STABILIZING YOURSELF AT YOUR HIGHEST LEVEL OF FAITH.
âBut ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost â(Jude 1:20).
Thereâs a big difference between the verse above and what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 14:4 which reads, âHe that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himselfâŚ.â The word âedifyâ in 1 Corinthians 14:4 means to build yourself up; it also means to charge yourself. However, what Jude was talking about is akin to building a super structure, when he said, â⌠building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in theHoly Ghostâ (Jude 1:20).
The Greek word translated âbuilding upâ is âepoikodomeo,â and it means to build on something that already exists. So Jude, by the Holy Spirit, is talking about building a super structure on something thatâs already there. So, by telling you to build up yourself on your most holy faith, it means the most holy faith that he was referring to is already there.
That âmost holy faithâ refers to your highest faith; yourmost sanctified faith; the topmost level of faith that youâve attained at any given time. He says build on it by speaking in tongues; donât go below it. You know, we experience faith at different levels from time to time. Sometimes, we experience a very high level of faith, and some other times, our faith seems to go a little lower than usual.
However, by speaking in tongues often, you build yourself up on that highest level of faith that you attained, and it becomes the benchmark. The next time, that highest level of faith becomes your lowest faith. Then, you operate from there, and get to another high level of faith, and keep building on it.
Itâs one of the reasons we emphasize speaking in tongues. As you receive Godâs Word, your faith comes to a peak, but you build on it; you stabilize at that topmost level of faith through praying in tongues. At that level, no adversity, challenges, problems can pose a threat to you, for youâve risen above them. Do this and watch your life grow remarkably.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of the heavenly Vacabulary which youâve given me to build up myself on my highest level of faith , My faith is the victory that overcomes the world ! And as I pray in tongues, I mount up with wings as eagles, soaring high in victory above challenges and adversities in Jesusâ Name. Amen

1 Corinthians 14:2-4 AMPC âFor one who speaks in an [unknown] tongue speaks not to men but to God, for no one understands or catches his meaning, because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things [not obvious to the understanding]. 3 But [on the other hand], the one who prophesies [who interprets the divine will and purpose in inspired preaching and teaching] speaks to men for their upbuilding and constructive spiritual progress and encouragement and consolation. 4 He who speaks in a [strange] tongue edifies and improves himself, but he who prophesies [interpreting the divine will and purpose and teaching with inspiration] edifies and improves the church and promotes growth [in Christian wisdom, piety, holiness, and happiness].â
Romans 10:17.KJV. âSo then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.â
