Divine Proof
Dearly beloved of God, when we confessed Jesus as lord and believed that God raised him from the dead we were saved, we were born again of the spirit from God, and we received the spirit of sonship making us children of God.
Speaking in tongues is the proof that you are born again of God’s spirit, you are heaven bound, and all hell cannot stop you from going.
When we speak in tongues “the spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are the children of God, and if children heirs, heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ, so that if we do suffer together, we shall also be glorified together.” Romans 8:16-18
Once we are born again of the spirit from God, we can pray with the spirit, which the scripture calls speaking in tongues.
“In fact, he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, because no one understands what he hears himself speaking. By the spirit, he is speaking divine mysteries.” I Corinthians 14:2 WT
When we speak in tongues we are speaking directly to God our Father. Through Christ we have access to the Father by the spirit, and He exhorts us to use our access boldly with confidence.
The Father instructs us to come boldly unto the throne of grace so that we may obtain mercy, and find grace for timely help. What a privilege of sonship this is!
Listen to this:
“In fact, he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, because no one understands what he hears himself speaking. By the spirit, he is speaking divine mysteries.” I Corinthians 14:2 WT
When we pray with the spirit, “the spirit (in manifestation) jointly helps us with our weakness. Moreover, we do not know what we should pray for as necessary, but the spirit itself makes intercession with inexpressible groanings.” Romans 8:26
“He Who searches the hearts knows what the thinking of the spirit is, because it makes intercession for the holy [sanctified] ones in accordance with God.” Romans 12:27
Not only did God give us salvation through Christ; not only did He give us eternal life; not only did He give us the new birth spirit, He gave us the divine proof of these spiritual realities by speaking by the spirit of God, which is to speak in tongues.
John the Baptist said that Jesus Christ would baptize with the holy spirit.
Jesus Christ said that he would send the promise of the Father and they would be baptized with the holy spirit, and be clothed with power from on high.
The Apostle Peter taught that speaking in tongues was the proof that God raised Jesus from the dead, that He exalted him, and made him both Lord and Christ, and that he was the one “that shed forth this, which you now see and hear.”
The people present heard the twelve apostles speak in tongues the wonderful works of God.
A new administration, the Administration of the Grace of God, and the Mystery began on the Feast of Pentecost following Jesus Christ’s resurrection from the dead, his ascension into the heavenly realm, and seating at God's right hand. It began the new covenant of the spirit.
Now each and every child of God is born again of the spirit from God and has the spiritual ability to speak by the spirit to their Heavenly Father. We have a divine Spirit to spirit communication line.
We have divine proof that we are saved, we have eternal life, and that Christ is coming again to gather us up to him. Rejoice forevermore!
