“the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.”
When we pray in our heavenly language, we are praying for things that we don’t even know we ought to be praying for
I could have friends in LA or or New York and they are struggling in their marriage and could be one second away from giving up on everything, and nobody knows it besides them and the Holy Spirit, and I could be interceding on their behalf not even knowing it.
When we pray like this… we are partnering with God and saying to Him that I AM WITH YOU, WHEREVER YOU ARE MOVING… even though I don’t know where that is.
In this series, we dive into some complex issues that at times may be difficult to understand. We do not want to leave anyone confused in any way, so if you have any questions about what was taught, or if you have a question about the Gifts of the Spirit that we did not cover, please submit your question to us and we will do our best to respond to you and to post it online for others.
