Spirit filled Life (Luke4:18).
The Spirit of the Lord is Upon Me The ministry and work
of the Lord Jesus Christ while on this earth. The Holy Spirit was resting upon Him without measure.
It is the same Holy Spirit that wants to indwell us so that God maybe glorified in our lives. For ministry and service the Holy Spirit is indispensable and without Him our ministry will be powerless and unproductive. The Holy Spirit is called the 'Spirit of the Lord', the One that proceeds from God the Father-John 14:16.-Acts1:4.
What God promises is a) good, and b) Necessary.
Many believers are Baptized in the Holy Spirit but their lives lack the Power simply because they focus on the works of the H.S. and not on Christ Himself.
Jesus said, 'Upon Me'. For the H.S. to rest upon someone He must find suitable ground. Remember Noah and the dove? Do we want the H.S. to rest upon us? Make sure your heart is a suitable place for the H.S. to rest and have control of your life.
Was the work and ministry of the Lord Jesus something not to be imitated or to look upon? He
said on one occasion, 'The works that I do you will do and greater......' John 14:12, HOW? They were accomplished by the power of the H.S. filling ordinary fishermen and simple believers after Pentecost, but remember what preceded their ministry. . . . the teaching of the Master and 10 days of prayer in one accord.
