Exposition
If any man thirst, let him come unto me,
and drink – Jesus is still calling today, Jesus is available
to anyone, male or female in any condition, rich or poor.
The thirst is not a physical one but a spiritual thirst. It is a thirst
for salvation, a thirst from freedom from the law of sin and death. For those
you have already accepted Him, the thirst can be a greater need to know Him
more, to get closer to Him and to live by Him.
Jesus is the fountain of water. He is the well for all who are thirsty,
those who want peace, righteousness and joy in the Holy Ghost.
He that believeth on me – The condition for drinking is to acknowledge that Jesus is the
Messiah that God sent to save the world from sin. It is to acknowledge that
Jesus is the Son of God. No more, no less.
as the scripture hath said, out of his
belly shall flow rivers of living water – The evidence of a
person who has come to Jesus will be obvious to all around him. His faith in Jesus
shall flow and touch his neighbours. Rivers indicate abundance of supply.
The water that flows out can be dead which means it is of no benefit.
Living water cleanses, it leads to growth and fruitfulness.
Do you want to be that person? Connect to Jesus today or stay connected
to Him and eat as much as you can. Borrowing the words from an advert many
years ago, “Coke is it”, I say “Jesus is
it”.
Prayer
Dear Jesus, I come to you this day, I am thirsty. I accept that you are
the Son of God and you died for my sins.
Fill me anew this day. Let your life flow through me, touching all
around me and those fall away too in Jesus name. Amen
