(s) - it’s their native language (in some cases, it is a language the speaker has learned).
_Nowhere_ in the Bible is modern tongues-speech advocated or evidenced.
‘Tongues’ (read, *‘languages’* ) - the divine gift, is the God/Holy Spirit given ability to effortlessly learn to speak and be understood through real-language barriers. It is not xenoglossy (as many people incorrectly assume), nor is it the self-created non-cognitive non-language utterance of what certain Christian denominations are producing today (modern tongues-speech).
Absolutely LOVE your perspective. In the same way you don’t have the perspective I have, I don’t have the perspective you have. I have MANY A friend who sees it the way you do and I LOVE them and learn from them. Just see these passages through a different lens.
I SO appreciate you sharing your perspective of Scripture!!!
Why would you ask Alejandro permission to pray for him when you’re being led by the spirit? I don’t agree with this statement. The only permission you need is God’s and he already gave it to you by giving you full access to the Holy Spirit.
It shows respect for him. Not saying everyone has to have that as a rule. We do at our church out of respect for people who may have different perspectives on Scripture.
I think he could still pray for him and speak in tongues for him privately but Pastor Preston might have talking out praying WITH him. That might be awkward if someone started speaking in tongues over you all of a sudden? Idk that's what got from scenario I think. I need to listen again
It is good wisdom to do simple teaching if it is someone new so that if they are not acquainted with tongues they are put at ease when it happens.
My problem with the claim of speaking in tongues is that scripture clearly states that they should be interpreted. This means that it can be understood. There is no scriptural evidence for a language coming out of you that you can’t understand. At that point it is just babble speech.
I want to clarify that I’m not a cessationist. I also still love Preston and believe he has a lot of spiritual wisdom. This is just something that I believe hurts the church more than helps. Babble speech is just a placebo. I grew up in charismatic churches, so it’s not like I’m just an outsider speaking on something that I didn’t experience. Jesus only prayed in known language. When asked how to pray Jesus didn’t mention any sort of prayer language. Only a reach of interpretation of Paul’s words have people believing the lie that there is a secret language that we can’t understand.
Love your perspective. 1 Cor 14 covers both corporate use AND private use. Paul saying he would rather use words people understand in public, shows what he prefers in private. He also makes clear that a believer is personally strengthened when praying in tongues.
LOVE the way you’re trying to approach the conversation.
Also, Romans 8:26 covers the “babble”.
I feel like we’re interpreting different things from the same scripture though. When I read Romans 8:26-27 I see “too deep for words” as meaning that it’s too great to describe. It doesn’t say “too deep for human words” so even if there were a language of heaven then shouldn’t it be too deep for those words as well?
I’m also seeing explanation in 1 Corinthians 14:21 that shows that “tongues” is clearly speaking about the different languages of men.
Totally get where you’re coming from. I’m connecting what Paul is talking about in Ro 8:26 to what Paul refers to in 1 Cor 13:1.
1 Corinthians 13:1 is the closest scripture to backing up the idea of a heavenly language. I would argue against that though. I would argue that Paul is just making a statement based on traditional cultural beliefs at that time. In the 1st century it was common belief that angels had their own languages just like humans did. For Paul to use the words “tongues of men and of angels” is simply covering all known languages, and not some sort of secret language. God is not the author of confusion. Why would He confuse us with a language that we can’t understand? The gift of tongues was actually the opposite. It was reversing the confusion of languages that happened at Babel. It was bringing understanding to something that was previously confused.
A lot of how he feels but lacking any scripture. KNOWN LANGUAGES not gibberish. There is nothing said about a heavenly language in the Bible. Pagans, Hindus, muslims and Satanist also speak in gibberish “tongues”
1 Corinthians 13:1 doesn’t count? 😂 It was never known languages after Pentecost even for the Apostle Paul…that’s why he referred to it as “praying without understanding”. Feels a little strong to put me in a camp with pagans and Satanists but I get where you’re coming from. 😂😂
@@prestonmorrison4094 1 Corinthians 13:1 Paul is writing hyperbolically. This current day church tongues phenomenon is relatively new starting in 1906 with Azusa Street Revival, none of the early church fathers EVER wrote about it. Gifts are to edify the body not yourself. Pray with understanding not mindless repetition. If you don’t know what to pray, Jesus told us to pray the Lord’s Prayer…
@@darlingpatriot3133 what do you feel 1 Corinthians 14:4 means then?
1 Corinthians 14:4 (NKJV): He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself
@@prestonmorrison4094 1 corinthians 14:4 is a derogatory statement. The point is being made that prophecy is greater and edifies the body. The one who speaks in a tongue *known language* only edifies himself. He doesn’t know the language he’s speaking and no one else knows that language either, except God.
@@darlingpatriot3133LOVE the conversation!
I don’t believe Paul meant those words in a derogatory manner in any way based on what he says in verses like this…
1 Corinthians 14:18 (NLT): I thank God that I speak in tongues more than any of you.
Thoughts?
