Aligned To His Will (Daily Devotional)

Hello and thank you for giving us this opportunity to spend a few moments in God’s word with you. This week, we’ve been talking about speaking and praying in tongues and how beautiful this gift is. You know it is so simple, you just let words, given to you by the Holy Spirit, come out of your mouth. A language is just made up of words, actually if you look at it, it is just sounds, you are just making sounds. Right now, I am just making sounds but because you understand and have learnt this language, English, you understand the sounds I’m making. So, that is what speaking in tongues is all about, you make sounds given to us by the Holy Spirit, but it is a language that God understands. One of the beautiful things the bible tells us is that as we make these sounds given to us by the Holy Spirit or we speak this language, we pray according to the will of God. In Romans chapter 8, verses 26 and 27, the bible says, ‘The Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.’ That means these are groaning He gives to us, that are expressed out of our innermost person. Verse 27 says, ‘God who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.’ I want to emphasize that last part, according to the will of God. So, when we are praying by the Holy Spirit, there are times we don’t know what to pray, should I pray a yes or no, what do I pray for, I don’t know. But if I just pray according to the Holy Spirit and just yield myself to the sound He gives, the language He gives, I can be sure that I am praying according to the will of God. If I am praying by my own understanding, sometimes I don’t know what the will of God is, but when I pray in tongues, I can be sure I am praying according to the will of God. What a wonderful benefit! The time you spend praying in tongues is not wasted because it is prayer that is made according to God’s will. God will hear it and God will answer it. What a wonderful benefit! Father, thank you for giving us this blessing of having our prayers perfectly aligned to the will of God, prayers given to us by the Holy Spirit, we just yield to it, thank you, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
