Tap Into the Mind of the Spirit
Most believers don't realize it, but praying in the spirit or praying in other tongues, is a spiritual exercise that strengthens your inner man. Just like barbell build up your arms, praying in tongues will build up your spirit. If you'll do it faithfully, it will help to keep that flesh body of yours in line.
"Well Gloria," you may ask, "why can't I just do that praying in my native language?"
Because the Bible says your "weakness" gets in the way. Many times your natural mind doesn't have the first idea how to say prayer that will strengthen you against temptations or bring the answer you need.
Your mind is not informed like your spirit is. Your spirit is in contact with God. That's why, as Romans 8:26-27 says, the Holy Spirit comes to our aid because we do not know how to pray as we ought.
Praying in tongues enables you to pray the perfect will of God for your life. It allows you to step out of the realm of the flesh and into the realm of the spirit so that no matter how weak or ignorant you may be in the natural, you can pray exactly what you need.
Praying in tongues is the tool God has given us to tap into the mind of the Spirit. When we pray in tongues, we activate our Spirit to understand as the Holy Spirit enlightens us.
But be warned, it won't work for you unless you put it to work. The Holy Spirit is a gentleman. He's not going to come storming in and make you pray in the spirit. He's going to wait for you to put your will in gear.
So yield to the Holy Spirit today. Begin to pray in tongues every day and build yourself up. Tap into the mind of the Spirit. You'll be blessed to have the strength, ability and answers you need for every situation!
