BE FILLED.

Not a taste, not an occasional touch, but a fulness!
The privilege of each and every believer is to drink in, not a scant supply, but to be filled. And when we obey the divine injunction, then follows the glorious overflow.
“The world and the devil are too strong for a Christian life ‘hampered, and hindered, and limited by carnality.’” Be cleansed; be filled.
David speaks of his cup running over. Jesus tells us that out of our inmost parts shall flow rivers of living water. Therefore, to be filled is not a selfish thing, seeing we are filled for a purpose.
Be filled, and it will be easy for you to rejoice. The great needjust at present is happy, bright jubilant Christians, therefore be filled.
The Israelites were making good headway on their march toward the Promised Land, when all at once they suffered a sad reverse. We read in Numbers 14, they lifted up their voices and murmured, and for so doing they were sent back into the wilderness. Be filled, and the murmuring spirit will take its flight. Be filled, and you will rejoice evermore. Be filled, and you will pray without ceasing. Be filled, and you will in everything give thanks. O reader, be filled! Be filled!! Be filled!!!—Christian Worker.
