"Kathy, Praise God, I'm so happy for you!!"
Kathy,
I am so happy for you!
Before I even start though, you don't need to wait because the Dave
Roberson book is an e book on his site and it is free. I'll get the
link directly to it for you.

You find it on his site when you clink the link "books" and it is called "The Walk of the Spirit the Walk of Power".
I don't think you will find a better source of information to answer
all your questions about tongues for personal edification than you get
from this brother.
I cannot tell you what your post means to me. It is easy these days to
become discouraged with all that is going on in this world and while we
wait for our Lord to come and rescue us the everyday issues can get us
down. Knowing that I have helped even one person to come closer to
Jesus like this means so much to me.
I rejoice with you and look forward to meeting you soon in our
glorified bodies that have no more infirmities. I pray that even now
you will begin and continue to experience the joy of the Lord which is
our strength and yes, the gift is for you to enjoy as much and as often
as you like "on purpose" as Dave Roberson says. You have seriously made
my day!
If I may quickly summarize a little of what Dave teaches about tongues
again, he says that what happens is we are given the proper prayer from
the HS to facilitate asking the Father for what the Spirit knows we
need (because the Spirit knows what is the plan of God for our life
that we have gotten off of, like a builder looking at a blueprint for a
building He sees what the plan says is supposed to be producing in our
life) but we don't how know to ask for the right thing for our-self.
Therefore, He asks on our behalf by speaking "mysteries" which means
according to God's word the same promises that God gave through the
apostles are what is being prayed for us back to God. The prayers we
pray are 100% according to God's perfect will for us as opposed to our
own prayers which are often "amiss" because we know not how to pray as
we ought. The Spirit helps our infirmities. As you continue to pray
with the Holy Ghost you will be asking God to give you what He already
knows you need and He has been wanting to give you all along but He has
been limited by His own rule that He needs an asking voice. (You have
not because you ask not and when you ask you ask amiss.) Then when you
ask this way God is finally free to answer you "speedily" as Jesus
says, and as Dave Roberson says, "There aint a thing this side of hell
the devil can do about it, praise God!" Dave himself once said in a
teaching tape that I got many years ago on this, he wanted to know what
he was saying, just like you asked. Well God told him, "I can't tell
you because you'd mess it up." In other words its best that we don't
know because we cannot interfere then but trust that He knows what He
is doing.
Satan has tried to keep this truth from spreading because once you get
this you will be like a holy fire that can spread to others too.
Blessings overflowing!
