Day 147: Prayer for the saints to see and to seek the filling of the Spirit in its two vital aspects—the essential aspect and the economical aspect

Pray that the saints would see that the work of the all-inclusive Spirit we have received is of two aspects—the essential aspect for life and the economical aspect for power—and would seek to experience the Spirit as both the Spirit of life to live Christ and the Spirit of power to carry out Christ’s commission (John 7:38-39; 14:17; 20:22; Acts 1:8 and note 8²; 4:31; 2:4²; Hymns, #278, ss. 1-4, 7).

約七38-39—信入我的人，就如經上所說，從他腹中要流出活水的江河來。耶穌這話是指著信入祂的人將要受的那靈說的；那時還沒有那靈，因為耶穌尚未得著榮耀。

約十四17—就是實際的靈，乃世人不能接受的，因為不見祂，也不認識祂；你們卻認識祂，因祂與你們同住，且要在你們裡面。

約二十22 - 說了這話，就向他們吹入一口氣，說，你們受聖靈。

徒一8 - 但聖靈降臨在你們身上，你們就必得著能力，並要在耶路撒冷、猶太全地、撒瑪利亞，直到地極，作我的見證人。

Acts 4:31—And when they had so besought, the place in which they were gathered was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God with boldness.
