Spirit Filled Worship

Ephesians 5:15-20 (NLT) – 15 So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. 16 Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.  17 Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do. 18 Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life.  19, Instead be filled with the Holy Spirit, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, and making music to the Lord in your hearts.  20 And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
