How To Be Filled With The Holy Spirit

by

Temptation is not a sign of weakness but the training ground of strength. When Jesus faced the devil in the wilderness, He was not tempted three times only, but continually for forty days — and every victory of obedience enlarged the Spirit’s power within Him. The same pattern holds for us. Each temptation the Lord allows is permitted for our strengthening, as a soldier’s trials forge discipline and courage. When we resist, the Holy Spirit occupies the ground we refuse to yield, until the old struggle between flesh and spirit gives way to a new reality — Christ reigning within, and His power resting upon us.

The blood covenant is the beginning of our relationship with God—but it is not the end.

What Does It Mean To Be a Living Sacrifice? A friend asked me this question recently. To be forced to think about the scriptures one knows so well is a huge blessing.
Romans 12:1 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
Actually, I believe the answers are all contained within the scripture!
