Mark 16:17-18
17And this signs shall follow them that believe: In my name shall they cast out devils: they shall speak with new tongues:
18They shall take up serpents: and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.

all of them believe in it until they are new to this church and don't understand yet. in spite of the shown fact that they believe in conversing in tongues, basically 6% actual do (in accordance to what I heard). the share would have replaced of direction. however the reason to believe is that it is interior the Bible and the Bible is inspired you recognize. while you're an evangelical Christian ensure to grasp the Bible is inspired and conversing in tongues in certainly there. study the e book of Acts over thrice and by skill of this time you will see further and further. God needs to open your eyes to appreciate his will and what he's doing. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is the beginning place of the spirit-crammed existence. having the flexibility to desire (and perchance sing and communicate) in tongues is data of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The Baptism provides Christians greater boldness to witness and tongues is extremely useful to those that have it yet looks nonsense to those that don't understand. i will propose some books which will help understand which includes "They communicate with different tongues" by skill of John and Elizabeth Sherrill. it is been around a protracted time in spite of the shown fact that it is definitely one in all the excellent and proves and not utilising a shadow of a doubt that praying and conversing in tongues is real and that it has a useful objective. study Acts a million:5, 8; 2:4 and 19:4-6, then study the full e book of Acts and that i Corinthians 14, Epesians 4:7-sixteen.

Very Good question Raj! I'd have to go with YES! Speaking in tongues is for ALL believers. And ALL believers are encouraged to do so, and it is NOT to be hindered or discouraged.
1 Corinthians 14:39
39 So [to conclude], my brethren, earnestly desire and set your hearts on prophesying (on being inspired to preach and teach and to interpret God's will and purpose), and do not forbid or hinder speaking in [unknown] tongues.
(See also 1 Corinthians 14:5)
God bless you all!

It ia clear that the apostles assumed that speaking in tongues was Availble to all who believed. However, it is never stated or implied that is is expected or required of all believers. Doctrines that state such, even to the point of excluding believers from salvation if they don't speak in tongues, are clearly unbiblicall.
So if you speak in tongues, Praise God! (in tongues or in english or whetever)
If you dont speak in tongues, Praise God! (In english)
If You want to speak in tongues, ask the Allmighty for this gift. He promoses to give good gifts to his children when they ask. It is a good gift.
God Bless!

Tongues is available for all, but so might prophecy, yet not all obtain these gifts.
Tongues is evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit but is not evidence of slvation.
