weakness, or pain caused by a prolonged lack of food; To have a strong desire or craving. MATTHEW 5: 6 ( NIV )
12“Blessed are those
who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled” Psalm 63: 1-3 “A Psalm of David when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water. So I have looked for You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise You.” Sometimes God allows us to go into the wilderness to cause us to hunger & thirst for Him! JOHN 7:37-38 “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” WHY HUNGRY FOR GOD? 1. WE ARE NOT ONLY PHYSICAL HUMAN WE ARE ALSO A LIVING SOUL. MATEO 10: 28 Huwag ninyong katakutan ang pumapatay ng katawan ngunit hindi nakapapatay ng kaluluwa. Sa halip, ang katakutan ninyo’y ang nakapapatay ng kaluluwa at katawan sa impiyerno. MATEO 4:4 Hindi lamang sa tinapay nabubuhay ang tao kundi sa bawat salita na namumutawi sa bibig ng Diyos. 2. HUNGER FOR GOD LEADS TO A CHANGE OF LIFE: JOHN 6 :35 “Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and ho believes in me will never be thirsty” 3. WE’RE TOO EASILY SATISFIED BY WORLDLY THINGS: MARCOS 8 :36 Ano nga ang mapapala ng isang tao, makamtan man niya ang buong daigdig kung ang katumbas naman nito’y ang kanyang buhay? YOU WILL NEVER DISCOVER THAT GOD IS ALL YOU NEED, UNTIL GOD IS ALL YOU HAVE.
