There’s a constant filling of the Spirit that you ought to be experiencing daily. God says, “be filled with the Spirit”, meaning it’s your responsibility to be filled. He also lets you know how to do it – He says, “Speaking to yourselves in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs…” this doesn’t mean speaking to one another; it means I’m talking to me and you’re talking to you!
Words are important in the Kingdom of God. God wants you to speak to yourself in Psalms and hymns and Spiritual songs (Ephesians 5:18-19). As you do, you are constantly being filled with the Spirit, and it becomes impossible for you to despair, be frustrated or despondent in life.
But you can extinguish that fire by speaking negatively. When you say things like, “life is so hard; things are so bad; I don’t know what’s happening to me; I’m so frustrated…” You actually extinguish the fire of God’s Spirit in your life. Rather than talk yourself down, there’s something good you can say to you! You can begin by speaking to yourself in psalms and hymns and Spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord. This would cause joy to well up within you and you’ll be strengthened, for the Bible says the joy of the Lord is your strength. Practice this today!
