Quotes

• For the faithful, Spirit-filled Christian, every place becomes a place of prayer.
  John F. MacArthur

  The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people. Votes: 0
  
  Aiden Wilson Tozer

  We are commanded to be full, and yet we are not the filler; the Spirit is. The answer to this predicament in the New Testament is that God has ordained to move into our lives with fullness through faith.

  John Piper

  We must set before our own soul the banquet of promises that God has made to us and feed our faith to the full. Then it may be said of us as it was of Stephen and Barnabas: “They were filled with faith and with the Holy Spirit.”

  John Piper

  Nobody stays full of the Spirit all the time — no one is always totally joyful and submissive to God and empowered for service. But this should still be our aim, our goal, our great longing.

  John Piper 

  God commands us to be filled with the Spirit, and if we are not filled, it is because we are living beneath our privileges.
  
  Dwight L. Moody
