One look at this significant passage of scripture, in the gospels, points to the need for “new wineskins” (ie. a new creature, Gal 6:15) to receive the infilling of the “new wine;” promised to any man (woman, boy, or girl) who is IN Christ: “And who would use old wineskins to store new wine?” That was Jesus' inference to the need for “repentance” before the “baptism;” or the filling of the Spirit. “The old heart (wineskin) is only good for death, or displacement with a “new” heart (wineskin).”
[2 Cor 5:17; Matt 9:17/TLB; cf. Acts 2:38; Pastor]
The Holy Ghost is “the children's bread,” not to be withheld from all who are drawn unto Christ, by the Father.
[Mk 7:27 “let the children first be filled”; Jn 6:44]
Jesus said, “Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto Me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
[Matt 19:14; Lk 18:17]
Here's another refreshing hint of the promise, of the Spirit, that is extended: “They that hunger and thirst after righteousness shall be filled (with the Spirit).”
[Matt 5:6]
ThenSingsMySoul:
LORD, I'M THIRSTY, HUNGRY, DESPERATE
FOR YOUR PRESENCE.
LORD, I'M THIRSTY, HUNGRY, DESPERATE
FOR YOUR PRESENCE.
LET THERE BE LESS OF ME, AND MORE OF YOU;
LET THERE BE LESS OF ME, AND MORE OF YOU.
(repeat)
