Being Filled with the Holy Spirit
“But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” Galatians 5:16
Being filled with the Holy Spirit involves the willingness to obey God’s Word and the strength to yield in its guidance. It also involves discerning what is pleasing in God’s eyes and what is not. If we live each day being led by the Holy Spirit, we will gain wisdom, extend grace, and be able to resist temptations.
However, being filled with the Holy Spirit doesn’t happen overnight. Certain disciplines must be practiced consistently every minute of our lives to be more like Jesus. We are to devote ourselves first to studying His Word, continuing to meet with our spiritual family, serving God, and witnessing for Him.
