What does it mean to be filled with the Holy Spirit?
To be filled with the Holy Spirit is to be filled with Jesus Christ, the risen Son of God, and to abide in Him. It means the Holy Spirit enables us to:
Live a holy life.
Bear spiritual fruit. According to the Lord Jesus Christ, the only way we can demonstrate that we are truly following Him is to bear fruit; which includes introducing others to our Savior as well as living holy lives. And the only way we can produce fruit is through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Some time ago, a leading theologian was asked if he felt that one could be Spirit-filled without being a witness to his way of life. His answer was an emphatic "no".
Failure to witness for Christ with our lips is disobedience, just as much as failure to witness by living holy lives is to disobey His command.
As the Holy Spirit controls us, we will mature in Christ and the fruit of the Spirit will become increasingly evident.
The Christian life is both critical and progressive. There comes a critical point in time when we first learn what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit by faith as an act of the will. As we continue to live under the Holy Spirit's control, we progress and mature in our faith.
Understand and apply the Word of God. God's Word is the basis of our spiritual growth.
Live in victory over our daily problems.
