Pastor Vlad continues the sermon seires "Towels & Titles" where He speaks about being Full of the Holy Spirit. Pastor used the example of Steven and how the devil succeed in killing him, but failed in leaking him.
Notes:
1. Being FULL of the Spirit is not only for those in MINISTRY but also in MARKETPLACE. (Acts 6:3)
Holy Spirit = Power + Wisdom + Faith (Genesis 41:38)
Power will get you out of prison.
Wisdom will open the key to the palace.
Alternative to being filled with Spirit is being filled with self (stress, sin, and Satan)
You have the Holy Spirit at salvation but being full of the Holy Spirit comes at surrender.
You can’t have fire without fuel.
If you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit, you have feed yourself on holy things. (Ephesians 5:18)
2. When you’re FULL of the Spirit your FACE changes. (Acts 6:15)
Reputation is your photo, character is your face. Without the Holy Spirit we have to repair our reputation and change our character. You don’t change your character by working on it, working on your relationship and your character will change.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23
We trust His substitutional death on the cross for our salvation but now we must yield to His substitutional life inside for our transformation.
Character is fruit of the spirit not result of my efforts.
It’s fruit, not works
It’s fruit, not fruits
It’s attitude, not action
It grows, not given
Its slow and sour before sweet
It feeds others
Don’t work on your issues, work on your intimacy. It’s not about suppressing the flesh, surrender to the Holy Spirit.
3. Holy Spirit FULLNESS impacts your FOCUS. (Acts 7:25)
Being filled with the Spirit does not mean you SKIP hellish situations, it means you don’t SPILL in them.
When I am filled with the Spirit, I am also sealed by the Holy Spirit (Eph.1:13)
Focus on heaven when faced with hell
Surrender to Savior not situation
Respond to presence not react to people
