Tongues & The Mysteries of God

December 17, 2023 • Chad Everett - Lead Pastor • John 16:13–15, Acts 2:1–21, 1 Corinthians 14:1–19, 1 Corinthians 2:6–14, Matthew 16:13–18

According to Jesus, Holy Spirit came to # 1 Guide us into all truth and # 2 Take of what is Jesus' and declare it to us.

When we pray in the spirit/in tongues, we are downloading and speaking the hidden wisdom and mysteries of God, as Holy Spirit hears them from the Father and the Son and declares them to us. So, when we pray in tongues, Holy Spirit is communicating things we cannot know in the natural. It's our spirit talking to God to know what the Father and Jesus are saying.

It's the season of gift-giving, and there is a gift, according to the Bible that Jesus wants to give ALL of us. HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS GIFT? WILL WE RECEIVE IT? There is a baptism in Holy Spirit that Jesus wants to give you. It's free! It is an invitation to receive more of what Jesus wants to give you. 13 And he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, ‘Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter, 14 who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.’ 15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning. 16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, ‘John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’ 17 If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?” 18 When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.” Acts 11:13-18 NKJV

They were ALL with ONE ACCORD. In ONE PLACE for 7 to 10 days. PRAYING - for the Promise from the Father. And flames of fire set upon EACH OF THEM. They were ALL FILLED with HOLY SPIRIT. And began to SPEAK with other TONGUES. Jesus came to baptize you in Holy Spirit. Believe that the flame of fire on your neighbors head is also on your head, receiving your own individual encounter with Holy Spirit, and believing the same God that offers Holy Spirit to others, is the same God that offers Him to YOU! He's for EACH & for ALL! 1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:1-4 NKJV

“Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” - Paul “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.” - Disciples in Ephesus And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied. It is possible to be a believer and a disciple and not have heard about Holy Spirit. Have you heard? If you are a disciple of Jesus (mathētēs - A pupil, committed student; a follower and learner of someone), according to the Bible, it is a basic, elementary part for a new believer's life. The world cannot receive Holy Spirit, but once you are reborn, and have a born-again spirit, then He can baptize you in Holy Spirit, because your spirit can contain what Jesus wants to immerse you into, giving you power for your life as a disciple of Jesus.
