an overflowing faith

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The passage in Ephesians 5:17-19 talks about not being ignorant but understanding the will of the Lord. It emphasizes the importance of being filled with the Holy Spirit instead of getting drunk with wine. The filling of the Holy Spirit is like a total immersion in the medium of the Holy Spirit, and it leads to a life of abundance, enthusiasm, passion, and fervor in the things of the Lord. Being filled with the Holy Spirit comes through personal experiences with Christ Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit. This impartation of power and authority gives us the ability to have power over diseases, demons, poverty, and more. We can attain this state of being by speaking among ourselves, worshiping the Lord, and always giving thanks to God.

The filling of the Holy Spirit gives authority and power to believers over disease, demons, poverty, and other destructive habits. The New Testament shows that the Church prioritized filling people with the Holy Spirit before assigning them positions. Diligence and fervent spirituality are required to receive and maintain the filling of the Holy Spirit. Christians must live a life of continuous surrender to the Lord, congregating with other believers, reading the Word, and praying. The world is deteriorating because the Church is weak and not seeking the filling of the Holy Spirit. Many Christians are intimidated and do not testify about their faith. The abundance of the heart should make the mouth speak, and believers filled with the Holy Spirit should have a witness in the community. When a Church is filled with the Holy Spirit, there is fear in the town, and people take notice of the Gospel. Christians should not allow themselves to be gagged by the world but should testify about Christ even if they are persecuted.


The Church needs to be filled with the Holy Spirit to make an impact on society. Christians should not be intimidated by the world but rather be indoctrinated by the Word of God. The Church needs to pray for the Kingdom of God to come on earth as it is in heaven and be a gardener of the world by imparting the presence of God in every place. This requires a militant spirituality and a fervent Church in the Spirit. Believers should fight for their salvation, the salvation of their loved ones, and the anointing of the Church. They should seek the filling of the Holy Spirit and process power from above to maintain it. The goal is to be committed to God and instruments in His hands.


The speaker prays for various members of a church community, asking for them to be filled with the Holy Spirit and for the church to be saturated with God's Presence. They express a desire for a deeper, more radical spirituality and a willingness to serve as instruments in God's hands.


Let's go to the Word of the Lord, Ephesians 5:17 to 19. And I want to talk brothers about a life, an overflowing, superabundant faith. Ephesians chapter 5, verse 17 says, "Therefore do not be foolish." The word foolish has a very negative connotation in Spanish. In the original Greek the word is 'asofoi' which means 'not wise', in other words do not be ignorant. It is something that the Word of God is always calling us not to be ignorant of the things of the Spirit.


So let's not be ignorant, don't be clueless about spiritual things in other words. Therefore do not be foolish but understand. Do not be asofoi if you do not sofoi, be understood, be learned, learned and wise about what the Lord's Will is, what the Lord's Will is. In other words, the Lord does not want us to be children, says the Word, that we are led by doctrines of error from one place to another because we do not know the Word of the Lord. Let us know what the Will of God is for our lives, for our churches, for our ministry.
