Cool is the word we use when we are amazed with awesome things like gadgets, movies, songs, hip people, etc.
God created heaven and earth. All things come from Him. He is the Alpha and the Omega. He created Adam from dust and Eve from Adam’s rib. Ain’t that cool? Do you remember the parting of the Red sea to save the people of Israel? How about the manna that fell from heaven? Have you ever wanted to be inside Noah’s Ark? How about water turned into wine and blind men were able to see? And how about Lazarus rising from the dead? God gave His only begotten Son to save us sinners. Ain’t that the coolest? And please read the Revelation about Jesus’ second coming and you will know how cool it is. Those are some of the coolness of God’s love. It is so cool that words are not enough to describe it. His wrath is to be feared, yes, but with His immense love for us He gives mercy.
Ephesians 5:18 - Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
When people get drunk the power of wine or liquor controlled them and they do stupid things…immoral things. But what about being filled with the Holy Spirit? Acts 1:8 - 8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth." Ephesians 5:22-23- 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control… Being filled with the Holy Spirit leads to Christ-likeness. The power of the Holy Spirit transforms us. When we want to change and we rely on ourselves, we got frustrated because we couldn’t do it. But if we rely on the power of the Holy Spirit , we’ll be surprised how we become a new person… a better person. We give up things that we couldn’t let go of. We have joy in everything even when we are at our lowest. Super COOL indeed. Galatians 2:20 20"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. So, being filled with the Holy Spirit is letting Jesus to take control of our lives…living by faith in Him.
