PRAYING IN TONGUES IS KEY


But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit (Jude 1 : 20 AMPC).


PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 


If you desire to improve yourself and operate at a higher level of spiritual maturity and efficacy, the Scripture tells you what to do: pray in tongues often. This will work for any area in which you desire to make tremendous progress and take giant strides, be it in your health, academics, jobs, business, or finances.


Even in contending for the souls of men, or interceding for those who have issues understanding the Word, or those who're dull in the things of the Spirit, praying in tongues is key! When you pray in tongues, the Holy Spirit gives you insight and specific guidance that you need to deal with the situation. You'd be able to discern whether you have said enough or if there is more to be said or done.


Also, in praying in tongues, learn to wait on the Lord, because what you need above all is direction—direction during or after the prayer. Sometimes, you may pray for a long time and experience spiritual changes, but no tangible changes manifest in the physical realm. Why? There may be specific actions or steps to be taken that you haven't accessed or discerned.


The Bible says, "The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant" (Psalm 25:14). So, the secret is kept for you. But if you don't access that secret and apply it to the specific situation, the situation may remain unchanged.


If you want to see amazing results and changes in your life and circumstances, speak in other tongues. You'll also be guided with the wisdom to know you've received the answers.


          CONFESSION


As I spend quality time to pray in tongues today, I'm improved, built up and edified; I operate at a new level of spiritual maturity and efficiency. I make tremendous progress and take giant strides in every area of my life. I'm sensitive to the leading of the Spirit, attentive to His prompting and signals, as I follow His guidance wholeheartedly, in Jesus' Name. Amen.


FURTHER STUDY:

1 Corinthians 14:2 AMPC; For one who speaks in an [unknown] tongue speaks not to men but to God, for no one understands or catches his meaning, because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things [not obvious to the understanding].


1 Corinthians 14:18;  I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:


Jude 1:20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
