filled with the Spirit, (by) speaking to one

WITH GRACE IN YOUR HEARTS to the Lord."

The central role of singing with our spirit (singing
in the Spirit). Note its value and importance
in the apostle Paul's life.
"For
if I pray in a tongue, MY SPIRIT PRAYS, but

with the spirit, and I will also pray with the
understanding. I WILL SING WITH THE SPIRIT,
and I will also sing with the understanding."
(1 Corinthians 14:14-16)
"I
thank my God I speak with tongues MORE THAN
YOU ALL; " (1 Corinthians 14:18)

ALWAYS with ALL PRAYER and supplication IN THE
SPIRIT, being watchful to this end with ALL
PERSEVERANCE and supplication FOR ALL the saints"
(Eph 6:18)

songs in the Tabernacle of David in the Old Testament.

Hezekiah and the leaders commanded the Levites
to sing praise to the lord WITH THE WORDS OF
DAVID AND OF ASAPH the seer. So they sang praises
with gladness.
