What it means to be Spirit Filled and the evidence of being baptized in or filled with the Holy Spirit has taken on various meanings in the different denominational ministries today. The work of the Holy Spirit, working through men, has been an important topic from the times of the people in the Old Testament, who prophesied under the influence of the Holy Spirit, to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost and up until to this day.
In the very first Chapter of Luke’s Gospel, the work of the Holy Spirit was made known to Zacharias by the announcement of the angel Gabriel concerning John the Baptist. Furthermore, the prophecy of John being filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother’s womb was fulfilled.
In this portion of Luke, the work of the Holy Spirit is put on full display with the manifestation through the Priest Zacharias in the company of his wife Elizabeth, his relatives, and neighbors.
In preparation for the teaching, A Spirit Filled Family, please read Luke 1:57-80.
