Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high,
And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.
“And it shall come to pass afterward
That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your old men shall dream dreams,
Your young men shall see visions.
Today’s opening Scripture tells us that the wilderness will become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field will be counted as a forest, when the Spirit of God is poured upon us from on high. Evidently, restoration, fruitfulness and increase happen when the Spirit of God is poured upon us from on high. Why? This is because the Spirit of God is the Spirit of fruitfulness; He is the blessing of the Lord. He is the One that brings life into things. A wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field becomes a forest when there is an outpouring of the Spirit. It does not matter the situation right now, though it may look like a wilderness, at the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, there is going to be an upgrade, a change, a transformation. The wilderness can be upgraded to become a fruitful field and a fruitful field be counted for a forest by the outpouring of the Spirit. God’s plan is to take you forward and upward by His Spirit.
The Spirit of God is the Spirit of rejuvenation, the Spirit of recreation, fruitfulness, and restoration. When you are filled with the Spirit, expect mighty things to happen in your life. Are you on a project and you are not making a headway and it seems you are stranded? Get filled with the Spirit of God, the project will be concluded in grand style. Why? Because the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of fruitfulness. Have you been struggling in your walk with God? Maybe you’ve touched realms in times past, but right now, it seems like you are not even scratching the surface of that very thing that you desire in God? The Spirit of God will restore you as you get filled with the Spirit. Your dreams will come alive again, and your hopes will be revived. Listen beloved, the things that you once dreamt about, God is going to bring them to pass by His Spirit. So, get filled with the Spirit! How? Ephesians 5:18-20 tells us that as we speak to ourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in our hearts to the Lord every day, we are filled with the Spirit of God. Get filled with the Spirit, speaking, singing, and making melody to the Lord. Your life will be transformed and catapulted into glory as get filled with the Spirit. The floor is yours; go ahead and go for an infilling every day.
MY SOLID FRONT (YOUR CONFESSION):
In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I declare that I am a Spirit-filled, Spirit-controlled child of God. I speak to myself in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in my heart to the Lord; therefore, I am filled with the Spirit continually.
