When we were baptized with water, we were also baptized by the Holy Spirit as we accepted Christ as our Lord and Savior. As we commit ourselves to Jesus Christ, we dwell on His words from the scriptures and be faithful on His promises. We follow Him and equip ourselves with His messages by meditating on His words day and night. We should always be filled by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
In Ephesians 5:18, Paul reminded the believers in Ephesus not to be full of themselves with liquor that will make their lives miserable, but instead they were told to focus on God and be filled with the Spirit.
When people have problems, they dwell on worldy answers to drink alcohol to forget their problems. Aside from that, people drink to socialize and make friends by joining parties and drink all night until they are drunk. Some fell to addiction and can't control themselves anymore. How can we turn that longing of something to drink to our desire to be filled with Holy Spirit?
Read, study, listen and share the gospel. Be filled with the good messages from God in the scriptures and apply in our daily lives. Lets be full with God's lessons from the bible so we will never be hungry and we can always share what we have to others. Our source of truth is infinite. So let's grab this opportunity to praise and worship the Lord, everyday in our lives. Let us welcome the Holy Spirit!!!
