Today I have been meditating on a specific question so much that I just HAD to write about it. This won’t be long at all. It’s more of me just jotting down some of my thoughts regarding this particular topic.
Often times throughout the scriptures there are refferences to being filled with the Spirit. Now, there are a few different types of fillings of the Spirt. Being indwelt by the Spirit (which happens at the moment of conversion), Being controlled by the Spirit, and special fillings by the Spirit (just to name a few). The Spirit filling that has been consuming my thoughts throughout the day is the second one, being controlled by the Spirit.
Probably the most common refference to this Spirit filling is Ephesians 5:18.
So what is this verse saying? Don’t get drunk, and be filled with the Spirit. Right? Yes, but let’s look a little further than that.
