Does the Sabbath keeping fill you with the Spirit?
John 4:23 “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.†The Holy Spirit fills those who are obedient to the truth. We choose to be baptised in water but God decides baptises us with the Holy Spirit. As Author of the Bible, He only seals those whose faith is reflected in obedience. 2 Pet. 1:21 “For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.†We are not saved by what we do, still, what we do reflects our faith and obedience to God. By rebelling against Bible truth and not adhering to God’s Word will cost us eternity. We need a Friend in high places and, indeed, we need to be sealed by the Holy Spirit. Heb. 12:29 “For our God is a consuming fire.†If we want to live in His presence we need to be Spirit filled: Ps.91:1 “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.â€
