Psalm 11:3 (NKJV)If the foundations are destroyed,_ what can the righteous do? _Earlier this year, our current (outgoing!) Labour-led government has passed a law to decriminalise the killing of unborn babies in abortions, right up to birth.This ungodly law, passed by ungodly & nasty people (liberal MPs), has further contributed towards the destruction of the foundations of our nation:Foundation of moral decencyFoundation of the sanctity of lifeEtc.Our upcoming General Elections will include 2 Referendums that, if voted "yes" by a majority of people, will further destroy the foundations of our nation:Cannabis legalisation and control referendumEnd of Life Choice referendum (Euthanasia) [binding referendum]Psalm 10:4 (D-R)For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: _ but __ what has the just man done? _Evil can only flourish when good men do nothing.Quotes by Edmund Burke:All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothingWhen bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptable struggleQuestion:What are we doing, the good, the just and the righteous, to stop the destruction of our nation's foundations.When pastor David Yonggi Cho was asked about the secret to the success of the Christian church in South Korea, he said:We pray (and)We obeyWe too adopt this same strategy, especially with view of the upcoming Elections and Referendums.We pray defeat over the liberal left and the mad far rightWe pray defeat over both (Government-initiated) referendumsWe obey God's instructions by voting for God-fearing candidates & conservative parties (Electoral Vote and party Vote)Psalm 75:6–7** , ** 9–10 ** (LB) For promotion and power come from nowhere on earth, but only from God. _ He promotes one and deposes another. _ … _ 9 ** But as for me, I shall forever declare the praises of the God of Jacob._ _** 10 ** "I will cut off the strength of evil men," **_ says the Lord, "and _ increase the power of good men in their place."**_Based on this Scripture, we can (and should) pray for evil people to be removed from Parliament, and for good people to be raised up in their place.Praying in the SpiritRomans 8:26 (NKJV)Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but _ the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. _The Holy Spirit helps us in our weaknesses (limitations)We do not (always) know what, or how we should pray as we shouldThe Holy Spirit makes intercession (prayers) for us with groaningsGroanings: Gr. stenazo - to express grief by inarticulate or semi-articulate soundsThe Holy Spirit doesn't make these groanings without us or outside of us.He lives in us and He prays & groans through us.J.B Phillips N.T. … but his (__God's) Spirit _ within us _ is actually praying for us in those agonising longings which never find words.(Douay-Rheims) … the Spirit himself asketh for us with _ unspeakable groanings. _This groaning in Romans 8:26 is reference to praying in tongues.Praying in tongues is a heavenly prayer language that we receive when we are baptised with the Holy Spirit.Romans 8:27 (NKJV)Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because _ He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. _He (the Holy Spirit) makes intercession for us (in tongues - through us)… according to the will of God.Praying in tongues is praying Holy Spirit-inspired words that are always in line with God's perfect will.Acts 2:4 (NKJV)And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and _ began to speak with other tongues _, _ as the Spirit gave them utterance. _When we pray in tongues, we do the speaking, but it is the Holy Spirit who gives us the words.Therefore, praying in tongues (also called "praying in the spirit") is a co-operation between us and the Holy Spirit within us.We pray verbally and out aloudThe Holy Spirit supplies us with the words to pray" Prayer Walk the Nation 2020" – Saturday 3 OctoberWhen you go out into your neighbourhood next Saturday during "Prayer Walk the Nation 2020", pray strongly in tongues as you go:For the families who live in the streets around youFor God to pour out His Spirit in your neighbourhoodFor spiritual blindness to be removed from the people's eyesTo give them ears to hear the gospel and an open heart to received Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and SaviourPray against the Coronavirus and its effect the people and on the nationPray for God to give the population discernment in the upcoming election & referendumsAlso pray for God to take down ungodly politicians in the upcoming election, and to replace them with God-fearing peopleJude 20 (NKJV)But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, _ praying in the Holy Spirit. _Praying in tongues has numerous functions and multiple benefits:It is a supernatural prayer languageIt is a "pre-approved" form of prayer that changes thingsIt is praying the perfect will of God for every person and every situationIt is an effective form of intercession for cities, regions and nationsIts "flow-back" effect is that:It lifts you out of the natural realm into the realm of the SpiritIt is the doorway into the supernaturalIt builds you up spirituallyIt positions you to receive revelation knowledgeColossians 4:12 (NKJV)Epaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ, greets you, _ always laboring fervently for you in prayers _, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.If our prayers lack passion, they also lack power!So when you pray (in tongues), pray fervently and passionately!James 5:16 (NKJV) Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. _ The effective, _ _ fervent _ _ prayer of a righteous man avails much. _Ampl. … The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].Lets continue to pray boldly & fervently - we are changing the nation!

In this message Ps Stefan teaches on the gift of TONGUES - as well as the believer's inner witness.
