1) Be Spiritually filled (2) Be Spiritually Controlled (3) Be Spiritually conscious
1) Spiritually filled are those who have the Holy Spirit. In accordance to John 14 vs 16 -these are people who have the Holy Spirit.
2) Spiritually controlled-the human nature doesn't like to be controlled, its loves to do its own will which are always contrary to what God want-Galatians 5 vs 16-17, that is why we need the Holy Spirit to live in us and direct our steps to the rightful path- John 14 vs 26, Philippians 2 vs 13-15, Proverbs 16 vs 9, Proverbs 20 vs 24. A lot are spiritually filled but are not spiritually controlled, these are people who have the Spirit of God in their life but when the Spirit direct them, they disobey because they just feel their own way is the best. Learn from this disobedient prophet- 1Kings 13. Disobedient leads to destruction, dont let see things in our own way when the Holy Spirit direct us but in the way he has said it. He sees beyond what our physical eye can see. Dont just be spiritually filled, be Spiritually controlled. Be totally obedient-1Samuel 15 vs 20-29- Dont be like King Saul who was disobedient to God's word and got himself destroyed. Dont be a rising and falling Christian
3) Be Spiritually conscious- a man who has the Spirit of God in him,God revealed somethings to him but he did not take note of it or pray about it to have more understanding on what it is. When things happen they will remember it had been revealed to them, because they werent conscious of what God was revealing. Sometimes God will show them certain things but they will wave it without praying over it until it comes to pass then they will remember the Lord has shown them but they waved it not knowing it was an important information.
Sometimes the Lord speak and they doubt because they've allowed the human mind to take control over them at that time because they feel its not meant to be like that- John 10 vs 4.
A man who was told to walk to church. He feels walking will make him get to the church late. He took a bike and after an hour, he realised he was in the hospital, then he remembered he heard God spoke to him once saying- Don't take bike, walk. He said the voice came once and he didnt hear him speak after that, he said he didnt mind. That was all he could remember and that he was seeing the church and was happy he will get there early.
Has a Christian every message passed across must be taken note of, not with levity hands.
See Peter too in - Mark 4 vs 27-31,66-72
A lot who have the Holy Spirit still do not recognize his voice from that of the devil. If you are truly is sheep then you should know your shepherd voice when he calls and talk to you-John 10 vs 3-4,27
BE THAT THREE IN ONE CHRISTIAN.
In conclusion-2Thessalonians 1 vs 11-12
