Cor. 14...
4He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
18I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
 
19Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
Family!!
How goes the journey ? The following is an explanation with further detail on Prayer tongue coupled to above verses. It is in hopes this brings you to an understanding not all know scripture back to front to promote prophesying.
This is Spiritual conceptual thought to utterance, to build us up (edifies the individual (verse 4)to battle addiction, bad thoughts and praise. War tongue for me because I am a wretch an he knows it, lol. Spiritual gifts are a God send and without the ability to play on Satans and Gods baseball diamond (Thought Processes) this one would have succumbed long ago to my humanity/nature John 8:44. Any language has structure and in that structure to fit the proper words together and speak them time passes. In prayer tongue there is no structure or time to pass between an utterance. See, God knows our thoughts Heb (4:12 below) so in the time to fit "I rebuke you satan" , another thought or two have already slipped in between the, I & rebuke, as the mind structures the words and brings them to the tongue. Weird? Yes, to the world it is weird if one was to hear me pray but the world will never hear my tongue, it is private. Weird stems from Satan in conforming to the world, Romans 12:2. However ,rapid fire rebuttal/rebuking of the thought process is what is happening at the speed of thought and praising Him and asking for God to look after the children and help us all in His will, all in an utterance (half a second to cover all that in an utterance. Lets call the utterance "a" for this explanation format. Quick as thought correct? That's where God plays ball family, in the mind). Hook Hebrews 4:12 here , For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart , and see where it talks of the heart . That can be translated to mind also. Heart is Mind division of soul and spirit THOUGHTS & intentions.
Its like coming to the diamond with no glove on to catch line drives using your bare hand (Words , structure and "time" to create them = Bare hand) to field entire thought processes. We as babes in the faith get disparaged because while forming words to tongue another evil thought may get entertained and turned to deed. Especially this one where every one smokes around me or cusses or drinks & drugs = constant bombardment in temptation. However, a tongue is utterance (verse 2) one can play on the diamond with a glove/tongue in fielding entire thought processes. Paul states he speaks more tongues than Corinth (verse 18). Prophesy tongue is a whole other tongue and it edifies the church as a whole (verse 19).However, one must be able to battle Satan in the mind on the diamond he plays ball in,thus, self edification, and not a sin in the tongue to combat Satan in the realm of Soul, Spirit ((of God)) and mind).
Now one that prophesies is ,"greater", but because this one does not prophesy but self edifies, it does not make me evil and/or sinful in self edification, it is a necessity. It is written and true. Paul tells us he does it (verse 18) and it sounds like 24-7, lol . Weird yes, to the world, but this one is still in sanctification and is not a learned man of the scripture and have not asked God for prophesy and could not handle it where I am at in the journey and He knows it as well as I do and better. So, why ask. The inspiration for me to ask for a prayer tongue was brought to this ones attention in fellowshiping of the mind and how do we keep up. Utterance my friends is how. No structure, but can capture the thought and our intent. God will speak through our tongue to your intent and yes CF it will sound weird to your ears until you find that we now have a glove to field with in rapidity of thought. And later it will be how did we survive without it, lol. In closing the below verses still in same chapter (in minds eye sounds like praying to me , (verse 2) there are types of tongues , verse 3. What says you? Hope this clarifies a little my friends . Be in JOY!!
2For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
3But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
4He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
18I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
