I would like to talk to you today about the
thirsty being satisfied. Jesus said, “Blessed
are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousness, for they shall be filled.” Thirst
is an instinct to a newborn babe. The Psalmist
David spoke of spiritual thirst being an
instinct when he prayed, “My soul thirst for
the living God.”
We all thirst for something but the soul of
man can never be wholly satisfied without
Christ. Wells of material satisfaction run dry.
The man lost in the dry and arid desert will
imagine that at the peak of his thirst he sees a
mirage. He imagines the cool rushing spring
among green palms, but then as he bends to
drink, it all vanishes, leaving him with only
dry sand. Things in life will always leave us
disappointed like that.
Jesus said, “Blessed are they which do thirst
and hunger after righteousness; For they shall
be filled.” I have never known of a true
believer who was disappointed with what
Christ offered. Listen to the invitation. “Come
and drink. Everyone that thirsts come to the
water. If any man be thirsty, let him come to
God and drink.” Are you thirsty today for the
things that satisfy? All that is required is that
you come to the right source. Christ does not
promise a trickle, but rivers of living waters.
Father, fill me to overflowing with living
waters that satisfy my soul today.
Amen
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. John 4:13-14 KJV
