Praying in tounges in Dream

[Hidden In Him]

Yes I do!

Does anyone ever have dreams about praying in tounges, but can’t actually pray in tounges in real life?? This has happened to me 3-4 times. What does this mean?

Greetings, Eva Marie.

It suggests the Spirit of God is wanting to lead you in that direction, only you may be more submitted to the Spirit in dreams than in waking life, so He is trying to make you more accustomed to the idea in your dreams. But three or four times is a lot, so something is going on. You see, it takes letting go of the tongue when you are consciously awake, and this is what some are not very capable of, so they hinder the Spirit of God from speaking through them.

The dreams would also suggest He possibly wants to move through you prophetically, as tongues are part of the prophetic gift. So tell me, if you would like to do these things, how familiar are you with operating in tongues or prophetic gifts?

I find your posts interesting, btw. This is the first time I've read of the Lord speaking through someone in tongues in their dreams (though I'm sure there may be others).

Blessings in Christ,

It seems obvious that you already have the gift of tongues, but have yet to unwrap it. Your spirit is crying out in tongues, as witnessed when you sleep, but your mind gets in the way when awake. Speaking in tongues requires us to participate with our breath, our tongue, and vocal cords, but the mind that normally controls those must be excluded, and that's the hard part. Start worshiping and just let go of your mind control. Paul reveals the contrast between the mind and the spirit. 1Cor14v14For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.

This needs to be corrected.

Each gift stands on it's own. I don't try to discern spirits with my gift of prophesying, nor do I try to operate the gifts of healings with my gift of tongues,.... etc.

GOD may choose to operate two gifts at once, such as the case of Ezekiel prophesying over the bones and GOD also operating the working of miracles when Ezekiel obeyed Him, but the gifts do not share other aspects of other gifts. They never have.

The gift of tongues operates personally as a prayer language, and can be used by The Holy Spirit to speak corporately to a local body. That's the two operations of that gift in scripture.

Well, I have to confess that I haven't operated in or been around tongues and interpretation that much since my early days at an AoG church.

So let me ask, the content of corporate tongues and interpretation is usually what, in your experience?

Also keep in mind that after looking at where my response was posted, it was specifically in reference to praying in tongues in a dream; so dreams are actually more the subject being addressed here, which is an element of the prophetic gifts.

But I appreciate the response anyway, and looking forward to your response to the previous.

It is considered the same as prophesying,....

1Co 14:5 Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: and greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

And prophesying is defined as such,....

1Co 14:3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men edification, and comfort, and consolation.

So an interpreted message in tongues would provide edification to out spirits, the message would be encouraging and comforting, and the crowning feature would be the peace of The Holy Spirit surrounding you after the message, sometimes even during it.

Dreams and visions are components of the gifts, in particular the gifts of knowledge and gift of wisdom, but having a dream showing a person eventually praying in tongues doesn't somehow associate that particular gift with the others. Each stands on it's own, even in a dream.

I was more after your experience, i.e. specific examples of tongues and interpretation and specifically what those interpretations were.

We have a tongues message with interpretation in our church every so often a month currently. We don't write such things down because they are not scripture. The message is for our local church body. It's more of a generalized message rather than particular to anyone there.

What I'm looking for in a message is the edification to my spirit during the message so that I know it is The Holy Spirit speaking and not the person.

We used to have 3 tongues messages with interpretations during a service back around 2010. Corporate speaking by The Holy Spirit provides inspiration. and with that amount of messages and tongues, my whole week used to be full of revelation knowledge and closeness with GOD. The amount of writing I did and teaching for me by The Holy Spirit was off the charts.
