2011.6.5 Thirsty Life
John 4:5-18
The most basic of human needs is the desire to quench thirst.
We feel that the age is the age of thirst and spiritual famine.
It is said that divination and shamanism are prevalent because society is unstable right now.
So many people are thirsty. Where can this thirst be quenched?
1. All modern people have a thirst for thirst.
North Koreans still wish to eat this rice (white rice) to its fullest.
So, do South Koreans who eat white rice to their full satisfaction are not thirsty for rice?
It is said that Korea's alcohol consumption is approaching the top again in the world.
Why are you drinking like that? Because you feel thirsty for something.
However, it does not satisfy the underlying thirst.
In Korea, the suicide virus is spreading mainly among lovers.
Suicide is sweeping away like an epidemic even among the social leaders. It ranks first in the suicide mortality rate.
Jesus experienced thirst on the cross to quench our thirst.
Jesus crucified, I am thirsty!” cried.
It was the Lord's cry to quench our thirst.
2. Only the Lord Jesus is our living water.
The Lord has become the water of eternal life, freely given to those who believe in Him.
Anyone who does not drink the living water, Jesus Christ, will be thirsty again.
In John 6:35 it says, "...he who believes in me will never thirst."
All human beings have a deep inner thirst.
Everyone needs a Savior. You must meet Jesus, the healer.
You must taste the thrill of living water springing out of it.
The woman of Suga-seong in the text is a person who has enjoyed the grace of quenching the thirst of life.
It was an expression of thirst for this woman to go back and forth between this man and that man.
But after meeting the Lord at the well, she drank the living water that welled up from within.
So, I was shy to meet people, so I was a woman who came out to draw water at the time when others were taking a nap.
He went to all the people in the neighborhood to preach the name of Jesus, who quenched his thirst.
3. The filling of the Holy Spirit is the quenching of thirst.
John 7:37,38 “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
Whoever believes in me, as the Bible says, out of his belly will flow rivers of living water.”
God provided living water to the Israelites in the 40th year of the wilderness, and made living water come out of a rock.
The Bible says that that spiritual rock is Jesus Christ.
Just as the people of Israel drank living water from the rock.
The only living water is the Savior Jesus Christ, who is the rock of life for the thirsty modern people in the wilderness world.
Jesus Salvation/ Jesus Truth/ Jesus Life/ Jesus Savior/ The moment I discovered this fact
The living water of the Holy Spirit bursts out of our hearts.
Meditate on the Bible. You can drink bottled water in it.
Longing for the Holy Spirit and praying.
You will experience an overflowing river of living water.
He promised that he would give you living water that springs from the belly of the living water that never thirsts.
I bless you in the name of the Lord that you come to the Lord and taste spiritual dryness.
