If You Are Thirsty, You Can Be Spirit-filled

Peter Roennfeldt

The feeling of thirst tells us we are dehydrated-we need water to live. But just like we sometimes try to quench our thirst in ways that don't truly refresh us, many people try to quench their spiritual thirst with things that can never really satisfy. We need living water.

"Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, 'Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, "Rivers of living water will flow from his heart."' (When he said 'living water,' he was speaking of the Spirit, who would be given to everyone believing in him.)"-John 7:37-39

So who is the Spirit? How did Jesus relate to the Spirit? And what does this mean for us and our relationship with God?
Throughout Christian history and in the church today, the Holy Spirit is a topic littered with misconceptions, controversies and concerns. However, the Spirit is also the true Source of our conversion, transformation, growth and power for living and sharing our faith. Discover how you can be Spirit-filled-if you are thirsty.

"Finally, a practical book that unpacks the dynamic of the Holy Spirit for our lives and the God centred journey we all dream of. Peter Roennfeldt provides a rich mix of theological depth and practical application for the most under-capitalised engine room of our faith—a life filled with the Spirit of God."

"Peter Roenfeldt has been a pastor for almost 50 years and his zeal to see God’s people living to the fulness of their salvation in Christ has never waned. In this faith-inspiring book, Peter reminds us that the risen Christ promised to pour out his Spirit on every believer—to fill them. He writes to encourage us to accept and use this amazing gift that Christ offers us."
- Kevin Giles, Anglican pastor and theologian, Melbourne
"Until recently I’ve not placed much emphasis on Holy Spirit baptism and Paul’s command that all believers baptised by immersion ‘need to be continually fi lled by the Holy Spirit’ (Ephesians 5:18, as in the original). During my own personal revival in experiencing the Spirit’s daily filling, Peter Roennfeldt sent me his book, in which he applies the biblical narrative for Spirit baptism and daily filling to our great need—individually and as a church."
