They were poor heathen Ephesians, only lately brought out from heathendom, to whom Paul wrote this letter, —people among whom there still was stealing and lying, for they had only just come out from heathendom; but Paul said to every one of these, “Be filled with the Spirit.” God is ready to do it; God wants to do it. Oh, do not listen to the temptations of the devil, “This is only meant for some eminent people, —a Christian who has a great deal of free time to devote to prayer and to seeking after it,—a man of a receptive temperament,—that is the man to be filled with the Spirit. Who is there that dare say, “I cannot be filled with the Spirit.” Who will dare to say that? If any of you speak thus it is because you are unwilling to give up sin. Do not think that you cannot be filled with the Spirit because God is not willing to give it to you. Did not the Lord Jesus promise the Spirit? Is not the Holy Spirit the best part of His salvation? Do you think He gives half a salvation to any of His redeemed ones? Is not His promise for all, “He that believeth in me, rivers of water shall flow out of him”? This is more than fullness-this is overflow; and this Jesus has promised to everyone who believes in Him. Oh, cast aside your fears, and your doubts, and your hesitation, and say at once, “I can be filled with the Spirit; I may be filled with the Spirit. There is nothing in heaven, or earth, or hell, can prevent it, because God has promised and God is waiting to do it for me.” Are you ready to say, “I may, I can, I can be filled with the Spirit, for God has promised it, and God will give it.”?
