The Daily Word of Righteousness
Living in the Fullness of the Spirit, #6
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. (John 6:63)
Moral darkness, spiritual corruption, is filling the earth today. The only way we can overcome the hideous moral depravity is by being so full of the Life of God that eternal life is transmitted to other people—not just the facts of redemption, but the very life of redemption.
Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. (John 3:6)
It is the Holy Spirit who assigns the gifts of ministry.
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines. (I Corinthians 12:11)
When we are filled with the Spirit of God we have the Divine authority to bind and to loose. These are the keys of the Kingdom of God.
If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven." (John 20:23)
Every aspect of Christian ministry must be sponsored by the Spirit of God, otherwise it does not have eternal value in the Kingdom of God.
That which is of the flesh is flesh, and that which is of the Spirit is spirit.
There is such an enormous need today for the Life of Jesus Christ! The moral corruption in the United States of America, for example, is horrifying. And so throughout the world!
We may fret and fume, and seek for solutions. There is one solution—the Holy Spirit of God.
The world would see Jesus. We in our flesh cannot bring Jesus to the world. Only the Holy Spirit can bring Jesus to the world. Let us do all in our power to gain more of the Holy Spirit so the chains of Satan can be broken.
Living in the Fullness of the Spirit
I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me will come one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. (Matthew 3:11)
As I said in the beginning, we of the Pentecostal movement may have stopped at tongues and a few other manifestations. We need more of the Spirit of God. We need to be filled with the Spirit of God. We need to live in the fullness of the Spirit of God at all times. We need to be baptized with the Spirit every day from now on. God grant this!
First we must choose to obey Christ in all that He said.
If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. (John 15:10)
We must obey His teaching if we would be filled with God.
Second, we must obey what the Lord tells us today.
We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him. (Acts 5:32)
To be continued.
