Praying in tongues is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:7-11). It is a gift from God, enabling us in our prayer lives. When we pray in tongues, we speak mysteries to God and build up our spirits. Sounds really good to me! Why wouldn't I want to do this?

For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself. I wish you all spoke with tongues (1 Cor. 14:2-5).

The following is journaling from Malachi Talabi

Tongues are like sniper guns. The enemy hates tongues because they are like sniper guns.

The picture I have given you isn’t about shooting devils or demons… it’s about accuracy in prayer.

There is no better way to pray than to take things to God in prayer via tongues. The accuracy of tongues is profound; you hit the spot every time.

Tongues are like sniper guns.

Note from Malachi: As I researched sniper guns, I realised that a lot of snipers are a long distance from their target. This is like us when we pray in tongues: we may not know it but we can pray accurately about things way in the distance. I am talking years and even decades away.
