A favorite author of mine, Nancy Campbell, and Editoress of the Above Rubies Magazine said this in a recent email devotional - It was a helpful and inspiring reminder - something to meditate on.
"Jesus said He would baptize us with the Holy Spirit and with fire. The Greek word for baptize means "to drench, to plunge." When someone comes out of the waters of baptism, they drip with water. In the same way, we should be dripping with the anointing of the Holy Spirit--in our home and our daily lives.
Theadore Robinson comments on this Scripture: "As John had immersed men in physical water, the Christ would plunge them into the very Spirit of God--the Holy Spirit--the source of all inspiration and the energy behind all goodness. This would fill them, overwhelm them, control them, transform them."
