Be Full of the Spirit

 
When Satan attacks you are usually on the verge of something awesome. The Devil doesn't want good to win over, so that is when He is really on the prowl!



Galatians 5:16-17 - Plan to walk in the spirit and be prepared. Use God as a cloak of protection!

Ephesians 4:29 - Always be leery of the words that you speak. You are a banner of God's love and a door to the truth - don't cloud it with foul talk of this world. Anger is not sin - it is what you do with it. The same is true of any emotion... it is how you deal with it and what you let that emotion turn into. We all get angry and we all have times where we feel a way that is less than desirable, but if you let that emotion turn into negative actions, that is when you lose control to Satan. Romans 7 - There is a constant battle between the flesh and The Spirit. Make sure the flesh is not taking control!

We were created by God for worship. When we don't worship we are missing a key piece of our existence. Amos 3:3 - Can two walk together if they are not agreed? No they can not! The same is with The Spirit and our flesh - we must desire that which The Spirit desires so that we can be whole and walk with The Lord as he created us to do. We have The Spirit within us, it is important to always live in a way that is pleasing to Him.

Ephesians 5:9-21

God is more willing to share with us than we are to share with our kids. Can you imagine that? How much would you give your kids? Is there anything you wouldn't do for them? It is the same with God. We are His children and He loves us and wants the best for us. Luke 11:13

If you aren't filled with The Spirit it is because you don't want to be. The choice is yours, make sure that you choose right! The Lord wants to dwell in you, invite him in! He has promised The Spirit, ask for it! If you aren't full of The Spirit - you are simply full of yourself!
