The Bible says that God is a Spirit (John 4:24). This means that the realm in which God operates is the realm of the spirit, and to Him, things in that realm are more real than things in the physical realm. For example, if you needed a job, and then having prayed, God said to you "I've given you the job, " He doesn't need to physically put you in the company first, as proof that He's actually given you the job. As far as He's concerned, it's done; it's a settled fact in the realm of the spirit.
As a child of God, you're also a spirit being, and the Lord expects you to function from the realm of the spirit. But of course, the realm of the spirit is invisible to the human eyes and we need to look into it from our spirits, and praying in other tongues is an utmost advantage in this regard. As you pray in tongues, spiritual realities are unveiled to your spirit, and you're able to see and relate with the 'real' truth concerning any situation. Though Abraham's body was physically dead, he looked into that realm and saw his unborn generations (Romans 4:17). You can also see into the spirit realm and relate with your inheritance in Christ Jesus as you pray in other tongues.
Remember, life is spiritual; everything you can see with your optical eyes and relate with physically, came from the realm of the spirit. So as a Christian, you must make up your mind to operate from the realm of the Spirit for you to win in this life. This is why it is absolutely important that you have insight into that realm. That way, you'll always dominate this physical world.
For you to have a fruitful walk with the Lord, you have to learn to see the way He sees. You must see things first in the spirit ever before they manifest in the physical. This is one more reason you must pray in tongues often, so that your spirit would be activated to see and apprehend those things which the Lord has given you freely to enjoy.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for teaching me to look into the realm of the spirit, where I see realities and not the fleeting shadows of this earthly realm. As I pray with the spirit, I'm transported, away from this earthly realm where I see and apprehend my inheritance in Christ, in Jesus' Name. Amen
