When you feel thirsty, normally you get a glass of water and quench that thirst.
You probably remember the last time you were thirsty and had no water. All you wanted was a bottle of water to quench your thirst at that moment.
Just as your body wants water, many people are thirsty… not physically, but spiritually.
-You go to parties… but when the party is over, the feelings of sadness return and invade your soul.
-You thought that by getting married, your soul would finally be satisfied… But after the honeymoon, the situation got worse.
-You go to the gym every day, eat healthily and worry constantly about looking good in front of others… but nothing can make you feel happy inside.
-You look in the mirror and aren’t satisfied with what you see, so you get plastic surgery and fix up here and there. But at the end of the day, you’re still thirsty!
If you feel this way, and your soul is not satisfied, it is because you are drinking the “wrong water”. Take a look at what the bible says:
“Jesus answered and said to her: Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks the water I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.” John 4:13-14
The Holy Spirit is the water that you need if your soul is thirsty. Don’t put it off for tomorrow. Seek and ask Him in prayer to receive the Living Water!
Drink of His Water and your soul will be satisfied forever.
May the God of the Bible bless you,
Bishop Bira Joshua
