Build Yourself Up
“But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in God’s love, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.” (Jude 1:20-21 WEB)
“He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.” (1 Corinthians 14:4 KJV)
Both Jude and Paul agree that speaking in tongues (aka praying in the Holy Spirit) builds yourself up.
The word Paul used is “oikodomei” (translated as edifies) which means “to build a house”.
“Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB)
Under the New Covenant of Grace, there is no more temple made of stone, wood, and metals. Our body has become God’s house (temple).
When you speak in tongues, you are actually also building up your body, to be strong, fit, beautiful, and healthy. You will also live long.
This building-up effect is not limited to the body, but also the soul, and your life. You are built up in all ways.
Just by speaking in tongues, you are allowing God to do major renovation work on you.
If the devil wants to make you sick, old, and weak, he will first attack your receiving of God’s word and your prayer life.
We need to be built up daily, so keep speaking in tongues! This spiritual gift is so wonderfully powerful.
