I ask this question because I just finished reading the question that you have posted and I was wondering what is the prayer that I should pray to have him help me. I have asked Jesus to come into my heart but I have tried to speak in other tongues but it just doesn’t sound right to me and I have never asked the Holy Spirit to help me. So if you don’t mind posting a prayer to help me and the other readers that might be wondering, how too.

Just as I trust You for my eternal salvation by faith, so now do I trust You, by faith, to give me the fullness of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking with other tongues. I now receive, by faith, the gift of the Holy Spirit within. Thank You, in Jesus’ name, amen.”
Remember; when you say this prayer, and you believe you receive, you will need to speak in other tongues. Your mouth will not move unless you move it. Your tongue will not move unless you move it. You do not become a puppet on a string. You still possess your free will and the prayer in tongues is all you. The language you speak is unknown to you but God understands every word. You talk in faith the words you say you do not understand. If you did your natural mind could interfere with your prayer. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit and you speak in a tongue, as a sign that you are filled. The prayer in tongues edifies your spirit man. Your understanding is unfruitful because you speak with your spirit and your natural mind does not feed on it. Tongues is for the spirit man. Remember it is not something you feel. You open your mouth and you let come out what will, it is your spirit praying. All tongues do not sound the same. You are a small child in Christ as you first accept the Holy Spirit. Your language is not going to be the same as one that has been filled and practicing for some time. You will be speaking by faith, believing by faith you are doing just what you are suppose to. If you get a good feeling great if not, remember it is faith not what you feel.
Your prayers become more powerful. because you are praying in a way you do not understand. But the Spirit knows exactly what to pray for.
It is the very best way to pray and intercede for another, when you do not know what they need.If you should need more help see a loved one you know that prays in the spirit and they will be more than happy to counsel you.
