The Phaneroo Devotion: Of Speaking In Tongues - 1
Apostle Grace Lubega
1 Corinthians 14:39 (KJV); Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
I have, quite sadly, heard men preach against the speaking of tongues in their ministries. This is done for a number of reasons whose backing you cannot find in the scriptures.
For example, there are those who forbid Christians from speaking in tongues because those around them will not understand them when they pray.
Our theme scripture is very clear on this. It says that you should not forbid anyone from speaking with tongues. The Message version of the same scripture says, “Don’t tell people how they should or shouldn’t pray when they’re praying in tongues that you don’t understand.”
Simply because you do not understand what someone else is saying while praying should not be a reason for you to stop them from speaking in tongues. After all, they are speaking to God and not to you.
In 1 Corinthians 14:2, the Bible says, “For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh NOT UNTO MEN, BUT UNTO GOD: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.”
Tongues, even when spoken publicly, are a private conversation between a man and his God and should be respected as such.
Praying in tongues ought to be encouraged because it is our language of prayer as children of the Most High God.
FURTHER STUDY: 1 Corinthians 14:2, Mark 16:17
GOLDEN NUGGET: Praying in tongues ought to be encouraged because it is our language of prayer as children of the Most High God.
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. Thank You for the gift of tongues and the language of the Spirit. I embrace them as my portion and can never let myself think any less of their power and place in my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Omutume Grace Lubega
1 Abakkolinso 14:39 (KJV); Kale ab’oluganda, mwegombenga okutegeeza eby’obunnabbi, era temuziyizanga kwogeranga mu nnimi.

Ekyawandiikibwa kyaffe ekigguddewo kirambulukufu ku kino. Kigamba nti tolina kuziyiza muntu yenna okwogeranga mu nnimi. Enzivuunula ya Baibuli eyitibwa Message ey’ekyawandiikibwa ky’ekimu egamba, “Togamba bantu ku ngeri gye balina oba gye batalina kusabamu bwe babeera nga basaba mu nnimi z’otategeera.”
Olw’okubanga totegeera omuntu omulala ky’agamba bw’abeera ng’asaba, terina kubeera nsonga ey’okubagaana okwogera mu nnimi. Kubanga era, baba boogera eri Katonda sso ssi eri ggwe.

Ennimi, ne bwe zoogerwa mu lwatu, ziba mboozi ey’ekyama wakati w’omuntu ne Katonda we era n’olwekyo zirina okutwalibwa bwe zityo.
Okwogera mu nnimi kulina okukubirizibwanga kubanga lwe lulimi lwaffe olw’essaala ng’abaana ba Katonda Asinga okuba owa waggulu.

KUHUSU KUNENA KWA LUGHA – 1
Mtume Grace Lubega
1 Wakorintho 14:39 (KJV); Kwa ajili ya hayo, ndugu, takeni sana kuhutubu, wala msizuie kunena kwa lugha.
Kwa kusikitisha sana, nimesikia watu wakihubiri dhidi ya kunena kwa lugha katika huduma zao. Hii inafanywa kwa sababu kadhaa ambazo utegemezo wake huwezi kupata katika maandiko.
Kwa mfano, wapo wanaowakataza Wakristo kunena kwa lugha kwa sababu waliowazunguka hawatawaelewa wanapoomba.
Andiko letu la mada yetu liko wazi sana juu ya hili. Linasema kwamba usimkataze mtu yeyote kunena kwa lugha. Toleo la Message la andiko hilo linasema, “Usiwaambie watu jinsi wanavyopaswa au wasivyopaswa kuomba wanapoomba kwa lugha ambazo wewe huelewi.”
Kwa sababu tu huelewi mtu mwingine anachosema wakati anaomba isiwe sababu ya wewe kumzuia kunena kwa lugha. Mwishowe, wanazungumza na Mungu na sio wewe.
Katika 1 Wakorintho 14:2, Biblia inasema, “Maana yeye anenaye kwa lugha, HASEMI NA WATU, BALI HUSEMA NA MUNGU; maana hakuna asikiaye; lakini anena mambo ya siri katika roho yake.”
Lugha, hata zikisemwa hadharani, ni mazungumzo ya faragha kati ya mtu na Mungu wake na yanapaswa kuheshimiwa hivyo.
Kuomba kwa lugha kunapaswa kuhimizwa kwa sababu ni lugha yetu ya maombi kama wana wa Mungu Mkuu.
MASOMO YA ZIADA: 1 Wakorintho 14:2, Marko 16:17
UJUMBE MKUU: Kuomba kwa lugha kunapaswa kuhimizwa kwa sababu ndiyo lugha yetu ya maombi kama wana wa Mungu Aliye Juu Sana.
SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Asante kwa karama ya lugha ya Roho. Ninaikubali kama sehemu yangu na siwezi kamwe kujiruhusu kudharau uwezo na nafasi yake katika maisha yangu. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.
