KEY POINTS FROM THE MESSAGE

Why Must We Maintain the Glow? ²²

Satan will return: You need to keep him subdued as he targets your word and your faith²³. This is exemplified by Job, where Satan questioned Job's faithfulness to God ²⁴, and by Jesus, where the devil departed from Him "for a season" ²⁵and the "prince of this world" comes, but "hath nothing in me"²⁶.

There are higher heights to be achieved: "The way of those who are right is like the early morning light. It shines brighter and brighter until the perfect day"²⁷.

You need new grace every day: ²⁸

• • The Israelites needed new manna for a new day²⁹.

  • There is new mercy daily because God's compassions "fail not" and "are new every morning"³⁰.

  • There is daily renewing: "though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day"³¹.

Something else may fill you if you lose your fire: ³²This can include worldliness and sinfulness, as being "drunk with wine" is contrasted with being "filled with the Spirit"³³. It can also include evil spirits, where an "unclean spirit" returns to an empty house and brings "seven other spirits more wicked than himself"³⁴.

It establishes the gift and blessing: ³⁵Jesus' customs kept him anointed³⁶.

How to Maintain the Glow (8 Steps): ³⁷

To maintain your spiritual glow means to be filled daily with the Spirit, continuing practices that get you filled with Holy Ghost power³⁸.

THE MYSTERIES

Regular Fasting and Prayer: Fast at least once weekly and pray daily³⁹.

Tongues Speaking: "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself"⁴⁰ The Spirit of God dwelling in you will "quicken your mortal bodies"⁴¹.

Singing and Confessing the Word of God to Yourself: Be "filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord"⁴².

Thanksgiving and Praise: "Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"⁴³

Submission Based on the Fear of God: The infilling of the Holy Spirit is for the humble ⁴⁴; this includes "Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God"⁴⁵

Keep Connecting to the Impartation Through Podcasts and Messages: "The spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me"⁴⁶

Don't Forget What God Told You - Meditate on the Word of God: "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success"⁴⁷.

Practice the Word You Learn: "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves"⁴⁸. A hearer who is not a doer is like a man who forgets his own appearance after looking in a mirror⁴⁹.

CONCLUSION:

Maintaining your spiritual glow is crucial for continued spiritual growth and victory. By consistently engaging in practices like prayer, fasting, speaking in tongues, praise, submission, consuming spiritual messages, meditating on the Word, and practicing what is learned, believers can stay "aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord"50, avoiding spiritual decline and experiencing the fullness of God's blessings.

  SPECIAL QUOTES FROM DR. OKRONIPA:
  1. Without a true understanding of the Holy Spirit, it’s impossible to walk in the fullness of your divine destiny. A lack of this knowledge is the main reason many Christians fail to access the blessings God has prepared for them.
  
  2. God desires to bring you into a place where you become all He envisioned. To Him, your transformation matters far more than your possessions. Sadly, many believers attend church primarily focused on what they can get, not on who they are becoming.
  
  3. The Holy Spirit embodies the very essence of God's life. Without His presence, there is no divine vitality. That’s why, at the moment of our new birth, He comes to dwell in us, so we may share in the reality of God's life.
  
  4. The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and flows into all who have been sanctified through faith, raising a new kind of people who are the integration of divinity and humanity, empowered to carry out heaven’s mandate and accomplish God’s will on earth.
  

CONCLUSION

The Holy Spirit is a vital part of the Godhead, representing God's life, presence, and power. Understanding His nature and role is essential for believers to experience His fullness and effectiveness in their lives.
