Whenever you pray in tongues what you are doing is praying the will of God. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God and so knows God's will on every matter. So when you engage Him in prayer, He helps you to pray the will of the Father on that issue. That is what I call, "Target Praying", as you can't miss. And when we pray according to His will, we are guaranteed speedy answers (l Jn. 5:14-15).
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.(- Romans 8:26-27)
The Holy Spirit makes intercessions on our behalf. But you must be truly in the spirit to be able to pray effectively in the spirit. You do this by engaging your spirit man in praying not just your intellect. When this is done, you are communicating at heaven's frequency, and so are bound to get outstanding results.
No wonder the devil wearies people and tries to stop them from praying in the spirit. Not only does he not understand what is being said and so can't hinder your prayers and answers, but he also doesn't like the fact that you get instant results in prayers. That's why you must violently break forth praying in the spirit on issues that have refused to go.
May be that issue has refused to go because you do not yet have or know the will of God that Will commit Him to respond. Well, that is taken care of when you pray nn tongues, because the Holy Spirit that knows the will of God goes straight to tackle the matter, using the will of God! He knows what is in the mind of God, so He prays according to the Will of God on your behalf to set you free! No wonder Apostle Paul's prayers were always being answered. He was a man that prayed in the Spirit very often; he said he prayed in the spirit more than everyone else (l Cor. 14:14-18).

Warfare Tool
Praying in the Holy Spirit is a warfare strategy and tool for Winning battles, especially invisible ones. Our contentions In prayers are often with invisible forces that won't let us take delivery of our heritage in Christ. But when we switch to Praying in tongues, we engage-the invincible God to come down on our behalf and take over the battle.
....When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.(- Isaiah 59:19)
By praying in the Holy Spirit, we engage Him in dealing with the barriers that had hitherto been resisting our breakthroughs. As you pray in the spirit, you just find scriptures opening up to you that help you pray the Will of God on the subject matter. The battle is getting tougher, so get wilder, to break the invisible barriers holding you down.

When you seem crowded in your mind and you can't seem to locate what scripture to use in prayer; simply switch on to your prayer language and pray extensively in the spirit. If you are a Bible student, you'll find the scriptures coming back at you; that is, the correct scriptures with which to deal with the matter. The devil can't understand you, as he doesn't understand the heavenly mysteries you speak in tongues. So, pray in the spirit to lift up standards against him. I have shared with you already how I won the battle for my daughter's life. I engaged this prayer weapon in battle.
Private Access
Praying in the Spirit is a private, direct line to heaven.
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.(- I Corinthians 14:2)
Only God understands you when you pray in tongues You are speaking mysteries to your heavenly Father, calling upon Him to intervene on your behalf. You are also able to pray more effectively, because it is your spirit praying.
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself...
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth...( 1 Corinthians 14:4; 14)

The Holy Spirit energizes your spirit man in praying. It is as though you have plugged your spirit into a charger, just as when you charge your phone. Not only are you able to pray more effectively, you are also able to give thanks well when you pray in the Spirit (l Cor. 14:17) and your faith is also being built up.
But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost(Jude 20).
You also pour out spiritual waters when you pray in the Holy Spirit. This makes your environment unbearable for the devil that goes about looking for dry places to stay. No Wonder Apostle Paul said, "I will pray with the spirit, and I pray with the understanding also. " It was his secret for Victories in prayer. Paul engaged in praying earnestly by Praying in the Holy Spirit; so, his prayers were always receiving answers, for the Spirit of God was praying according to the Will of God through him.
Your rights and privileges are defined in details in the scriptures; so lay hold on them, and go forth in prayers as a warrior, and fight your way through to the victory. Learn to engage the Holy Spirit in prayers, and you are guaranteed triumphs unlimited! You shall no more lose the prayer battle!
