Today’s devotion is from Acts 11:24 (TPT)
Barnabas was a good man, full of the Spirit of holiness, and he exuded a life of faith. Because of his ministry even more crowds of people were brought to the Lord!
Tank up and make sure that you are full of the Holy Spirit each and every day…
Jesus, speaking of the Holy Spirit said, “let those who are thirsty come to me and drink, and out of their bellies will flow rivers of living waters”. Ephesians 5:18 says, ‘Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit.’
When you are full to overflowing with the Holy Spirit and with His power and anointing, rivers of miracles, rivers of anointing and rivers of Holy Ghost power will continually flow forth out of your innermost being.
How do we tank up?
The bible says in Acts 2:4, ‘And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.’ We tank up by speaking in tongues! How does speaking in tongues fill you with the Holy Ghost and power? God creates with words and God does practically everything He does with words… When we speak in tongues, our spirit man is speaking words that are led by the Spirit in a Heavenly language. Those ‘Spirit words’ are words that release life, power, anointing, the gifts of the Spirit, miracles and supernatural ability.
When we speak in tongues we edify and build ourselves up. (1 Corinthians 14:4) The Greek word for ‘edify’ literally means to build a huge edifice, a huge massive structure… when we speak in our heavenly language we are making declarations on the highest level of faith. Those words of faith release God’s super onto our natural so that we can operate in His supernatural power.
So, tank up every day and throughout every day and walk in the supernatural, life giving anointing and power of God, in Jesus Name!
