Pursuing the Spirit - Filled

Because we are Jesus people, we want all that Jesus has for us, and that means being a Spirit-empowered people. We live in a time with more Christian content and resources than ever before, yet the church can feel weaker and less effective than what we see in Scripture. The early church had far less than we do, and yet the gospel spread like wildfire because they were filled with the Holy Spirit in an extraordinary way. Jesus told His disciples to wait until they received power from the Spirit, showing that the Holy Spirit is not an optional extra but a necessity for the mission. This invites us to consider what we believe “normal” Christianity is—whether it’s shaped by tradition or by the Word of God—and to recognize the two primary works of the Holy Spirit: His indwelling work in every believer at salvation, and His ongoing infilling that empowers us again and again. As followers of Jesus, we are called to want more of God and to position ourselves for the infilling of the Holy Spirit through surrender, obedience, and persistent asking, becoming a people marked by His presence.
