Fuel of the Spirit – CD Swanson
I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship, (Exodus 31:3 NKJV).
An automobile needs fuel to be productive and requires it to get to our destination. And much like an automobile, our spirit needs “fuel” to get to our eventual destination. When our spirit is running low, we are apt to go in another direction, one that could prove to be dangerous.
What is the fuel of the spirit? God, God, God, and more God.
In the turn of everyday events, and the limited time to accomplish certain scenarios or routines, we may start to “run low” on God’s fuel. When that happens, we can become sluggish in reacting to worldly situations, and that can be detrimental to being fruitful and helpful to our family, friends, neighbors, and ourselves too.
When we do not partake in “God’s daily fuel” for our spirits, we begin to slide down a slippery slope, and could become inept in our attempts to navigate our journey properly here on earth.
Opening up to meditation upon His Word, praying, and obeying His will for His purpose in life is the “golden elixir fuel of life” – fuel that not only helps with all our issues, but helps us to compensate for and overcome things that would otherwise be “impossible” to do.
With God all things are possible. Without Him nothing makes sense.
If your car is in your garage deplete of gasoline, is it worth anything? Can it do anything but “sit” in its spot? Can it go anywhere?
So too is our spirit.
Fill yourself with the best fuel of all, “God” and His mercy and love.
Check your “fuel” today, and if you are low…it’s time for a “fill-up.” Amen!
“Father, fill my spirit with Your powerful fuel, may I never run on empty, and always be replete, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
