What is in Your Future?

Devotions:
Walking in the ways of God are to walk in blessings. There is no blessings outside of God. He is the only good in the universe. But sometimes it can seem confusing as to what is the path of God for each person. One of the marvelous gifts that God has provided for us is the baptism in the Holy. Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. As we spend time praying in the spirit or in tongues we should then expect to interpret our tongues, as the Holy Spirit wills. When we pray in the Spirit our spirit is edified, when we interpret our tongues our mind is then edified as to the plans and purposes of God for our individual lives. This is not the only way to receive guidance from God but is is one of the most accurate.
“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.” 1 Corinthians 2:9-13 KJV
Here Paul talks about us praying in tongues, by a language not taught by human wisdom but which the Holy Ghost taught us. As we pray in tongues, we pray as the Holy Spirit gives us the utterance, Acts 2:4. So we are working together with the Holy Spirit. Our spirit knows all about us, even the things hidden because of trauma of the past and the Holy Spirit knows everything of God. So as we pray by the spirit we are praying our situations receiving God's answer.
Also as we pray in the spirit we are praying out the path that God has for us. All that eye has not seen nor ear heard nor has it entered into our hearts the path that our Father has for us. These are exciting things, good things that God will reveal to us by praying in the spirit and interpreting our tongues. These interpretations can be words or prophecies, visions, promptings, or divine encounters to name a few ways. God sees ahead and as we pray in the spirit God is able through our prayers to deal with problems for us before we even get to the problems.
Spend time praying in the Spirit daily and pray out your future before you et there. Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into your heart the wonderful future God has prepared for you but He will reveal it through praying in the Spiriit.
