Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Praise God & Good Morning!!!!  Its early Wednesday morning where I am @ in CT USA…

Friends I have to tell you about the amazing gift the Lord blessed me with yesterday!

First, I have to go back to last week with my husband. Praise God he was baptized by the Holy Spirit last week and received the gift of tongues, our secret language the Devil can’t understand. Its our direct link to the Lord Almighty!

But I have to admit…I was a little WEIRDED out when he told me this. You see, I never understood tongues. I just thought it was craziness. But I’m a baby Christian so I know that there are SO many wonders of God that I am unaware of. I heard my husband do this and I couldn’t deny it was a gift from God. It was very emotional for him and I was amazed. Just by listening to him I could tell he might not be speaking words but he was speaking a language…I knew God was receiving his message.

But last week I was going through m y tribulation. The devil kept trying to attack me, whispering thoughts of “unworthiness” to me. Trying to make me feel that I was a liar, a deceiver, just no good and that God would want no part of me in Heaven. I rebuked those thoughts but then he send the spirit of gloom and the spirit of depression upon me to taunt me. I again rebuked those feelings but they were a heavy burden upon me. I noticed my patience with my children was running low, my sarcastic attitude towards my husband was getting worse…I know I had to continue to fight!

But the Lord became my strength and pulled me through! He told me to dedicate one full day to him and only him and I did that yesterday.

I stood off my networks, my cell phone, my tv and just gave myself fully to the Lord. I began to pray out to the Lord Almighty just to t hank Jesus and to speak directly to him…As I was praying I felt something come over me. It started at my head then I was just completely engulfed….then as I was praying out loud, my words became hidden under strange sounds rolling off my tongue. I wasn’t making sense audibly, but mentally I knew what I was saying. The tears started to flow and I was in an intense trance. My body began to sway back and forth and I could no longer hold my head up. It sort of flopped onto my shoulders. I continued to speak in tongues; praying to the Lord.

This lasted for a little while as I was at work and was interrupted. But it took me a few moments to regain my sense of awareness. I was just in such a trance that I needed to refocus myself on my surroundings.

I found a private place and got back down on my knees thanking my Father for baptizing me with a gift of the Holy Spirit.

At night after I tucked everyone in and was alone, I prayed again. The same thing happened…I fell into a trance being completely engulfed in the Holy Spirit and my prayers that I was saying out loud slowly became me speaking in tongues, still praying. Its very emotional when this happens…I can’t tell you how amazing it feels though. I feel light, I feel lifted. 

I know some of you are going to say “she’s crazy” …I don’t get this tongues thing…it sounds nuts…blah blah. I’m here to tell you I get it! I thought the same way!!!! But we are wrong and we have to be willing to accept all the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

If we truly want to be baptized in the Holy Spirit and follow Jesus we can’t pick and choose the gifts that we want to have. Its not a dinner menu…We have to be willing and actually PRAYING for ALL the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Seek speaking in tongues, seek healing, seek wisdom, etc! Accept everything the Lord blesses you with! Baptize me Father I will accept everything you wish to instill within me! Thy will be done Father! THY will be done!!!!

In Jesus Holy Name I pray that our Father blesses each and every one of you! God bless <3
