“In the context of Ephesians 5:18, if you are a drunkard, don’t expect the Spirit to fill you. You have filled yourself with drink, abusing a good creation of God, and in doing so you have said that you don’t want the Spirit to fill you. Conversely, I would think, those who fill their hearts with Scripture and prayer open themselves to a greater fullness of the Spirit.”
