Can Christians be tired?


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Of cause Christians can be tired. After all we live in a human body with limitations. Are you feeling tired and run down?
Do you feel like you can use a boost? I do believe as God`s children we do have some advantages.
The word of God tells us to pray/speak in an unknown tongue.

When we do this:

-we speak to God (who understands all languages)

-we edify ourselves.

What does this mean?

The word edify means "to be a house builder, construct".

When the Bible speak of us as the temple, it does not distinguish between body, soul or spirit.
When you pray in an unknown tongue you are a house builder. You build up your own house - the house where God lives, through his Spirit.
Pray and build yourself up.
 
You don`t know how to speak in tongues?  
First, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit. This is not difficult. When you have given your life to Christ he fills you with His Spirit (this makes you His child) but I do believe you can ask God to fill you with His Spirit and give you a new language (this equip you for living the Christian life). Trust God, he will not give you bad things when you ask for His infilling with the Holy Spirit and He will protect you.
