She was a wine bibber, hooked on a daily dinner diet of a bottle of choice wine. Then she gave her life to Jesus, determined that no one was going to preach her out of wine dependency. One day, as she told us, and with the table set with the usual complement of wine, the glass tipped and a strange conviction came all over her. She found herself with a napkin mopping the rug, sobbing, and promising God she would never touch the bottle again ever. She simply lost the appetite which made her popular in high society.

??This is the word of the Lord ? saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.? ? Zechariah 4: 6 (KJV)

Arguments do not resolve issues of the Spirit.
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
