The following excerpt is taken from Tongues Beyond the Upper Room by Kenneth E. Hagin:

We Need Both Kinds of Prayer

You can readily see how the Church as a whole has fallen so far short and so far behind in prayer. Many Christians have tried to get by on just mental praying, so it’s no wonder they haven’t gotten any further in their spiritual progress. They’re trying to get by on one kind of praying when God has given His children the ability to pray with the spirit and pray with the understanding!

Praying only one way is like trying to ride a two-wheeled bicycle with just one wheel. If you do that, I guarantee you’re going to have a problem going very far!

We can apply that illustration to “the two wheels” (or two kinds) of prayer—praying with the understanding and praying with tongues. These are the two wheels that propel prayer forward and produce long-lasting, spiritual results.

When the majority of the Church decided that praying in tongues (the “front wheel”) died with the apostles, believers were left with only one wheel of prayer and could no longer get very far spiritually. So most Christians put their one-wheeled bicycle (praying with the understanding) on a stationary bicycle stand and started pedaling. And as a result, those Christians have stayed in the same spot for years, never making much progress. They may think they are moving forward, but compared to the destination God intended for them to reach, they haven’t gotten very far at all!

Scripture Focus…

(2) “For 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]… (14) For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit [by the Holy Spirit within me] prays, but my mind is unproductive [it bears no fruit and helps nobody]. (15) Then what am I to do? I will pray with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will also pray [intelligently] with my mind and understanding; I will sing with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will sing [intelligently] with my mind and understanding also.”
(1 Cor. 14:2, 14–15 Amp.)

Prayed…

Father, we thank You for Your presence and give You reverence today
We thank You for the Holy Spirit
Father, we are hungry to pray out further, making progress for souls to come forth
Thank You for the ministry of Your Spirit in the Church today!
Paving the right way for the Church to go in
There is a standard to walk in that way for these days
Words to speak and declare
We lift the hearts of people to You
Supplies are being sent out right now
Moving steady as we pray
Healing has come to you, now let go and go!
When it’s time, we will turn that key and walk through that door
No weapon will stand against us for the blood is making a way
Calling for dramatic turnarounds in Jesus’ name!
Lord, thank You for eyes to see
We thank You for these days that we are living in
Oh, we worship You
We plead the blood of Jesus over the state of Colorado!
Every ministry that is resident within that state is covered in the blood
The positions of authority in those ministries are protected by the blood
Pleading the blood over the government leaders within that state
Revival is coming to you, Colorado!
Praying for inroads for the move of the Holy Spirit to move in
We lift up and pray over every Jew and Synagogue in Colorado!
That they would know us by our love, Father!
Pleading the blood over the connection between the Jews and Christians
Enemy, we command you to stop in your maneuvers right now in Jesus’ name!

The following prophecy was given by Kenneth Copeland on 8.22.13 at Living Word Christian Center:

“You have been being prepared,” saith the Lord of grace. “You have been being readied for this very time. For this move of My Spirit not only has there been launched the largest gathering of souls mankind has ever seen on this planet, but also the breakdown of Babylon’s influence that came onto mankind and has been cheating him out of his life ever since the tower at Babel. Aha! But My people have been prepared and you’re part of the team,” saith the Lord. “I am ministering to you and bringing to you and placing in you solutions that people have been begging for, for centuries. And with the anointing of the Spirit in you and on you, you’ll be able to share these things with people that will deliver them, that will deliver their businesses, that will deliver their children, that will remove debt and all of its pressures out of their lives. And you’ll be able to get involved with evangelism. You’ll be able to get involved in your church. You’ll be able to get involved in all those things that before you’ve wanted to so deeply but thought you didn’t have the resources to do it. Ah, but I have prepared you and I have brought you to a place where you are ready. More ready than you know you are because you know more than you think you do. And My time has come,” saith the Lord. “So prepare yourself here and again and now and again and then this place and that place as I speak to you and tell you to minister to people to pray for them to minister to them of your goods and so forth, and you’ll see it multiply right in front of your face, for the time of Amos has come when the sower and the reaper are walking side by side. You sow it and multiply it right in front of you. So give the Lord praise and honor and glory and thank Him because you are part of this congregation and you are part of the team that I’m raising up all over the earth. For you have listened to My voice and you have taken heed to what I have said and you’re in the place that I called you to be in and as you walk in that more and more and more and more and more, you will prosper and questions will be answered. And you’ll say when you get through. ‘My, my, am I glad I heard that because my life will never be the same again.’” Hallelujah!

Father, we thank You for the readiness of the church of God
You have equipped us with everything we need to go to the finish line
We pray out all of the mysteries, advancement each and every day!
Great gains in the spirit
Covering the way day by day
Leaning not to our understanding but in all of our ways, we acknowledge You, Lord!
Have Your way in us!
Father, thank You that Your way is the right way
The Holy Spirit is within and continually guiding and directing us along that way
In this day and hour, we must be either “all in” or “all out”
You have planned for us to live a high life
We take our fill of the Spirit today
Your favor is going before us and creating opportunities for Your miracles to take place
