Speaking in other tongues is one spiritual activity you must take seriously! If you've not been praying this way, you're missing too much! Paul said, "I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all" (1 Corinthians 14:18). He could brag about it because He understood the immense benefits of speaking in other tongues. No wonder he had such remarkable results.Speaking in other tongues is an important way to accomplish a God-given purpose. It's a way to "quick-charge" your spirit and cause you to respond very quickly to spiritual things. As you pray in tongues, the anointing is stirred within you and, suddenly, you're turned into another man.When you're born again and filled with the Holy Spirit, the power of God comes to reside in you. This power is triggered or set in motion when you speak in other tongues. Speaking in tongues is the solution to fear and timidity. If you've ever become timid about anything, activate power within you by speaking in other tongues; you'll find yourself dealing wisely and soundly in the affairs of life.
