satan has had a very successfulcampaign in preventing Christians

from getting the Gift of Tongues.

 There are so many lies and

misunderstanding in the church about

this gift.

Page 4: Translate the Prayer Language

In short, satan allows the Church totalk about it, study it, debate about it,

have nice doctrinal discussions about

it, as long as they just NEVER get it.

Not using this Gift has crippled theChurch, preventing many believers

from maturing on to the Higher Gifts.

It’s time to use the Gifts that God has

given us.

If you’re a Christian who doesn't havethe Prayer Language yet…

Get It!

Page 8: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 8/57

Stop making excuses of why you don'tneed it, or how you failed to get it

before.

 JUST GET IT!

Page 9: Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 9/57

and if you already have the gift…Use It.

Stir It Up

It doesn't do any good if it lies

dormant.

Let’s look at some of the LIES thathave prevented Christians from

receiving this gift.

Page 11: Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 11/57

Lie #1:It’s from the devil, satan is speaking

through you.

Page 12: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 12/57

 There no example in the bible of the gift of tongues being from satan?

No one who is speaking by the Spirit of Godsays, " Jesus be cursed," and no one can say," Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit. 1 Cor12:3

if I pray in tongues, my spirit is praying, 1 Cor.14:14

So the gift of Tongues is not from the devil.

Page 13: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 13/57

Lie #2:It’s not for everyone.

Page 14: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 14/57

 The problem with this thinking is thateveryone in the first church received

the gift of the prayer language.

Page 15: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 15/57

Let’s look at what it says in Acts 2When the day of Pentecost came, they

were all together in one place…All of 

them were filled with the Holy Spirit

and began to speak in other tongues

as the Spirit enabled them.

Acts 2:1,4

And according to one of my pastorfriends, he was leading a revival

meeting where 300 people came

forward to receive this gift. And when

he prayed, all 300 people received the

gift. So what are the chances that thisgift is only for some people and not for

Page 17: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 17/57

others. It’s available to anyone who

has faith to receive it.

Lie # 3:

I already tried, It didn’t work, I can’t

receive it.

Page 18: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 18/57

In my experience, a simple 5 minuteprayer to receive this gift may not be

enough. Maybe some anointed

pastors can do it that quick, but for

me, I’ve seen that a person will have

to press in, and pray hard to receiveit.

Page 19: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 19/57

 Teaching people about this gift will stirup their faith to receive it. You may

need to pray more than 1 hour, to

receive it.

So be patient.

Page 20: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 20/57

 The people who usually have difficultyreceiving this gift are religious people,

because their minds are full of 

spiritual sounding arguments for why

they can’t get it, or why they don’t

need it, or why it’s not important.

Page 21: Translate the Prayer Language

After I received the prayer language,the next day I was having trouble

starting it. So I wrongly thought that I

must have lost it.

I thought, “Oh no, I must have done

some sin, or some mistake and now I

lost the gift .”

Page 22: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 22/57

But the bible says in Romans 11:29,that God’s Gifts are irrevocable,

meaning that He’s not going to take

them back. Just because you’ve made

a mistake doesn’t mean your going to

lose this gift. In fact, a Christian canbe living in sin, and still be exercising

supernatural gifts.

Page 23: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 23/57

 The gift of tongues does NOT guaranteeyour salvation.

One Christian may NOT have the gift and

get to Heaven, and another Christian may

have it, yet wind up in Hell. So don’t let

spiritual gifts get your prideful.And remember, you can’t lose the gift, But

if you haven’t used the gift for a while, well

Page 24: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 24/57

then according to (2 Tim 1:6) you may need

to stir up the gift of God.

In my friend’s testimony, He was

evangelizing on the streets of Chicago

when he met a prostitute, who was

probably high on drugs. This womanaccepted Jesus and receive the gift of 

tongues, instantly.

And in no time, she’s walking up anddown the street with her hands in the

air, praising God, and using her prayer

language.

If she can receive it, so can you!

Lie #3:We don’t need it.

And the truth is, this is man’s wisdom

at it’s worst. God is not so confused as

to give the Church a gift that itdoesn’t need. What we really don’t

need in the Church is man’s wisdom.

Page 27: Translate the Prayer Language

Most of the Church is NOT working inthe Supernatural.

No Visions,

No Prophecy,

No Miracles,

No Healings,

No Deliverance, No Revivals

1 Cor 4:20 The Kingdom of God is nota matter of talk, but of POWER.

We need to Power of God, working in

the Churches.

Page 29: Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 29/57

Lie #4: The gift ended after the Early Church.

No it didn’t.

Millions of Christians have this gift.

Page 30: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 30/57

 These signs will accompany those whobelieve: In my name they will drive

out demons; they will speak in new

tongues; Mark 16:17

So, the Gift of Tongues has not ended.

Page 31: Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 31/57

Lie #5:It’s Weird!

 The truth is, how can you be a Christian

and be afraid of the supernatural. That’s

like being a fisherman, and being afraidof the water. A Christian must be able

to handle the supernatural.

Page 32: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 32/57

 This is just The Fear of Man The fear of man, prevents many

Christians from working in the

Supernatural.

Page 33: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 33/57

My sister's prayer language sounded very strange,

nothing like a Natural Language. And many people

would have guessed that it was fake. But one day she

sat next to a person who spoke Inuit, a rare Eskimo

Indian language. After hearing my sisters prayer

language, the man said, “Lady, do you even know

what you’re saying?...You’re saying a beautiful prayer

to God.” So even though her prayer language didn’tsound natural, it was legitimate. So don’t judge a

prayer language by man’s wisdom, because it doesn’t

sound normal.

Page 34: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 34/57

Sometimes Christian’s may already have a prayer

language, but just not know it.

And be on your guard, satan will

people around you to discourage you

from using your gift.

Lie #6Our Church doesn’t focus on Spiritual

Gifts.

 This is just a religious way of saying,

“We’re ignoring Spiritual Gifts”

Page 36: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 36/57

Can you image a church saying,“We’re not focusing on forgiveness”

or “We’re no focusing on Holiness”

Let's look at some of the benefits of using the Prayer Language.

It edifies and builds up your Spirit.

Page 38: Translate the Prayer Language

He who speaks in a tongue edifieshimself…

1 Cor. 14:4

…build yourselves up in your most

holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit Jude 1:20

Let’s look at Paul, his faith was verystrong. He said …………………..

I thank God that I speak in tongues

more than all of you. 1 Cor 14:18

If it was good for Paul, then it’s goodfor you.

According to many testimonies, theGift of Tongues hinders evil spirits.

And this gift is often used in

Deliverance, the driving out demonic

spirits. If you’re going to fight the

good fight against satan, Praying inthe Holy Spirit is a powerful weapon.

 The prayer language is how Godstarted the first Church.

In Acts 2 All the disciples were

together in one place, they were filled

with the Holy Spirit and Spoke in

 Tongues.

And in that 1 day, about 3000 people

came to Jesus.

Page 42: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 42/57

Well if that is the way God started thefirst Church, then it is NOT very wise

of us to skip this important step?

Page 43: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 43/57

In fact, Jesus said,…wait, until you have been clothed

with power from Heaven.

Luke 24:49

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 44/57

 The fact is that many Christians areexhausted, because they are NOT

Empowered from Heaven! They are

working in their own strength, not

God’s. So they feel tired and over

burdened serving God, even though Jesus said My Yoke is easy, my Burden

is light. (Matt 11:30) These Christian’s

Page 45: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 45/57

need to be empowered from Heaven!

 That’s the plan of God.

In most cases, (not all) Christians that

work in the Higher Gifts of the Spirit

started with the Prayer Language first.

Because it edified and built up their

faith.

Page 46: Translate the Prayer Language

 The Pray Language allows a person to prayfor several hours.

Before the Gift of the Prayer Language, my

prayer time was about 15 minutes long.

After 15 minutes, everything that my mind

could think of was said, I ran out of thingsto pray.

Page 47: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 47/57

But with this gift I was able to pray several

hours, switching back and forth from my

Prayer Language to my Natural Language.

I’ve been to many All Night Prayer

Meetings, and found that usually the

people who can pray in these All NightMeetings, are those Christians with

the gift of Tongues.

Page 48: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 48/57

And another benefit for having thePrayer Language is that once you

have it, you can start praying that

others would receive it. As Jesus said

in John 3:6, Spirit gives birth to spirit.

If fact, the Christians with the gift,should be searching for others to

Page 49: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 49/57

share it with, as Jesus said, freely

you’ve received, freely give.

How do you get the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 51/57

Find a church or Prayer Group that isusing the gift

My own home church was not

distributing this gift, so I had to visit

another church to receive it.

Page 52: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 53/57

But don’t give up, I've found thatgetting people to receive the gift is

like delivering a baby. For many

people it just doesn't happen in 5

minutes. I usually need to pray

intently with others for about 1 hourbefore someone received the gift.

Page 54: Translate the Prayer Language

Beware of a demon called ‘stop-Tongue’,this is a religious spirit that is among many

Christians. When a person is about the

receive the gift of tongues, this evil spirit

will flood their minds with every religious

sounding arguments for not receiving the

Prayer Language, along with every fear and

worry about tongues. Don’t be surprised if 

many religious leaders in your Church have

this religious spirit.

Page 55: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 55/57

I had it myself 

When a pastor was praying for me to

receive the gift of Tongues, right when I

started using it, a powerful voice came into

my mind, A religious spirit saying “Stop it,

oh this is so fake, you’re moving your ownmouth, they are tricking you, this is so

weird, this is not from God, you’re doing it

Page 56: Translate the Prayer Language

7/27/2019 Translate the Prayer Language

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/translate-the-prayer-language 56/57

yourself. You’re just babbling, that’s NOT

how to pray!”

I had to fight to shut this voice up, andignore all my fears. You must ignore satan’s

voice to receive this gift.

So What Are You WaitingFor?
