Foundational Teaching from a Charismatic Healing Minister and a Catholic Scholar International healing minister Randy Clark teams up with Mary Healy, a respected Catholic scholar, to show not only that the gifts of the Spirit still exist today, but that they are not optional; they are the necessary tools God has given for both building his Church and spreading the Gospel. With wisdom and practical insight, Clark and Healy walk you through biblical texts, dispel misconceptions, and show that there is an endless variety of gifts. They also show how the gifts are not just for a select few, but distributed freely by the Holy Spirit among believers. After laying this foundation, the authors reveal how you can activate the gifts in your own life and use them to benefit others. In this hurting world, you can give people more than just a message--you can help usher them into an encounter with God.

It was a beautiful language and from that day it became hard to pray in ordinary usual language. Of course the Spirit is subject to the prophet. It became my prayer language. As I now look back those 50yrs I cannot recall any of those words spoken or syllables of any of those prayers to show it is not learned but was utterance instantly given by the Holy Spirit. Severally I have spoken in diverse kinds of tongues as the Bible called it on different occasions and for different purposes.
