We need to learn not only to be filled with the Holy Spirit but also to stay filled. We do this by becoming sensitive to His work within us. We need to know that the secret of walking in the Spirit is to immediately confess our sins and, by faith, to ask God to refill us.

. . . how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy spirit to those who ask him!

Luke 11:13

Thank You, Lord, that You have told us, “Be filled with My Spirit.” Give us the knowledge that by obeying that command we can live victoriously, to Your honor.
