WHAT IT MEANS TO BE FURNISHED BY THE SPIRIT

And be not drunk with wine, whereby is excess ; but be full of the Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 KJV

Rodney Howard Browne teaches that when we are full of the Lord God, He brings us into a greater revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ

the Lord is the way to the father. The more we are filled the more we recognize and depend upon Jesus. The Holy Spirit brings us into a life of private union with and constant reliance on the Lord Jesus Christ. N.B. To be crammed with the Spirit is to be filled with Jesus.

This is the picture of a Spirit-filled man-full of God's glory-leaving no room for the flesh.

John 15:11 KJV - These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy could be full.
John 17:13 KJV - And now come I to thee ; and these things I talk in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
After Jesus had spoken of the promise of the Spirit and we should abide in the Vine ( in Him ), He told of the joy that would follow. He said,'My joy will remain in you and your joy will be full.'
The fullness of joy wipes out the discomfort, doubt, fear and sorrow.
4. There'll be a release of the Fruit of the Spirit from the heart of the Spirit-filled man and girl.

2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing. 7 You ran well. Who obstructed you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion doesn't come from Him who calls you. 9 A little leaven leavens the entire lump. Ten I trust in you, in the Lord, that you'll have no other mind ; but he who difficulties you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is .

Darrell Swanson - About the Author:


Rodney Howard Browne discusses truth and freedom. In prior days, we studied the tenet of gaining freedom by knowing God's Word. For us to take in the truth, we must do more than simply read or learn by heart Scripture ; we must also meditate on it - then the Holy Spirit will teach us to apply the Word to our lives. Rodney Howard Browne teaches that God does not simply free us from old negative thought patterns and feelings of inadequacy ; He frees us to serve Him with our entire being.
