🌿When Heaven Writes: The Untold Gift of Prophet TB Joshua
🕊️ The Power of the Holy Spirit and the Mystery of Writing in Tongues: A Rare Gift in Our Generation
“What comes from above is above all… The Holy Spirit is real.” — John 3:31
Among the extraordinary spiritual gifts that God entrusted to Prophet TB Joshua, one that remains largely unseen in the modern-day Apostolic ministry was a divine and rarely discussed ability or gift—writing in tongues—a sacred manifestation of heaven’s language, delivered through the pen of a humble servant of the most high God.
While many believers are familiar with speaking in tongues as described in Acts 2 and 1 Corinthians 14, writing in tongues unveils another dimension of Spirit-led communication. Prophet TB Joshua, a man deeply saturated in God’s presence, exercised this sacred gift not for attention, but as a deeper expression of spiritual intimacy and revelation. Prophet TB Joshua wrote in heavenly language as a form of divine communication and spiritual discernment.
As confirmed by both his followers and eyewitnesses of which I, Samuel, am one, this was not done for show or attention, but as a sacred, Spirit-led act to demonstrate a deeper revelation of God’s presence. He often wrote in this language during personal one-on-ones and in practically every meeting he had with the people that had encountered him during his lifetime here on earth.
“The greatest way to use life is to spend it on something that will outlive it.”
— Prophet TB Joshua
🌿He Wrote What Others Could Only Speak
In John 8:6–8, Jesus stooped to write on the ground—words not understood by men. He didn’t speak them aloud. He wrote them in silence. What He wrote wasn’t for show—it was spirit communication. And just like Jesus, Prophet TB Joshua moved in this rare dimension of intimacy with the Holy Spirit.
“Sometimes when people speak, I just listen and nod my head. But I ask myself—how can someone speak a language they cannot write, do not understand, and cannot even translate?”
— Prophet TB Joshua
🕯️ Daniel and the Writing on the Wall — Daniel 5:5–28
Another biblical example of heavenly writing is found in Daniel 5. During King Belshazzar’s feast, a mysterious hand appeared and wrote on the wall: “MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN.” None could read or interpret it except Daniel, who was filled with the Spirit of God.
“Then Daniel answered the king, ‘This is the inscription that was written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN. Here is what these words mean…’” (Daniel 5:25–26)
This demonstrates that God can communicate through written language requiring spiritual discernment to interpret—just as the gift of writing in tongues was manifested in our generation through Prophet TB Joshua.
A Language You Cannot Learn—Only Receive
TB Joshua taught that the language of the Spirit has no alphabet, no phonetics, no curriculum. You cannot learn it in school. You cannot be taught by men. God Himself teaches it.
“The Holy Spirit will speak through us in a language we have not learned.” - TB Joshua
Apostle Paul taught in 1 Corinthians 2:13
“When we tell you these things, we do not use words that come from human wisdom. Instead, we speak words given to us by the Spirit, using the Spirit’s Words (heavenly language) to explain spiritual truths”
And yet—this humble prophet not only spoke the language—he wrote it. From right to left. Sometimes in lines, sometimes in symbols. Not for display, but for divine communication.
He once said:
“I can write a letter in this language. I can even write a book. The problem is, there’s nobody to read it—nobody to live it.”
This was not mysticism—it was spirit reality. A revelation, not for boasting, but for stirring hunger in the hearts of believers.
📘 A Language Taught by God
“This one I cannot teach you. It is God who teaches. He will inspire you.” — Prophet TB Joshua
Jesus affirmed in John 6:45:
“As it is written in the scriptures, They will all be taught by God.”
Writing in tongues is not learned from men. It flows from a surrendered heart and a Spirit-filled life. It is written with the hand of obedience and the ink of intimacy.
Writing in tongues is not for performance. It is for prayer, for praise, for prophetic intimacy with God. It is sacred.
What Happened at Pentecost, Happened Again
In one unforgettable encounter captured on video, Prophet TB Joshua ministered to foreign visitors and began writing on the wall in tongues—declaring that this very moment was like Pentecost. The atmosphere was thick with glory. Those present spoke in languages they’d never learned.
Prophet TB Joshua said:
When the power of anointing comes, for those in the deepest relationship with God, you will be given the:
Power of vision
Healing
Prophecy
Speaking in tongues - 2 Corinthians 13:1
Writing in tongues - you will not only speak it but also write it. It will become your language — the Heavenly Language.
A well known Man of God, Kobus Van Rensburg, from South Africa confirmed he understood what TB Joshua had written—though they had never met.
“He said after something came out of him—unrighteousness came out, and righteousness came in… and he began to speak in tongues, a heavenly language.”
🧾 A Firsthand Testimony from a Disciple
In a private message dated July 29, 2021, Edward Gardiner—an eyewitness to TB Joshua’s ministry—shared this insight:
“I have asked personally and many others did about his handwritings. He used to say great men have great habits, and that was one of the habits given to him.”
He further added:
“He explained it to us as a greater level of gift, (as with so much in his life, he was characterised by a higher level of grace in all things).”
Here is the detailed facebook messenger conversation with Edward Gardiner 
🔥 A Deeper Expression of the Holy Spirit
Most believers know tongues as spoken utterance. But TB Joshua moved beyond this.
Gardiner noted:
“He not only had the one Apostle Paul spoke of, in which the mind is unfruitful, but he could translate tongues, speak it like a language, and write it.”
This tri-fold capacity—speaking, interpreting, and writing—reveals a rare apostolic depth. Gardiner described a disciples’ meeting where TB Joshua demonstrated the gift live, praying for a brother to receive tongues and then translating both ways.
🔥A Close Shot At These Heavenly Writings
These are Practical Gifts Received From Prophet TB Joshua where these handwritings were captured. Be blessed as you pray. Place your hand on the screen and on top of these hand writings in faith, knowing that distance is not a barrier. Please don’t forget to share your testimony of breakthrough afterwards.
Let His Life Stir Your Hunger
“You can be greater than me. Do you believe that?”
“I want you to be more committed—not to me, but to God.”
This was the cry of a man who walked closely with the Spirit. He didn’t flaunt his gifts. He multiplied them in others. He provoked hunger, not applause.
Today, the world still speaks of his healing, prophecy, and deliverance. But few speak of the secret fire that birthed it all: the Holy Spirit.
🙇 Why This Gift Matters Today
✨ Confirms the Reality of the Holy Spirit
In a skeptical age, writing in tongues affirms that the Spirit is still active—moving in mystery, power, and reverence.
✨ A Call to Deeper Intimacy
TB Joshua never used this gift for performance. Its purpose was personal, often revealed in prayer or prophetic direction—a model for humility in the use of spiritual gifts.
✨ Inspiration for the Next Generation
“PTBJ has brought so much spiritual awakening to the church… I am sure such a gift will become more prominent…” — Edward Gardiner
It is time for believers to hunger for more than spiritual activity. It’s time to pursue the Giver over the gift.
✨Gifts Flow from Relationship, Not Religion
Prophet TB Joshua’s ministry reminds us:
- Spiritual gifts follow spiritual discipline.
- Revelation is given, not taught.
- Heavenly languages are for heavenly lives.
Final Word: The Greatest Way to Use Life…
“The greatest way to use life is to spend it on something that will outlive it.”
— Prophet TB Joshua
Prophet TB Joshua spent his life hearing heaven, writing heaven, releasing heaven.
Not for show—but for souls.
Not for titles—but for truth.
He left behind not just miracles, but a model. A way of life that whispers:
“Draw near to God—and He will draw near to you.”
🙏 Prayer
Lord, I long to walk deeper with You. I don’t want just miracles — I want Your heart. Teach me to hear You, to speak with You, and to live by the Spirit. May every word of my life be written by Your hand. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
