Filled With the Spirit

And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit. —Ephesians 5:18

There is a necessity for every one of us to be filled with God. It is not sufficient to have just a “touch,” or to be filled with a “desire.” The only thing that will meet the needs of the people is for you to be immersed in God so that whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, it may be all for the glory of God. In that place you will find that all your strength, mind, and soul is filled with a zeal, not only for worship, but for proclamation.

That proclamation will be accompanied by all the power of God, which must move Satanic power, disturb the world, and make it feel upset.

The reason the world is not seeing Jesus is because Christian people are not filled with Jesus. They are satisfied with weekly meetings, occasionally reading the Bible, and sometimes praying. Beloved, if God lays hold of you by the Spirit, you will find that there is an end of everything and a beginning of God so that your whole body becomes seasoned with a divine likeness of God.

Fill me, Holy Spirit. May those people with
whom I come into contact daily see only
Jesus when they look at my life. Make
me a divine likeness of God. Amen.
