How can you be filled with the Holy Spirit?

You can be filled with the Holy Spirit through faith. You became a Christian by faith. You should walk in the Spirit by faith. You do not have to beg God for what He has already said is already yours.

Several factors contribute to preparing your heart for the filling of the Holy Spirit by faith.

  1. You must desire to live a life that will please the Lord.
  2. You must confess any sin which the Holy Spirit calls to your remembrance and claim His forgiveness.
  3. You must be willing to surrender the control of your life to Christ according to the command of God.

Again, we are not filled with the Holy Spirit because we desire to be filled; not because we confess our sins or present our bodies to our Lord as a living sacrifice. We are filled by faith and by faith alone.

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you any unconfessed sin.

Claim the filling of the Holy Spirit by faith on the basis of God's command (Ephesians 5:18) and God's promise (1 John 5:14-15).

Do you sincerely desire to make Jesus Christ your Lord and be controlled and empowered by the Holy Spirit? If so, pray this suggested prayer and ask God to fill you.

Prayer

Dear Father, I need You. I acknowledge that I have been in control of my own life and as a result, I have sinned against You. I thank You that You have forgiven my sins through Christ's death on the cross for me. I now invite Christ to take control of the throne of my life. Fill me with the Holy Spirit as you command me to be filled. You promised in your Word that You will fill me if I ask in faith. I pray this in the authority of the name of Jesus Christ. As an expression of my faith, I now thank You for filling me with your Holy Spirit and for taking control of my life. Amen.
