Divers Kinds of Tongues

CareyM,
I've noticed as I've grown in the Lord that my tongues never stay the same, especially after coming through some of my hardest struggle and trial. I've spoken in a totally different language each time.

I went through a season of singing an intense prayer, sounding very Jewish and then interpreting the song to myself. Very powerful words of encouragement from the Lord and confirmation of His power and care.

All I can say is, for me, I like that. I wouldn't want to pray and say the same thing over and over for years on end.

And yes, it does edify me, greatly!

I'm so glad to hear this PO...the same thing has happened to me over the years, I just have never quite understood why.

I think it makes you feel that you are growing in the Spirit. I like that!
