Cup Running Over
We are to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Take a moment and look these up:
Acts 2:4; 4:8&31; 13:9
Ephesians 3:19; 5:18
Phillipians 1:9-11
Colossians 1:3-14; 2:8&9
And in the Old Testament we are given pictures of God filling His temple (which ye are) with His presence:
2 Chronicles 5:13&14; 7:1-2
Psalm 72:9
Jeremiah 19:4
Ezekiel 43:5; 44:4
Paul commands in Ephesians 5:18, "be filled with the Spirit". Why? How else can we walk worthy of our calling? In Acts we are given many examples of the apostles (whom we admire for their boldness and faith) doing all their mighty works BECAUSE they were filled with the Spirit.
No doubt about it, we are to be filled with God's spirit and with righteousness. Are you? Whatcha gonna do about it?
