Forsake All
There is the First Step in the Way To the Baptism of the Holy Spirit: we must Forsake All To Follow Christ.

Wherever sin is, there is the activity of the self.
And wherever self is active there will be sin before God.
Children of God should be angry at Satan and should detest him.
By being angry and showing abhorrence they cease experiencing the wearing down of the enemy.
This Life is a Life of Perfect Victory and Rest.
Victory and Deliverance are an Accomplished Fact.
He Ever Lives To Pray.
And in His Unceasing Intercession, He Places Himself in Living Fellowship with the Unceasing Prayer of His Redeemed Ones.
It is His Intercession that Shows Itself in Their Prayers and Gives Them Power that they never had before.
We must Always Look for God To Do Things Beyond our Expectations.
We must Ask God To Give us the Vision To See the Meaning of Blessing.
Not for all who are simply Born Again, but for those Born-Again Ones Who Watch and Pray.

1 CORINTHIANS 15.45-49
so also it has been written: “The first man Adam became a living creature,” the last Adam [is] for a life-giving spirit, but that which is spiritual [is] not first, but that which [was] natural, afterward that which [is] spiritual. The first man [is] out of the earth—earthly; the second Man [is] the LORD out of Heaven; as [is] the earthly, such [are] also the earthly; and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] also the heavenly; and according as we bore the image of the earthly, we will also bear the image of the heavenly.

1 JOHN 2.15-17
Do not love the world, nor the things in the world; if anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him, because all that [is] in the world—the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of [one’s] life—is not of the Father, but of the world, and the world is passing away, and the desire of it, but he who is doing the will of God, he remains—throughout the age.

COLOSSIANS 3.3-4
for you died, and your life has been hid with the Christ in God; when the Christ—our life—may have appeared, then we will also appear with Him in glory.

LUKE 21.34-36
And take heed to yourselves lest your hearts may be weighed down with carousing, and drunkenness, and anxieties of life, and suddenly that day may come on you, for it will come as a snare on all those dwelling on the face of all the earth, watch, then, in every season, praying that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
