Effective Prayer

We cannot pray effectively if we pray with our minds and that is why Jesus sent us the Holy Spirit so that we can EFFECTIVELY PRAY and WORSHIP GOD.  As Jesus said to the woman at the well. I read from John 4:23-24 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the TRUE WORSHIPERS shall worship the Father in SPIRIT and in TRUTH; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth." We can pray with our mind but we need the Holy Spirit of God in us, so that we can pray in the Spirit according to the will of God and that is why Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to those who have accepted Him and who are following Him in truth.
Paul wrote in Romans 8:26-27 ” In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He (The Spirit) who searches the hearts KNOWS what the mind of the Spirit is, because He INTERCEDES for the SAINTS ACCORDING to the WILL OF GOD. “ We don’t know the will of God and therefore we cannot PRAY the will of God. We can just pray the things that are important to us, we can pray according to our mind but we NEED HELP and that is why Jesus sent us the Holy Spirit to HELP us PRAY according to the will of God. Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 14:15 He says "what is the outcome then, I shall pray with the Spirit and I shall pray with the mind also;“ In order to be able to pray effectively, we need the Holy Spirit.  We need to be able to pray in TONGUES.  We don’t know what we are praying but we are praying mysteries to God according to the will of God by the Holy Spirit dwelling in us and praying according to the will of God.  We read that in 1 Corinthians 14:2 He says, "for the one who SPEAKS IN A TONGUE does not speak to men but to God; for no one understands, but in his Spirit he speaks mysteries.”
When you are praying in a tongue you are praying mysteries to God.  You are not praying with your mind, your mind is unfruitful but the Spirit of God that dwells in you together with your spirit prays mysteries according to the will of God. That is why we cannot effectively pray according to the will of God if we have NOT RECEIVED the HOLY SPIRIT.  We NEED the Holy Spirit of God to ASSIST us in praying according to the will of God.  And that is why we NEED the HOLY SPIRIT.  We NEED to be BAPTIZED IN THE HOLY SPIRIT and we NEED to RECEIVE THAT TONGUE which HE GIVES US, which will enable us to speak to God, mysteries that nobody understands. The devil does not even understand it.  I don’t understand it, you don’t understand it, nobody understands it but the SPIRIT OF GOD, PRAYS MYSTERIES unto GOD and that is why the POWER OF GOD works through those who WORSHIP HIM in SPIRIT and in TRUTH.
Have you received the HOLY SPIRIT?  Do you PRAY in the SPIRIT?
May Jesus bless you.
