Sid Roth welcomes Glenn Arekion
Sid: We want everyone everywhere to find out the plan for their life and to do it. And there are people listening to me right and you’re saying God, “What do you want me to do?” Or “God, I’ve got such horrific things going on in my life, I can’t do anything but put out fires; but I want to fulfill my destiny.” And I have on the telephone Glen Arekion and I’m featuring his brand new book and I mean I just wish I had this book when I was a new believer. I wish every old believer would have this book. It’s called the power of praying in tongues and by the time you finish this book and listening to our special CD called “You’re Personnel trainer for the supernatural,” both the book is written and the CD is by Glenn Arekion. If you do not pray in supernatural languages every objection you have will be stripped away and you’ll be taught how to pray in supernatural languages. And then if you do have this gift, but you’ve put it on the shelf or you speak a few words once a week. You are going to put this front and center; but you know what just as an exercise you go to the gym and you need a personal trainer to help you just keep going on and persevering. This book and this CD will be your personal trainer. Glenn, how does someone find the center of God’s will for their life? There are people listening to us right now and they have such critical decisions to make, they don’t know what to do. What advice would you give them?
Glenn: Well, when it comes the will of God the Apostle Paul tell us Sid that we must not be ignorant or unwise, but we must know what the will of God is. Now there are two kinds of the will of God in scriptures. You have what is known as a general will of God which comes from the Bible from the will of God which is for across the board standard will of God for every believer. But then you have this specific will of God. Why are you here? What am I suppose to do with my life? But how do I discover that specific will because we all know that we can go to the Bible and discover the standard will of God for our life. But how do I discover that specific plan, that specific path that God has for us? The scripture says in the book of Proverbs that “It is to the glory of God to conceal a plan or to conceal a word but the honor of kings to search it out.” So how do we search out that plan? Paul gives us a clue in 1st Corinthians Chapter 2. He says that we speak the wisdom of God or the plan of God in a mystery. Now here’s a great word, mystery and Paul tells in 1 Corinthians chapter 14 verse 2 that when we speak in tongues were speaking mysteries. So we speak the plan of God in a mystery. We speak the path of God in a mystery and that is praying in the Spirit. We speak the word of God in a mystery; the hidden plan which God ordained before the world unto our glory. So right now God has a plan for each and every one of us before the world began; before He ordained the world he already ordained a specific plan for your life; a specific path for your life and a specific place for your life. And when you are in that place where God wants you to be the grace will flow. But how do I discover that plan, in a mystery by praying in the Spirit. Then Paul goes on to say he said, “Eye has not seen nor ear has heard neither has entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared.” So there are things prepared for us before the foundation of the world. There is a plan prepared for us and in that plan there are prepared stuff. And how do we discover it? By praying in the Spirit. Paul says…
Sid: Now you say that speaking in a supernatural language will pull you into the future. Is that what you’re talking about?
Glenn: Yes sir. It will take you from the past from the mundane place where you are right now into the exact specific location where God wants you to be. And that’s how you discover the plan of God for your life. And most Christians unfortunate don’t discover the specific plan for their life; it is trial and errors for them, but God if you take the time to speak God’s supernatural language which would be your map to get you to where you want to be. Where God wants you to be and in that place God will bring you to the future where there is the blessing of God and things that have already been prepared for you.
Sid: Give me an example of this in your own life, for instance you have a congregation in Louisville, but it didn’t start out as a congregation in Louisville. Tell me the first trip you made to Louisville, Kentucky.
Glenn: Well, I was on a plane flying to Louisville, Kentucky and this was my first time into Louisville. And I was in the plane looking down just seeing a bunch of trees and I was thinking to myself, praying the spirit, why am I going to Louisville, never being here before, why is God sending me to Louisville, Kentucky? So I was just praying in the Spirit and I came down when we landed. The person met me at the gate, shook my hands did not know me from Adam and just shook my hands and says welcome to Louisville, Kentucky. This is a preacher’s graveyard, nobody makes it here. And as sure as he said that, the Holy Ghost screamed on the inside of me. This is where you are coming next and you’re going to break that curse! This I want you to come to Louisville. I want you to come to Louisville, Kentucky. See, how I got that, by praying in the Spirit. Louisville, Kentucky was nowhere near my mind; it was not in my thinking. But, by praying in the Spirit and when I came off the plane…
Sid: Now, how convinced are you if you hadn’t been praying the Spirit for a long time that you might have missed your destiny?
Glenn: Oh, I’m definitely sure I would have missed my destiny. I mean, I know without a doubt that I would have missed by destiny if I wasn’t praying in the Spirit because tongues will synchronize you with a plan and the timing of God. It will take you were you want, where God wants you to go.
Sid: Let me ask you this, Romans 8:28 says all things work together for good and I hear that quoted all the time. But I never hear the verses before Roman’s 8:28 quoted which tells you what you have to do to have everything work out for good. Explain that.
Glenn: Well, the verse before says likewise the Spirit of God helps our infirmities. For we don’t know what we should pray for as we ought but the Spirit himself maketh intercession. Now that, “the all things work for together for good has been taken out of context and it’s always in connection with something that is bad. Then we say well, all things work for good but that verse does not talk about death; that verse was not talking about a bad situation. This verse was talking about praying and groaning in the Spirit and intercession. And it refers to praying in tongues; it refers to praying in the Spirit and then all things work together for good to them that love God. So it is when you are actually praying and interceding in your supernatural language…
Sid: So when it says groanings, it’s talking about your supernatural language?
Glenn: Yes Sir, Yes Sir because it is in articulate speech; it is not done in your own natural language. It is referring to intercession in your supernatural language of tongues. Because tongues, the supernatural language is ultimate help in our prayer life. Because many times we face situations, we don’t even know how to pray about it. But that’s how we can lean on the Holy Spirit to pray through us and as we lean on Him then all things work together for good as we lean on Him in that supernatural language; that all things work for good to them that love God.
Sid: You know when I think about some of this teaching that you have in your book and your CD that when you’re praying in a supernatural language, God’s language you have no unbelief, no fear. Can you image being able to pray with perfect faith, no unbelief and no fear. I mean when you realize the magnitude of it it’s mind-blowing.
Glenn: Yes, there’s not an ounce of doubt or unbelief or fear when you’re praying in the supernatural language of tongues. It’s all speaking in line with God’s word, that’s the Holy Spirit inside of you praying. He’s inside of you connecting with your High Priest in Heaven, Jesus.
Sid: Now, one of the things that I know about you is you’re known for getting revelation knowledge. What does praying in tongues have to do with this revelation knowledge you get from the Bible?
Glenn: Well, you can read the Bible from an intellectual level and a lot of people do that and that’s all they know the Bible from an intellectual level. But, when you begin to pray in the Spirit, then it opens up the Bible to you from the Spirit stands point and the Holy Spirit is the author of this book. And you will not understand the Bible like the Holy Ghost can explain it to you. It will open you up to the realm of revelations to see things that God wants you to see from His word; not just from intellectual standpoint but from spiritual standpoint.
Sid: And one of my burdens is that people that represent the Kingdom of God walk in purity. How does speaking in supernatural languages purify your life?
Glenn: Now, we know that our flesh doesn’t like to pray, our flesh doesn’t want to pray at all, our flesh is lazy; even Jesus says the Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. And the more you begin to pray in the Spirit you are dominating your flesh. It will help you and enable you to give your Spirit man ascendency over your flesh. And the weaker that your flesh is, now I’m not talking about sickness and disease for weak flesh, I’m talking about controlling and dominating the flesh, the carnal nature. And you dominate from your spirit man and then you begin to walk a life of purity, holiness, you begin to live a life of righteousness the way God designed us to walk; it’s because we are mortifying the deeds of the flesh by and through the Spirit.
Sid: You know, I just wish I had this CD, I needed a personnel trainer, I needed someone to mentor me as a new believer and as a Jewish person I didn’t have anyone to mentor me. But if I had had this CD, which is called “Your Personnel Trainer for the Supernatural, a 101 Reasons Why To Pray in Tongues.” And then for those that haven’t broken into this realm yet, it’ll teach you how to break in the realm in speaking in supernatural languages. And those that have broken through, when you finish this CD and when you finish this brand new book titled “The Power of Praying Tongues” I’m going to promise you something, you will be so motivated to spend hours praying in supernatural languages. What’s going to happen to these people when they start praying hours in the supernatural language?
Glenn: Their live will change; miracles will flow in their lives. They will hear the voice of the Lord; they will get direction for their future. They will know what to do. They can start eliminating mistakes out of they’re lives.
Sid: Okay, the book “The power of praying tongues” and the CD “Your Personnel Trainer for the supernatural.”
