How to Begin Praying in Tongues According to the Bible“But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.” (Jude 1:20 WEB) There’s faith, and then there’s a “most holy faith”. Holy means to be set apart. When we pray in the Holy Spirit, also known as praying in tongues, we are using a “most holy faith”. It is a faith that is uncorrupted by worldly beliefs, unhindered by our mind’s tendency to produce unbelief in our hearts and un-limited by our understanding of Scriptures and God’s heart for us. Praying in tongues is truly a gift that sets us apart unto God’s will—Jesus Himself praying for us through His Spirit living inside us, offering up praise and prayers that are perfectly aligned with God the Father’s will. “In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.” (Romans 8:26-27 WEB) It’s the gift that allows the holy Trinity to work in tandem, having free rein over your life—destroying whatever obstacles are in your way, orchestrating blessings in your path, building you up in all ways (body, soul and spirit) and even praying for others who need urgent help. “So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest! And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.” (James 3:5-6 WEB) As ignorant unbelievers, we once used the power in our tongues to speak death and destroy what is good in our lives, sabotaging our destinies. “Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and one sat on each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.” (Acts 2:3-4 WEB) On the Day of Pentecost when Jesus poured out the Holy Spirit upon the church, the Holy Spirit manifested Himself as tongues of fire to show the nature of the gift of praying in tongues. Through the gift of praying in tongues, God catches hold of our tongues and uses its power to burn away what is evil and set up what is good and life-giving in our lives. 
When we pray in the Holy Spirit, also known as praying in tongues, we are using a “most holy faith”. It is a faith that is uncorrupted by worldly beliefs, unhindered by our mind’s tendency to produce unbelief in our hearts and un-limited by our understanding of Scriptures and God’s heart for us. Praying in tongues is truly a gift that sets us apart unto God’s will—Jesus Himself praying for us through His Spirit living inside us, offering up praise and prayers that are perfectly aligned with God the Father’s will.

King of My Heart - Bethel Music 2. Finished - New Creation Worship 3. I Stand In Awe - Sovereign Grace Praise 4. Praise the Name - Hillsong Music The most important thing any man can do is to point to Jesus our Savior. Your best days are ahead of you. You think you want to learn how to serve God better, but God wants to serve you first. That’s His heart for you. To the traditional church, this sounds almost irreverent—but they don’t know God’s heart for us. John 13:3-5 - On the night that Jesus was betrayed, He stooped down on His knees and washed His disciples feet. He even washes the lowest parts of our lives. “Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God, and was going to God, arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist. Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.” (John 13:3-5 WEB) Don’t strive for the perfect state. Just live in the blessed state and enjoy it. There is no perfect wife, child, country, organization, pastor, etc. in this lifetime. 6 October 2019 - Healing is for the Undeserving - New Creation Church Sermon Notes - Pastor Lawrence Lim Sermon NotesPraise and Worship Songs performed: 1. Our God - Chris Tomlin 2. God of Angel Armies - Chris Tomlin 3. Victory Is Yours - Bethel Music 4. Refuge - New Creation Worship 5. I Am The God That Healeth Thee - Don Moen It is your Heavenly Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Even in your valley seasons, you can have the Lord’s joy. This joy is not dependent on your circumstances. Jesus is your joy, hope and peace. Pastor Lawrence read a testimony of Marcus’ miraculous healing from Alzheimer’s disease through partaking of the Holy Communion. This testimony is in Pastor Joseph Prince’s new book “Eat Your Way to Life and Health”. There are some diseases that medical science says are incurable—that’s a fact. But God’s word is the truth and God’s word says that by Jesus’ stripes, we are healed. God’s will is revealed in His word. It is God’s will for every person to be healed, healthy, strong and to live a life full of energy and vigor. Jesus is perfect theology. When you see Jesus, you’ll know what God’s will is. Jesus is the Word and will of God. Jesus is the exact image of the invisible God. In the Greek, it means that Jesus is the exact representation of what God the Father is like. Don’t let people cheat you into believing that it’s God will for you to be sick. When Jesus was on earth, He went about doing good, destroying the works of the devil. One of the things He did most frequently was to heal the sick. He cleansed the lepers and even opened the eyes of the blind. God’s heart is for you to be healed and to be well. Exodus 15:26 - Yahweh revealed His name to the children of Israel. When He reveals His name, it’s because He wants you to know His heart for you. His name is Yahweh Rapha (Yahweh who heals you). You can have this assurance in your heart that He wants to heal you through His finished work at the cross. “and he said, “If you will diligently listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you.”” (Exodus 15:26 WEB) Even if something bad happens, God’s Grace is greater than what you did or did not do. Your faith shouldn’t be based on what you did or did not do. When bad things happen, don’t blame God and do not blame yourself. Instead of trying to find out why it happened, look for the solution—Jesus’ finished work at the cross. God’s provision through the cross is greater than any challenge you may face. Pastor Lawrence really believes the revelation of the Holy Communion is needed for this season. We should be immersing in Pastor Prince’s new book and receiving the revelations within. Pastor Lawrence wasn’t asked by anyone to say this—it’s his own opinion. The blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed us from every sin, so how can it be that we are made sick because of a sin that we committed many years ago? God will never hold our sins against us. 2019年10月6日 - 把你的烦恼交给耶稣 - 马可牧师 - 新造教会讲道笔记 - New Creation Church Mandarin Sermon Notes (Pastor Mark Ng)敬拜和赞美歌曲: 1. 耶稣的爱 2. 不放弃我 3. 仰望 神是不睡觉的。晚上不要两个人都不睡—把你的担忧交给耶稣。 不要一直想你的烦恼。只管放手，主会接受，一旦转手，上帝出手。 信耶稣就是一直把你的烦恼交给耶稣。耶稣要你活得开心。 方言祷告可以舒缓你的心。义人的祷告是大有功效的。 不要开口是最大的问题。向上帝开口。不要闷闷不乐。 圣灵要帮助你。 上帝是圣洁的，可是我们以前是罪人，不能与他同行。因为神爱我们，耶稣才会为我们死在十字架，赦免了我们的罪。 五旬节是教会的诞生。教会是耶稣的心肝宝贝。他已经永远洁净了我们。 我是有限的，可是圣灵是永远超越我们的限制的。 神要填饱我们的心灵。耶稣是生命的粮。我们不只是靠食物而活的—是靠神的话语。 我们在基督里是君王和祭司。我们要开口。 马可福音 16:17-20 - 我们是有权利的。问题是很多人说他们没有。 让神勒住你的舌头—用方言祷告。天使会回应，魔鬼会逃跑，思想会清晰，心灵会舒畅。 上帝要越过我们的思维而祝福我们。 耶稣已经为我们被压碎了—我们不必自己再扛了。 神的恩赐是很踏实的。 “这些神迹将伴随着信的人：他们将奉我的名驱赶鬼魔；说各种新的语言 ； 对付 蛇类；即使喝了致命的东西也绝不受害；按手在病人身上，病人就将痊愈。” 这样，主耶稣 对他们说完话以后，就被接到天上，坐在神的右边。 门徒们就出去，到处传道。主与他们一同工作，并且藉着伴随的神迹证实这话语。”（马可福音 16:17-20 CSBS） The Most Gruesome Chapter of the Bible
