“On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.””
John 7:37-38 NKJV
Come to house of God, drink with Jesus.
Key: is to be filled.
God love do supernatural thing
Is natural for God to bless, to fill, to heal...
Spiritual Hunger
God is more than happy to love us.
Jesus said: come to me. He is living water
“And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.”
John 20:30-31 NKJV
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.”
Matthew 5:6 NKJV
Nothing can beats or compare to the presence of God
Challenge yourself to be hunger for God.
Be Hunger, Be Filled;
No Hunger, Stay Empty.
“As the deer pants for the water brooks, So pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say to me, “Where is your God?” When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go with the multitude; I went with them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast.”
Psalms 42:1-4 NKJV
3 Simple points to stay Hungry for God
1. Prepare - Set our heart to seek God.
“And he did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the LORD.”
II Chronicles 12:14 NKJV
Preparation define your destination.
“For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the Law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach statutes and ordinances in Israel.”
Ezra 7:10 NKJV
When we so full (with the thing, serving...) how God gonna fill us?
2. Dwell - Wait on the Lord.
Is the struggle to do nothing.
We always don't like to wait.
See church is the home, learn to dwell first, before you serve.
“When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.””
Psalms 27:8 NKJV
Seek His face
Seek God face more than His hand.
“Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.”
Jeremiah 29:12-14 NKJV
3. Transform - Receive His Heart
From a person face, your can receive His heart.
We struggle as we focus on wrong things.
God always see potential and purpose of His People.
See God's face and know His heart.
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
Romans 8:14-17 NKJV
Know your identity and don't have a spirit of fear when you received His heart.
“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.”
John 15:13-15 NKJV
A friend of Jesus and can share His heart.
Before so something, to know His heart first.
