When I was in seminary, I often told pentecostal jokes. I figured it was the group I grew up in, so we’re the only ones I should probably poke fun at. Apparently some people didn’t’ know that about me.
One day I came back into the class with a fresh cup of coffee before the break was over. There was a group in the back corner and I went to see what was going on. One of the guys turned to me and said, “Can you believe these guys still think tongues is still a gift for today?”
“Hey me too!” I laughed, “I pray them every day!” Then I challenged, “How do you strengthen yourself in the Lord?” He didn’t have an answer and turned to leave.
I don’t know if I ever talked to that guy again.
But it’s a good question.
How do you strengthen yourself in the Lord?
Praying in the Holy Spirit is how Jude tells us to do it. Paul told the church in Corinth to excel in gifts that build up each other, and tongues is a gift that builds up yourself. He wished that could all speak in tongues so they could build themselves up. (Although he’d rather they’d all prophecy so they could build up the gathered church).

Read the Negativity Fast Reflection - I Build Myself Up
I build myself up in the most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. I don’t know what I say, but Holy Spirit prays through me. As I pray, though my mind is unfruitful, I build myself up. I think about what is good and right and honourable and worthy of praise. I pray in faith knowing the Spirit helps me in my weakness.
Have I prayed in the Spirit lately?
