Today I simply want to challenge everyone to just think about how hungry you are for the Lord, and how big your desire is for Him. I have been thinking about it today and I am not hungry enough for Him, I mean as you walk with the Lord I believe your hunger grows, but when are you hungry enough? And I mean hungry for His Word and Hungry for His presence and HUNGRY to KNOW Him Personallly, to encounter Him every day! Because He wants to do that He wants to encounter us daily, Jesus is on His throne in heaven I believe with a cup in His hand and He has a cup for each of His children and it has our names on it... I believe He is saying to us, "How much of me do you want I will pour it out on you if you ask"
I determine How much I get of God... Wow It is crazy how that is, but I am praying and I want to encourage you guys too to daily ask the Lord to increase your hunger for Him.
We are ALL in desperate need of Jesus. He wants us to be hungry for Him.
Jesus, please make me more hungry for You, increase my hunger for You! I love You God and I ask that You would fill us up, but not let us be satisfied. Lord, please increase our hunger for You. Pour out Your Spirit God, pour it out on Your people! Pour it out on America! We are in desperate need for You now more than ever!! Thank You Lord for your faithfulness!!
Isaiah 55---Invitation to the Thirsty
1-5 "Hey there! All who are thirsty, come to the water!Are you penniless? Come anyway—buy and eat!Come, buy your drinks, buy wine and milk. Buy without money—everything's free!Why do you spend your money on junk food, your hard-earned cash on cotton candy?Listen to me, listen well: Eat only the best, fill yourself with only the finest.Pay attention, come close now, listen carefully to my life-giving, life-nourishing words.I'm making a lasting covenant commitment with you, the same that I made with David: sure, solid, enduring love.I set him up as a witness to the nations, made him a prince and leader of the nations,And now I'm doing it to you: You'll summon nations you've never heard of,and nations who've never heard of you will come running to youBecause of me, your God, because The Holy of Israel has honored you."
6-7Seek God while he's here to be found, pray to him while he's close at hand.Let the wicked abandon their way of life and the evil their way of thinking.Let them come back to God, who is merciful, come back to our God, who is lavish with forgiveness.
8-11"I don't think the way you think. The way you work isn't the way I work." God's Decree."For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think.Just as rain and snow descend from the skies and don't go back until they've watered the earth,Doing their work of making things grow and blossom, producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry,So will the words that come out of my mouth not come back empty-handed.They'll do the work I sent them to do, they'll complete the assignment I gave them.
12-13"So you'll go out in joy, you'll be led into a whole and complete life.The mountains and hills will lead the parade, bursting with song.All the trees of the forest will join the procession, exuberant with applause.No more thistles, but giant sequoias, no more thornbushes, but stately pines—Monuments to me, to God, living and lasting evidence of God."
