VIII. MAIN BODY:
A. What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit of GOD?
"And I have filled him with the Spirit of God,"
Filled or "male mala" in Hebrew meaning:
1. to fill or to be full
2. to be full of
3. accomplish, confirmed, concentrate, be fenced, flow, fulness, furnish, gather, replenish, satisfy, have wholly
(Source: Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge)
Filled with the Spirit of GOD - is an excellent spirit that no man can gain by study or learning, but it is all divine effort that GOD has given to man, man already has this even before the foundation of the world. [Ruach Elohim] - the Spirit of GOD.
Our examples:
Hiram:
1 Kings 7:14 (Amplified Bible)
7:14 He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze. He was full of wisdom, understanding, and skill to do any kind of work in bronze. So he came to King Solomon and did all his [bronze] work.
Bezalel:
Exodus 31:2-3 (Amplified Bible)
31:2 See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
31:3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and ability, in understanding and intelligence, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship,
Solomon before having it, he prayed but he prayed to have political wisdom not heavenly wisdom:
1 Kings 3:7-9 (Amplified Bible)
3:7 Now, O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king instead of David my father, and I am but a lad [in wisdom and experience]; I know not how to go out (begin) or come in (finish).
3:8 Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people who cannot be counted for multitude.
3:9 So give Your servant an understanding mind and a hearing heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and bad. For who is able to judge and rule this Your great people?
We can also ask GOD not for political wisdom but heavenly wisdom from the Father of lights.
James 1:5 (Amplified Bible)
1:5 If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
James 1:17 (Amplified Bible)
1:17 Every good gift and every perfect (free, large, full) gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of all [that gives] light, in [the shining of] Whom there can be no variation [rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [as in an eclipse].
Isaiah 28:26 (Amplified Bible)
28:26 [And he trains each of them correctly] for his God instructs him correctly and teaches him.
