Praying in the spirit, going into our secret place, closing the door, and being in the presence of God. Letting Go and letting the Holy Spirit flow in words we cannot understand & also talking sentences we do understand. Trusting that God will hear us and answer our peayers. Amen 😊

Thank you, Teacher and Pastor John, for your anointed and solid, as well as Scriptural and gracious teaching.

Yes indeed and it is absolutely Biblical. But unfortunately, many great and renowned Christian Ministers like Dr. John Piper just wouldn't believe/accept this TRUTH. 😩 (probably lacking in faith in "speaking in tongues") Hence, they would interpret, rephrase or even change the original illustrations and meanings of Paul's words, trying to explain away Paul's original preaching on TONGUES...like claiming "speaking of tongues has already ceased etc. 😮

My Bible says… when I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays but my understanding is unfruitful. So it is tongues. Why do so many people resist this?

K but prayers that are fully guided by the spirit is literally what praying in tongues is. They are indeed the same thing

Thanks for this msg . I had been seeking answer bc a few ppl had been recommending To “ pray in the spirit” and i asked how can I if Lord hasn’t loosed my tongues yet? I thought I was raised to pray the Lord’s Prayer when I didn’t know what to pray. This msg and a few of the comments helps with clarification. Thank you

Furthermore we must recognise that it is not ‘the Spirit “ but accurately God Holy Spirit. He is God. He is creator. He is All in All God. He is the fullness of God. Jehovah. Almighty God! Spiritual accuracy is warranted in the Body of Christ. 🙏🏾

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26 HOW ABOUT THIS VERSE ???Anybody could explain this verse please??thank u

Can you pray for my grey jackapoo dog mushy he’s on a life support ventilator - wear referrals , County Durham - in Jesus name we ask he is healed - ThankYou

Notice Eph 6:17-18 "17sword of the spirit the word of God" "18praying always ... in the spirit". I take this to mean take up the word of God in our prayers is praying in the Spirit, or to put it another way, to pray the word of God is praying in the Spirit.

Holy Spirit guides me to pray unceasingly.

I agree that we don’t have to pray in tongues to pray in the spirit. I believe praying in the spirit is just spirit led prayer. I think as believers when we pray, we assume our prayers are effective just bc we are praying. But sometimes we pray soulish prayers and are not praying accordingly to the will of God. Those prayers are virtually useless. But if we pray led by the Spirit, we are praying accordingly to his will and according to what is needed at that moment, our prayers are therefore heard and answered. Praying in tongues is obviously spirit led prayer but everyone doesn’t pray in tongues and you don’t have to to pray effective prayers. Your prayers just have to be with the Spirits assistance and not in your flesh.

Pastor John can you please elaborate and enlightened me on this verse also concerning about praying in spirit; JOHN 4: 24

Justice

Prays in the Spirit is to let the Holy Spirit pray. We are to yield to the Holy Spirit and pray according to the God's will. In other words, pray in the Spirit is to pray in tongues for those who speak in tongues with our mind is unfruitful. For those who don't speak in tongue we have to pray what the Holy Spirit asks you to pray.

Thanks so much for this .. I have a question though in 1 Corinthians 14:13-19 "3 For this reason the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that they may interpret what they say. 14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. 15 So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding. 16 Otherwise when you are praising God in the Spirit, how can someone else, who is now put in the position of an inquirer,[d] say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since they do not know what you are saying? 17 You are giving thanks well enough, but no one else is edified. 18 I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you. 19 But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue." it seems here that "in the Spirit" in this context refers to tongues ... i wonder if anyone else has a different take on this..
