Not one word of that says it’s a special prayer language.
The charismatic movement has hijacked the term *in the Spirit* to mean something that is not supported in Scripture.
There is not one piece of evidence that *praying in the Spirit* or *singing in the Spirit* by default means a heavenly *prayer language*. All those verses in 1 Corinthians 14 can be equally applicable if the *tongues* is simply another foreign language, because you know what? I cannot understand any other language on this planet better than I can understand what is referred to as a prayer language.
If I was speaking in French, or Spanish, or Russian, or Chinese, I would not understand what I was saying, it would not edify anyone else around me unless they knew the language, I would be speaking into the air.
There is absolutely ZERO Scriptural support that this *prayer language* is anything other than a known foreign language.
If we’re going to be speaking some heavenly language that angels and God speaks, then we all ought to be speaking Hebrew.
I’ve been viewing some of the tribal rituals of pagan worshippers.....I thought you might find this one interesting, ...and there are others like it...of an
Mongolian tribesman who believes he is speaking in the voice of his God or Ancestor spirit. Note: the ha ha ha ho ho ho which is often times seen and heard at Pentacostal/Charismatic events though they claim it’s God’s Spirt.
You can go anywhere pretty much on the video and here this guy going hoho ha ha..etc.
