Speaking in tongues is a profound spiritual gift that enables us to connect with God on a supernatural level. More than a form of prayer, it is a divine language, a direct communion with Father God in partnership with the Holy Spirit that transcends human understanding.
Prayer is more than a routine or religious act; it’s a lifeline that connects us to the heart and mind of God. Through prayer, we step into an intimate communion with the Father, sharing our hearts, listening to His voice, and aligning our lives with His will. In this journey of life, prayer is essential, empowering us to grow spiritually, gain divine wisdom, and experience the fullness of our relationship with God.
When we’re baptized, we’re united with Jesus in His death, burial, and resurrection, stepping into a glorified identity that redefines our lives. This is not a distant or future experience but a present, tangible reality where we live as sons radiating God’s glory on earth.
When a father loves his child, the child experiences all that love in every way. The Father loves you! It is His good pleasure to make your life perfect in every way. When you realise that, you begin to cooperate with His way of doing things and avoid jumping the gun in impatience. He has prepared only goodness in your life-path and all He wants you to do is get to know Him. When you know Him you will begin to identify His nature in you and see His goodness laid out for you. When you identify His nature, you will know how He operates, and that will give you every reason to cooperate with Him.
What are ‘DEAD WORKS’? Anything that you’re NOT specifically called, purposed, or created to do… is a dead work. You are created uniquely and with a specific purpose. If you are not designed to do something in this life, but you’re doing it anyways, either because it’s the right thing to do, or it’s something that needs to get done… that’s a dead work! Don’t be condemned… and don’t let your conscience condemn you, if this is something you’ve been doing all this while. Jesus always steps in at the right time. We all come to a place of revelation in different areas of life and from there change our course by that revelation. Let the Spirit do it for you.
Through Him we are more than conquerors! Romans 8:37. In Jesus, we are empowered to tread and overcome in every realm and dimension of creation – spiritual and physical. In Him, we are sons. We have the authority to restore creation back to its original estate. This is what sons are about. Creation is waiting for sons to realise that mandate and walk in it.
When God becomes real to us, we experience a relationship that’s no longer conceptual. He’s not just an idea in our mind anymore. We move past theology and intellectuality, into something more tangible. When God becomes real to us, Bible knowledge just isn’t enough. We are now fed with experiential knowledge – a knowledge that’s personal. We come into oneness with Jesus… the knowledge we receive is now a living conversation. We become one with His thoughts and His being. That’s how He communicates. He’s not a second person anymore. He’s one with our heart and mind. We share His experience of the Father.
Jesus died, was buried, He rose to life, ascended to Heaven and is now seated at the right hand of the Father! Even when we were dead in sins, He raised us back to life together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;) And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus – Ephesians 2:5,6. Everything Jesus went through… we went through! He became us in all that He suffered, and also in His resurrection and ascension. We were IN Him when He went to the cross. He in us and we in Him. This is our reality today. We are seated with Him at the Father’s right hand.
What’s it like when you ‘spend time with God?’ Do you read the bible or play some music? Or both? Maybe read up on some good books? Listen to messages? Praise and Worship? Or do you ‘spend time with God’? When you’re spending time with your fiancé or spouse, would you read a book or biography of him/her? You’d probably do that when they’re not around (if at all) or just think about them. There’s a time for reading and listening to messages and the Bible… and it’s very beneficial. This is the time we catch up on knowing about God and what He’s about. We learn from the experiences of people, and their lives.

The human brain receives information from the physical senses. It processes this information to create a reality – this is called our ‘mindset.’ This reality plays out in daily life. The decisions we make everyday are based on our mindset. From the time we were born, our minds have been trained to think, based on the information our brain has received. This information has come from the world around us. By default, we live according to the ways of the world.
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. – Galatians 2:20. When we heard the gospel of our salvation we were imparted faith that came from hearing that Word. Our human faith wasn’t sufficient to receive such a magnanimous gift of salvation, especially when we were still in sin.
Numbers are a common occurrence in dreams. Sometimes, the only thing you may see is a number flash across you. Numbers have significance and when interpreted rightly, have profound meaning. Numbers in dreams can often represent a variety of realities that a person may experience or come across in their day to day lives. They may refer to time (days, months or years, dates), money and finances, house address, age, scriptures of the Bible, and a lot more. They could be added together, subtracted, all depending on how you’re led.
Dogs are common dream elements in many peoples dreams. They appear in all sorts of contexts and have a lot of significance in a persons dream life. Depending on where you stand in your relationship with this species, it can have different meanings. Some people don’t like dogs. Probably because of bad experiences, like being chased or bitten by them. Dogs, to them are a fear factor. When they see dogs in a dream, it generally, although not always, may represent either a fear in their lives or have some other negative connotation. They don’t see dogs as a positive thing because of their experience.
For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man doesn’t perceive it.
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, in slumbering on their bed.
Then He opens their ears, and seals their instruction. – Job 33:14-16. It’s amazing how everyone dreams, at some point in time, whether consistently, regularly, every night, or a few dreams spread out over the year. You may have had the same dream playing over and over, some times for over the course of a number of years. Some may have seen the same dream or vision played out differently at different times, but you know it’s the same dream.
So then let no one boast in men.
For all things belong to you, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come… all things belong to you, and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God. – 1 Corinthians 3:21-23. The Father has put ALL things within us when He gave us His Spirit. We are complete IN Him… He made us One with ALL of Him. There is nothing lacking in us. The New Man doesn’t receive things from outside of himself anymore.
The Bible is not given to us as simply study material… it’s supposed to change our reality!
Studying the Bible to get information, or to preach an interesting Sunday message isn’t going to change you… it’ll just give you head knowledge – more theology! The Word is living and active. It’s a creative and transforming life force that changes and manifests realities. The Word is a person! He is Jesus. He’s not a topic of discourse or subject material to dissect. He’s a world of Glory – He’s an experience of life.
Everything created waits eagerly in great expectation and longing for the sons of God to manifest their true identity. Creation can experience perfect freedom under the dominion of sons – it was created to serve us. Creation longs to serve the son of God and experience freedom from curse. Being One with Jesus causes glory to manifest to this physical world. As long as our feet touch this world there is hope for blessing and life to flow.
Praying in tongues is praying in the Spirit… Praying in the Spirit can also be by revelation.
It’s when the New Man prays. The New Man is born of water and the Spirit… we are spiritual beings. When we pray in tongues, we speak out mysteries of God into manifestation! Speaking in tongues is when the we ‘call forth those things that be not, as though they are’ by the Spirit. Every audible word bypasses the physical mind and materialises spiritual realities in our favour! The logical mind doesn’t need to comprehend spiritual realities unless necessary – that’s when the interpretation of tongues is given.
It’s the fruit of the Spirit.. it’s not our fruit! The fruit of the Spirit is not ours to bear – it is the Spirit of God within us who bears the fruit and manifests it. All that’s required from us is to let Him do it! We are made one with the Spirit of God. That is what being born again means. We have received the Life of God and now we are one with that Life. The Fruit Of The Spirit are by-products of being born again. We cannot be filled with the Spirit and not be filled with the fruit. It’s another thing, that we tend to interfere with the manifestation of the fruit – but it’s all placed within our being.
The tree of the knowledge of good and evil brought about condemnation and guilt in man. Man was subjected to a life of choosing between right and wrong. The purpose of life changed from originally enjoying a relationship with God, to having to choose between good and evil to survive. Jesus restored all things to where the New Man is now living in the abundance of life. Jesus is the Tree of Life.
We can only believe information we have received. There are only two sources of information – the physical world, and the Father. The world can only give us information about the physical realm. It cannot reveal Spiritual realities. Only the Spirit can give us Revelation about Eternity – our identity and Jesus! Our belief system is a product of the information we receive, and our lives are a product of our belief system!
When you inhabit the Father, there is no urgency! There is no pressure to perform or produce. Inhabiting the Father is: living by the Spirit. He produces the fruit – you just go along for the ride and watch Him live through you. Your life must be a response to His leading. Being led by him never binds you with a need to produce anything. Living in the Spirit means to cooperate with what He is leading you to do, when He wants you to do it – this is when you see the greatest results.
The bible was written by men. It was the experiences of men who spent their lives in relationship with God. It is written to show us what God does, not to reveal who He is. The revelation of Him comes through an intimate, personal relationship. He is a person. He reveals Himself through His Holy Spirit in us. You are one with God. You are so one with Him that whatever He does, He does through you. You are a portal that unleashes an eternal reality into this physical world.
