Emptied of Self Before Filled with the Spirit

By D. L. Moody

I FIRMLY believe that the moment our hearts are emptied of pride, and selfishness, and ambition, and self-seeking, and everything that is contrary to God's law, the Holy Ghost will come in and fill every corner of our hearts. I believe many a man is praying God to fill him when he is full already. Before praying that God fill us, I believe we ought to pray him to empty us.—D. L. Moody.
