Day 14: God Will Fill You

Come Before Him in Worship: Reflect back on your life for a few minutes and remember the faithfulness of God in your story. Praise him for how he has led, strengthened, redeemed, and restored. Give him thanks for his abiding presence with you through every season of life.

Reflect: This week we have asked God our Father to fill us with the Holy Spirit. As we’ve seen, this is a prayer our God delights to answer! We studied how he has specifically told us to ask (Luke 11:13). This filling of the Holy Spirit provides the supernatural power and presence of God that then enables us to live the life he has called us to. This is the same power that transformed the disciples from simple and fearful fishermen to fearless proclaimers of Jesus before the rulers and authorities of the Jews who then sought their lives. They healed, performed miracles, and brought thousands out of the darkness and into a saving faith in Jesus in the power of the Spirit. Do you believe that you can have that same power in you today? This is the heritage of the children of God! Come and let the love of God overwhelm you! Let us be people who stand in faith on every word that God has told us and wait expectantly for him to prevail and achieve in us more than we could ever ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20)!

Respond in Prayer: Father, in Psalm 139 it says that you knit me together in my mother’s womb. What did you have in mind when you created me? What do You desire for us to do together that we haven’t done yet? Today I will trust that as I continue to ask and seek you, that you will fill me with all the fullness of God. Jesus, it is the joy of my life to know and walk with you. Thank you for grafting me into your story and giving me a role in carrying out the dreams of your heart. I trust that you will give me your power to enable us to run together in your purposes and plans.
