The Bible commands the believer to be filled with the Holy Spirit.And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18).The Bible does not give any set formula for being filled with the Holy Spirit. There is not a series of stages which a person must go through. Nor is there a need to wait for the filling of the Spirit. The filling is available to every believer.
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:16).
Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high (Luke 24:49).But this statement of Jesus was directed at His disciples. They were told to wait in Jerusalem until the Day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit would descend in a permanent way upon all believers. This was a once-and-for-all occurrence. Once this had happened, there was no need to wait to be filled with the Spirit.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9).
