The heart desire of any Christian should be to please the Lord by doing His will and fulfilling His call. Many sincerely want to do this but don't know how. So you hear them say, "I want to serve God with all my heart; I want to be on fire for Him, I want to be consistent in every activity in church, but I don't know how to stay consistent in the things of the Spirit.
One of the surest ways to constantly be aglow in the Spirit is to be "constantly filled with the Spirit". Without the Holy Spirit in your life, you can't do anything for the Lord that will be acceptable to Him or that'll make any impact in your world. There's a constant infilling of God's Spirit that you ought to be experiencing everyday of your life. God says, "be filled with the Spirit" meaning you are the one responsibility for the filling not your Pastor or your friend.
The fact that you've received the Holy Spirit doesn't mean you're always be aglow or filled what the Spirit, no! You have to always function under the control and influence of the Holy Spirit 24 hours everyday. That's how God wants you to live. Always talk the Word to everything that concerns you and never allow what's going on around you dictate your level of glowing or the level at which you should be filled. Giving attention to the Spirit will constantly bring out a glow in your life and it sure will radiate the beauty of God through you.
Further Scripture Study: Proverbs 4:18; Ephesians 5:18-19
Declare This: Dear Father, I recognize it's my responsibility to be filled with the Spirit; I have no excuse but to constantly radiate Your very life through me by staying in Your Word always in Jesus name Amen.
