Grace for you today !
Christ My Exalting Glory!
“Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And the Lord said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.”
Genesis 11:1, 6 NKJV
The genesis of human languages is seen in the above scripture portion & it’s interesting to note that there was one language and one speech for the entire mankind.
Since God made man in His own image and in His own likeness, man had power in what he spoke . The Lord God Himself testified of this – “they have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them”. True!
But, because of their evil intent , they lost that power of speech as God came and confused their language. It is at this point, one language became multiple languages as it is so today.
After many centuries, Zephaniah the prophet prophesied saying, “For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language, That they all may call on the name of the Lord, To serve Him with one accord.” Zephaniah 3:9 .
This prophecy was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost ( Acts 2 ) , when the Holy Spirit came and filled everyone who believed in Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection. They believed In Jesus who is their righteousness ( T’sidkenu) and they began to speak in tongues ( the heavenly language). The Power of speech that was lost was again restored by the Holy Spirit *.Hallelujah !
Yes , my beloved , today the same Holy Spirit can give you this pure language – Tongues, full of power. Believe that Jesus died for you and rose from the dead to make you a new creation. You are the righteousness of God in Christ and now when you ask God to fill you in the Holy Spirit , you will receive the gift of speaking in tongues.
Tongues that has the power to redeem, recreate, re-establish , restore. repair and so on. Hallelujah! Amen 🙏
Praise Jesus!
