BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 1, Exodus 2, Exodus 3, Matthew 26:1-30, Psalm 19:1-6

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Acts 9:17-22

17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.

20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

21 But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?

22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

MEMORY VERSE:
Luke 11:13-“`”If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”“`

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
Your strength lies with your intimacy with God.

THE MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we further examined how you can stay continually filled with the Holy Spirit. We stressed that you need to daily stir up the anointing you received and ask God for greater measure for your divine assignment everyday. We also stressed that you wholeheartedly thirst for the Living Water and drink deeply. Finally, we emphasised that you must decide to walk obediently with God everyday. Today, we will examine more of these steps.

Beloved, in order to stay continually filled with the Holy Spirit, you should ask the Father to fill you afresh with the Holy Spirit daily. To avoid physical dehydration, we drink plenty of water on a daily basis. Similarly, for us to stay spiritually healthy, active and filled, we should drink of the Holy Spirit regularly and ensure that He fills us. Therefore, in faith, I encourage you to ask the Father to fill you and by faith, receive the infilling, in the name of Jesus.

Another way you can stay continually filled with the Spirit of God is to continually focus your eyes on the vision of a great revival and harvest. This makes you dissatisfied with powerlessness, apathy, lukewarmness, lack of passion for souls and unrighteousness that pervade the world today.

It will also make you pray and act as God’s change agent. In Matthew 5:6, the Bible affirms, “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” I encourage you to hunger for more of what God has for believers.

In addition, you will stay continually filled with the Holy Spirit by receiving impartation from others who are filled with the Holy Spirit: your pastors, other anointed and godly individuals in your church or city. Iron sharpens iron!

Beloved, every believer was made to manifest the glory of God and host His presence. By desiring more of God, honouring the Holy Spirit and surrendering your heart to Him, you will stay continually filled and overflowing in the Holy Spirit on a daily basis. Also, when you allow the Holy Spirit to fill you, you will receive healing, deliverance, empowerment to prosper, divine direction and wisdom from on high.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING
1. Father, fill me afresh with the Holy Spirit today, in the name of Jesus.
