"PRACTISE BEING FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT ALWAYS".
"And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit" (Ephesians 5:18).
Our opening verse gives us the secret to living the transcendent life: it’s being filled with the Spirit. This isn’t an option for you as a Christian, if you’re going to be effective in your Christian walk. You must be filled with the Spirit always. You might ask, “Is that really possible? Can we always be perpetually ‘high’ on the Holy Ghost?”
Emphatically yes! The Word says we can, and shows us how in the ensuing verses 19-21 of our opening scripture. It reads, “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.”
Every day, practise being filled with the Spirit. Before you leave home, get full of the Holy Ghost! Before you lead in worship, before you go out for evangelism, before you go to work, be filled with the Spirit. When you’re full of the Spirit, the words that come out of you aren’t your words but God’s. Therefore, everything you say will come forth with power and surely come to pass.
When you’re full of the Holy Ghost, no matter what happens to you or around you, you’re unflustered. Like Paul, you’d say, “None of these things move me.” This is life beyond the ordinary plane of perception; life beyond the comprehension and ability of the human mind; life beyond this world!
This super life is what Jesus brought to us. He said, “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)” (John 10:10 AMPC). You’re not an ordinary person. Many Christians live ordinary lives, because they don’t get themselves filled with the Spirit often. If you’re continually filled with the Spirit, your life will be an unending stream of the supernatural.
We’ve been called into a life of unending success. The secret is being filled with the Spirit: You’d be enabled supernaturally to see things at a higher plane and live the higher life in Christ.
CONFESSION
I live the higher life in Christ; I walk in absolute victory and dominion over this world! I live above, reign over, and subdue life’s circumstances and situations, to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal King of glory. Hallelujah!

I affirm that God has granted me favor, peace, and ensuring fruitfulness, prosperity, and productivity in every area of my life!
Everything in my world conforms with God’s will and destiny for me.
The Father has counted me faithful to commit unto me the ministry of reconciliation.
I am chosen and anointed by the Holy Spirit to preach the Gospel with power and impact my world with His divine presence.
I have the supernatural wisdom and ability to always do things right the first time.
The grace for perfection is at work in me, as I diligently carry out the responsibilities which have been committed to me.
I refuse to be quiet about the Gospel, for it is the power of God unto salvation.
That power is released to turn men from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God as I proclaim the Gospel today. Hallelujah!
I am full of God’s might; for Christ, the embodiment of all knowledge, wisdom, and power is alive and exalted in me, working and touching lives through me!
Glory to God.
