Another stand-by is "I was in spirit on the Lord's Day". But again, where does "in spirit" mean "amen-amen-BLAH (amen)" or "O Lord Jesus - BLAH (amen)", or "Praise the Lord - BLAH" (amen)"? That's just conditioned thoughtlessness. That "get out of your mind, get into your spirit" is a formula not based on scripture. Even Paul said that he prayed with his mind exercised, cf 1 Cor 14:14-19, in contrast with the Corinthians who apparently thought that group hysteria was akin to godliness.
