If you are unable to pray it maybe because there is no Holy Spirit because when He is in you, He will want to connect to God at all times.
The Holy Spirit is more important than any other person in your life because no person can be in all the places with you at all times.
Until you receive power from above, every little effort will not yield much.
When what you need is missing, you become jealous of other people that have it.
The Holy Spirit is available for everybody that believes in Christ. All He is looking for is a clean vessel and He will come in.
Speaking in tongues is utterance from the Holy Spirit. It is the outward sign that one has been baptized in the Holy Spirit.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit is for one to be endued with power from on high and it can happen by means of prayer and by laying of hands. It is for people that are thirsty for it.
The flesh wars against the Spirit. When the Spirit wins, you do the will of God. When the flesh wins, you do the will of the flesh.
