THE MINISTERS CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL TOPIC: SPEAKING IN TONGUES TEXT: And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues. Mark 16:17 INTRODUCTION: When you are adopted and become the citizen of heaven, you must endeavor to speak in the language of such citizens. Christ said, those who believe in Him shall speak in tongues. QUESTIONS/DISCUSSIONS 1.     THE NEW TONGUES: when Jesus said ‘new tongues’, he was referring to tongues not known to man irrespective of his tribe, tongues can can’t be learned like we learn the tongues of men . 2.     THE BENEFITS OF TONGUES IS FOR EVERY BELEIVER: your spirit speaks directly to God (2 Cor. 14:2,14), pray according to God’s will (Rom. 8:27), self edification (2Cor 14:4,18), your faith is built (Jude 20) 3.     SHOULD ALL SPEAK IN TONGUES? 1Cor 12:30 has confused many to believe that all shouldn’t speak in tongues, the reason being that they forget to understan

Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 2 Timothy 2:22 A   man was burnt to death by the very fire he triggered. His son reported that his father wanted to set a little controlled fire that will warm him but the fire went out of control because all his surroundings were filled with dry leaves. So when the wind blew the fire spread and he was eventually caught in it. Similar things are the story of most of the people that fell into sexual sin that I have counseled, they just wanted a little petting, a modest touch, holding hands, a nice compliment etc. nothing extreme but they ended up been violated. Our world is filled with dry leaves, avoid whatsoever that will set it on fire even when you intend setting little fire because it will extent to an inferno. One danger about sex is that once you have it for the first time, you may find it hard to resist the temptation of having it again and

THE WORKING OF GRACE Grace is free but not cheap, those who had been ‘en-graced’ weren’t idle with their lives; they didn’t just have results in multiples. Though they got it free but with wasn’t cheap. Grace enables you to live by God’s word and thus get results according to God’s word and not according to the efforts you put but that which Christ has put for you. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.  Rom. 8:18 You are hungry but you have to seed then grace will multiple your harvest in such away you can compare with the seed sown. You are seeking first the kingdom of God, assisting with the evangelism when there is barely what to eat in your kitchen then grace will give you access into so much of God’s blessings that you won’t be able to compare the sacrifices you’ve made while putting God first. This is Grace, a boy gave Christ His 5 loaves and 2 fishes then God gave him 1

7 Benefits of Tongues John Hurston, Ph.D. Ever wonder why having a prayer language is important? Here are good reasons to use one. 1. You know your spirit is speaking directly to God. The Bible tells us, "For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God … for if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays" (1 Cor. 14:2,14, NKJV). Praying in tongues can also be like a two-way street. When you pray in tongues, God will often give you wisdom and insight to see better ways of doing what you need to do. 2. You know you are praying according to the will of God. The Holy Spirit "makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God" (Rom. 8:27). You may often be tempted to pray for what you want, but when you speak in tongues, you are instead praying God's will. This is important, for the tongue has great power, as Solomon pointed out: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue" (Prov. 18:21). 3. You bring your tongue into subjection t

THE MYSTERIES OF TONQUES And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues. Mark 16:17 One of the ways Christ said we shall identify those who believes in Him is that they’ll speak with new tongues. New tongues not an existing tongues or one of the tongues of men but entirely new to man and it would sound like babbling to the carnal mind.
