Beyond An Evidence

Romans 8:26-27 (KJV) Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

It is common to hear some believers say “I have been baptized in the Holy Ghost but I do not speak in tongues.”And they feel that it is okay because they look at speaking in tongues as just an evidence. Speaking in tongues is as important as being baptized in the Holy Ghost.

Speaking in tongues is beyond an evidence. From Roman 8: 26-27 we can see that the Holy Ghost makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered and also He prays the will of God for us. For a believe who is baptized and there is no evidence of speaking in tongues the Holy Ghost cannot pray or intercede for such a believer because it is through speaking in tongues that He makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. He says things beyond what the mouth can speak, things beyond words.

Speaking in tongues is one of the ways through which we build our faith. Jude 20. Beloved if you are baptized and there is no evidence, crave to be baptized with the evidence of speaking in tongues until you get it, because it is much more than an evidence.
