(ask)
And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,
[Ephesians 5:18]
This isn't about wine. (an alcoholic beverage made of grapes.)
This isn't even about drunkeness. (having temporary disorientation of the senses)
It's about dissipation!
A debaucherous,
EXTRAVAGANT,
misuse of life.
Whatever takes priority over God in my life,
IS A WASTE OF MY LIFE.
- full of CONVENIENCE rather than obendience (the easy way out)
- full of compromise instead of committment ( I love my sin more than my Savior )
- full of CORROSion preferrably over regeneration (I'm breaking down…and f a l l i n g a p ar t…)
…but be filled with the Spirit
Depend on
Jesus
for your life
fill = be carried along by
to be overcome by
to be filled with
power
greater
than your own
- are commanded to be filled
- can only be filled by God
- continue to be filled
the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to
magnify
& GLORIFY
me
JESUS
