What does it mean to be 'filled' in the context of faith?

Answered in 1 source

Being 'filled' in faith refers to being completely satisfied and complete in Christ, lacking nothing.

To be 'filled' in the context of faith signifies a total satisfaction and completeness found solely in Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:10 states that believers are complete in Him, which means that in Christ, all spiritual needs are met. This completeness is rooted in the understanding that Christ's sacrificial work has provided everything required for justification, righteousness, and acceptance before God. When believers grasp this truth, they experience profound peace and joy, as they no longer seek fulfillment in worldly pursuits or self-efforts but find their satisfaction in the finished work of Christ. This fullness also propels believers into a deeper relationship with God, where they can embrace their identity in Christ and walk in the good works prepared for them.
