Can't Have too much of The Spirit of God

Ministry Wednesday: Can't have too much of the Spirit of God

The Holy Spirit is a person. I know how controversial that statement can be in some circles but it is true to be fair. To be fair, if I can call myself a person, then the Holy Spirit should be more of a person. We know He speaks, He can be grieved, He leads, He inspires, He helps, He gave birth to us, we were born of Him in the New birth, He dwells in us, I don't know if we can use the word "dwell" for something that don't have personality, He can be pleased with what we do, meaning He has a will and should be a free moral agent also... I wonder then how anyone could say He isn't a person. If He isn't, then we aren't.

But He has other attributes like being an invisible fluid, I don't know a scripture yet that presents Him as solid material, He's either described with gaseous elements like the wind and fire or as liquid substances like water and oil, all of which flow.

We are anointed with Him to do whatever we have been sent to do. The accomplishment of the assignments given us is dependent on the space we give Him to fill in order to work within us. We know that the manifestation of the Spirit is given to everyone of us for the benefit of all.

He works with the gifts given us to bring help to our callings to become mature and fruitful. Without the Holy Spirit the believer can do nothing.

The power of the New Creation person and the fulfillment of our purposes and assignments is in the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ said, we shall receive power only when the Holy Spirit comes upon us. Jesus became Christ only by the Holy Spirit coming upon Him. He is the anointed One only because He was anointed of the Holy Spirit. The word 'Messiah' or 'Christ' means The Anointed One. Anointed with the Holy Spirit to be able to do those things the Father desired having taken upon Himself the nature of man.

It is out of Christ's abundant overflowing of the Spirit of God that we have received grace upon grace because He was anointed without measure. He is the baptizer in the Holy Spirit. He immersed us into the Holy Spirit. While the Holy Spirit immersed us into His body through the New Birth.
There's very little we can do without the Holy Spirit. We need to understand that till the Holy Spirit is permitted to intoxicate and take our lives over, leading, quickening our bodies and illuminating our minds, we can not live in true holiness. If we don't
Until He teaches us the word, we would lack understanding and wisdom, until He reveals divine knowledge we can not come to faith. He is the custodian of the knowledge of God and the revealer of the same. No one knows the Son, except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son, apart from those to who they are revealed, Jesus said, but it is the Holy Spirit who reveals.
Until He empowers we can not perform. He is the custodian of the omnipotence. The word gives the fuel, He is the wind and the fire and in this system incredible things happen. He and the Word are one. He is the anointing on the word with which it becomes flesh, doing good and healing all that are oppressed of the devil.

Jesus Christ had Him without measure. He gives us His water to become a well of life in us out of which flows the rivers of living waters to other people, giving life as it goes. We are vessels and pipes extending His flow of power.

Through Him we build a spiritual house to offer spiritual sacrifices unto God. We worship God as He leads. He is our worship leader. He is the environment of acceptable worship.

We can not do without Him. We can not do with just the minimum level of Him. Even just an average won't do. The truth is, we can't have too much of Him. We can't have enough of Him.

And He is willing and looking for the thirsty to fill. He is looking for the weak to empower. He is waiting for the brokenhearted to be mended. He is the comfort of the believer. The joy giver beyond a comedian. The inspiration of every innovation. The indwelling carrier of our eternal life.

Drink more and let Him express Himself better and better. Get drunk of Him, lose control to His fire within, perform at an amazing level, produce beyond normal and all the glory will go to God...we can't have too much of Him... You can have much more! Keep drinking! Get drunk, till He manifests ceaselessly!

It's a good day!
