“For the spirit God gave us does not make us timid , but gives us power, love, and self discipline.” 1 Timothy 1:7
Remember when the spirit fell upon the disciples in the room while they waited. They all began to speak in languages they didn’t know but God knew. Because there were people visiting from around the world who spoke different languages and they could understand their speaking and it was with power praising God and giving him glory. They also knew that these fishermen from Galilee were uneducated and would not know what they were saying but it had a large impact on them because it spoke of this amazing God. They knew just what to say and they said it directly to the people God wanted them to. It made such an impact that many came to know the Lord. That is power. To be able to open your mouth and say things you don’t know to people you can’t talk with because of a language barrier. I know someone who speaks Spanish but very few can understand a word he is saying but he keeps talking till they get someone who can understand it. I know our church has headphones that you can hear the service in their language but in Jesus time they wouldn’t have been able to be ministered to any other way. But they spoke just the right languages at just the right time to tell them about Jesus. Now that’s being led by the spirit. Most people wouldn’t be able to understand tongues. To me it makes no sense but just like when my friend speaks Spanish it makes no sense to me. But to the right person it can bring life. We are now sons and daughters of the highest King there is and his blood flows through our veins. That gives us amazing power.that we need to take ahold of and use. That blood flowing through our veins totally changes things and until you know your daddy like I do you don’t understand what you are missing. We have been given a weapon and we need to know how to use it properly. This weapon is not carnal but it is very powerful.
