Fourth, the will of God is to be filled with the Holy Spirit. “Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is” (Ephesians 5:17). Again, we see that understanding the will of God is a good thing. But if we keep reading in Ephesians 5 we’ll see that the Lord’s will is that we don’t get drunk and that we are filled with the Holy Spirit. Which, in turn, means addressing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing to the Lord with all our hearts; giving thanks always and for everything; and submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
