Message summary & scripture references

In this weekend’s family message, we are beginning to look at what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit. To get started, we will be learning about speaking in tongues. Your family will not only learn about this concept but be given the opportunity to receive this gift. (originally broadcasted on May 5, 2018)

Below are our scriptures for this lesson. Throughout the week, go over these scriptures with your children.

Acts 2:4 KJV

[4] And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

1 Corinthians 14:4 KJV

[4] He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

1 Corinthians 14:14 KJV

[14] For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

To help reinforce today’s lesson, here are 7 review questions to ask your children.

  1. When you speak in tongues, who is giving you the words?
  2. Is speaking in tongues a supernatural or natural language?
  3. Why were the first people who heard the Apostles speak in tongues amazed?
  4. When you speak in tongues, what are you building up?
  5. What is speaking in tongues otherwise known as (in terms of prayer)?
  6. When you pray in the Holy Spirit, do you understanding the words you are praying?
  7. How are you filled with the Holy Spirit?

We pray that this week’s message is a blessing to your family.
