“I think that the gifts of the spirit are always subject to the control of the person who's exercising them. You're not forced in to doing it. Love never forces. And therefore 'the spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet' is another way it is put. You don't suddenly find yourself taken over by a spirit and find yourself speaking tongues. You're in control, but it's a gift. You can stop and start as you please, but it's a way of communicating with God.” ThinkingWayPersonsSpiritForceTakenSubjectsExercisePleaseCommunicateTongueProphetFinding YourselfAnother WayGifts Of The Spirit Author:Nicky Gumbel
“I was just praying quietly in tongues and I found that a really helpful way to pray. There are other times when I use the gift when I really feel I don't know what to pray or how to pray. I know what I feel but I just can't quite put it in to words, and I use that, I find it a helpful gift. I don't think you need to speak in tongues, I don't think all Christians do speak in tongues, nobody has to speak in tongues, nobody's forced to, but if somebody wants to I think it's a good gift.” IfsThinkingKnowsWayWantNeedsFeelsUseChristianFoundSpeakPrayingTongueHelpful Author:Nicky Gumbel
“I think everybody needs healing. My understanding of human beings is that we were created in the image of God but we are all fallen, and Jesus died for us so that we can be redeemed. Every Christian is in a process of healing in some way. God's original creation was good, and in some ways fallen away from that. And in every area of our life we need to be healed and restored and to become more Christ-like.” ThinkingWayNeedsHumansChristianJesusProcessUnderstandingChristHuman BeingsHealingOur LivesCreationAreasDiedOriginalsFallenHealedGod ImageRedeemedChrist Like Author:Nicky Gumbel
