How To Be Filled With The Spirit

Our key passage for this series is 1st Timothy 4.7. Paul says we are to discipline our selves towards godliness. What are the disciplines that encourage a godly life? I call them The Disciplines of a Godly Life. The 2nd discipline is the Discipline of Spirit Filled Living.

Last week we examine the Discipline of Scripture. Time alone with God in His Word, the Scriptures, is the great necessity of our spiritual lives. We need to be alone with God daily! We need to find times to get away alone. Psalm 16:11 You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

The Lord God of the Universe wants to Arrange your life, and Accompany you trip through life, and authorize everything needed from now on.
This morning the 2nd Discipline of a Godly Life: Spirit Filled Living. Jesus explained the Holy Spirit in our lives by using the image of a strong river of water flowing out of us. Lets turn there to John 7.37-38.
