Ephesians 5:18
"18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;"

When the Spirit of God is upon the life of the man, he will not lack direction, because the spirit of God will teach him all things.

The difference between the a Christian and an unbeliever is the Spirit of God.

Been filled with the Spirit of God means filled with God himself.

Ephesians 3:19
"19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."

If you want to do exploit, then thirst and hunger for the Spirit of God.
The Spirit of God doesn't come until you desire for it.

My Prayer is that God will fill us with his Spirit as we ask.

Requirements Needed For The Spirit Of God: The Holy Spirit is not for Sinners/Unbelievers.

John 14:17
"17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you."

Galatians 5:22
"22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,"

Ezekiel 36:27
"27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them."

The promise of the Spirit of God is for everybody.

Luke 11:13
"13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?"

The absence of the Holy Spirit in one's life limits the ability/capability in the service of the kingdom.

The Purpose of the Fullness of the Spirit of God

Act 1:8
"8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

We are spiritually powerless without the Spirit of God.

Romans 8:26
"26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered."

The Spirit of God gives us power to overcome challenges.
