    Thirsty Hearts: Finding Fulfillment At The Well

    Contributed by Christian Jones on Jun 4, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,322 views

    Today, I invite you to journey with me to the ancient wells of Scripture, where we will explore the theme of thirsty hearts and the fulfillment we can find at the well. Just as physical thirst drives us to seek water, our souls also long for something to quench their thirst.

    Sermon Points: The Thirst of the Soul Scripture Reference: Psalm 42:1-2 (KJV) "As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?" Explanation: Our souls possess an ...read more

    Desires. Psalm 42.1-3MSG A widespread cry is growing in the hearts of believers for a real, tangible encounter with God. They want, like Moses, to see Him face to face.

    The Spirit As Streams Of Living Water Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 27, 2025
     | 836 views

    Another amazing role of the Holy Spirit is to be a stream of living water that flows from within those who put their faith in Christ. We must be thirsty and drink before we will experience the refreshment.

    A. The story is told about a man who got himself lost in the desert and began to search for water to quench his thirst. 1. After countless hours searching, he came upon a well with a big opening at the top. a. He peered down into the well, but couldn't see a thing down there. b. He looked ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 938 views

    John 7:37-39 is a powerful call to action, a divine invitation for all who are thirsty. It is not a physical thirst that Jesus speaks of, but a deep spiritual longing—a need only He can satisfy.

    Go! And Drink from the Living Water - John 7:37-39 Introduction: In John 7:37-39, Jesus makes a bold declaration: "On the last day, the climax of the festival, Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, 'Anyone who is thirsty may come to me!

    Time To Engage: "Following Hard After God”

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Feb 9, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 536 views

    The impulse to follow God originates with God, but it’s our responsibility to follow. We are told throughout the Bible that we’re to seek the Lord. As we purpose to follow hard after God, He upholds and strengthens us as seen in the Psalmist description of a deer in search for water.

In fact, God even said it isn’t. In fact,  He said it was downright easy, which is something ...read more

    God desires that His children remain hungry for His presence. The more we seek Him, the more He fills us with His Spirit. A renewed hunger for God will restore intimacy, fuel revival, and transform lives.

    What Jesus Really Means

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 15, 2024
     | 583 views

    Jesus made strong statements about His "body and blood" that could be misinterpreted as "cannibalism." However, Jesus meant something so much deeper as the Atoning sacrifice for sin.

    JESUS IS CAUSING QUITE A STIR AMONGST THE PEOPLE. THERE IS A RISING DISPUTE AMONGST THE JEWISH LEADERS INSINUATING A POSSIBILITY OF CANNIBALISM. MANY FOLLOWERS ARE TAKING THE WORDS OF JESUS LITERALLY THAT HE IS SPEAKING OF EATING REAL HUMAN FLESH AND BLOOD. IS THIS FOR REAL? JESUS DOESN’T SEEM TO ...read more

    “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness." This beatitude calls for an intense desire for righteousness. Are we actively and passionately seeking to be more and more like Jesus?

    Intro Our text today is Matthew 5:6: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.”i What do you long for in life? People are hunger machines.

    The question is the one St. Paul asked. Did my actions today proclaim the presence of Christ, and His desire that all men be saved? Or did it not?

    Saturday of the 30th Week in Course 2022 “To me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” St. Paul had a blinding revelation on the road to Damascus, an encounter with the risen Lord Jesus that turned his life completely topsy-turvy and started him on a perilous road that would take him all over ...read more

    His Song Is Within Me Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 11, 2020

    How do we keep from drowning in our sea of troubles? How do we keep our heads above raging waters? How do we keep going in the midst of the storms of life? We listen to our soul.

    I want to start by pointing out that Psalms 42 and 43 are believed to be one psalm. It seems pretty obvious when you look at verses 5 and 11 of Psalm 42 and verse 5 of Psalm 43. All three verses ask the exact same question: Why are you cast down, O my soul, And why are you disquieted within ...read more
