POSSESSED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

What does it mean to be possessed by the Holy Spirit? To be possessed means to be fully occupied. Self must be crucified for full occupation. There cannot be 2 occupants at the same time. Either the Holy Spirit is in control or the self. To be possessed is to be occupied by the Holy Spirit. Only total surrender to Him can avail this. As long as you are in the flesh you will shift your focus. It requires constant vigilance to stay focused. Most of us are unconscious of what we do. We live our lives on automatic pilot. We go about doing our daily business in automatic mode. Our mind is somewhere else while we drive. This is living in unconsciousness. We are programmed in a way that limits creativity. We live a life controlled by our stories. We have stories of others too which boxes them in. We perceive our world through our lenses and think that it is reality. Yet we know all that is an illusion. When we lose a sense we realize how much the loss handicaps us. That wakes us up to consciousness. Any dramatic change like a life event wakes us up. Change sometimes occurs only when events occur. Our natural tendency is to default to our set program. In the Holy Spirit, this can change. He takes over and He changes my outlook. He changes my programming, so I will see and do things as Jesus did. I will do things as I see the Father doing. His works will I also do.
