When we are a baby Christian, how does the Holy Spirit teach us to pray to God?

Question

It is interesting to understand from the answers that some people don't understand what a baby Christian is. That is someone just born of the Spirit, redeemed by His Blood, joint heirs with Jesus, part of the family of God. They need the milk of the Word. Then baby Christians mature & grow in Christ.

Answer 1

He prompts us to pray....and He communicates our prayer to the Father in a language that cannot be known except by God Himself

The apostle Paul spoke of this......I just forget where exactly it is in scripture. He referred to it as "groanings" that only the Spirit can decipher.

Got it....Romans 8:26 "Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us[a] with groanings which cannot be uttered."

Answer 2

I feel that while you pray to one among them, you are praying to all of them, due to the fact that they are all God (i.e. the Trinity). However I ordinarily pray "Dear Heavenly Father" or "Dear Jesus" and not often "Dear Holy Spirit". I feel practically it is the approach I've discovered from listening to different men and women pray and utilizing the ones terms. I do not feel there is a proper approach and a flawed approach in keeping with say, however should you particularly desire to understand check out asking a pastor!

Answer 3

I think you are referring to when we first come to know Christ, at whatever age, and are therefore like babies in our faith. The Holy Spirit encourages each one individually to develop and grow in our relationship with Christ. At first we find it difficult to pray and may only manage a short time in prayer because it is something we are not accustomed to. The Holy Spirit causes us to think more deeply about God, people and the world around us and helps us to realise that we can ask for help in any situation. He will lead us to pray for others and as we start to see our prayers answered, He encourages us to spend more time in prayer and developing our relationship with Jesus.

Answer 4

You aren't born Christian you're born you.
You can't comprehend the great debate of Religion.
I personally don't think Children under the age of 12 shouldn't be subject to Religion.
I know from experience, if your subject to it at a young age, it can have undesirable affects e.g. - it'll do nothing but confuse them and give them complexes.
And it's why I'm Atheist today.

Answer 5

tongues is a gift of the Spirit of God not something given to everyone the day they accept Jesus.No where does it say salvation requires tongues.Jesus is the only way...
Pray and ask God to direct you
pray some bible verses
right down somethings to pray about
Jesus wants to hear from believers

Answer 6

it's sickening to think in terms of babies being christian.... the action of prayer in the spirit is the body hearing inspiration.... it is not the spirit that makes babies christians it is their parents and/or societies that do and that christians don't shut up enough to be inspiried when in prayer proves they have no interest in the natural way of things... a baby condemned to be a christian is a sorrow for mother nature... what a true waste of life it is...
