SPIRITUALLY DEHYDRATED?

SPIRITUAL DEHYDRATION?


We all get PHYSICALLY
Dehydrated at times
And we need WATER


Hopefully nothing more serious
But we CAN get
SPIRITUALLY DEHYDRATED too=ignoring GOD


Avoiding God=NOT making time
For God in our lives


“With joy-you will
DRAW WATER
At the FOUNTAIN of salvation........” Isaiah 12:3


Dear Lord=HELP US not to
BECOME spiritually dehydrated=help us
Not to stray from GOD


It is EASY to lose our temper=
To FAIL to pray=
To take our BLESSINGS
For granted


To fail to notice
Or to HELP
Those in need


Spiritually dehydrated
LOOKING for
The WATER of God
Looking for
The WATER OF LIFE


“IF your enemy is hungry
Give him FOOD to eat


If he is thirsty
Give him WATER to drink” Proverbs 25:21


“Jesus answered her=
'If you knew
The gift of God


And WHO it is
That asks you
For a drink


You would NEVER have asked him
And he would never have
GIVEN YOU LIVING WATER” John 4:10


“LET anyone
Who is thirsty
COME to me
And drink


Whoever BELIEVES in me
As SCRIPTURE has said


RIVERS of LIVING WATER
Will FLOW from within them” John 7:38


SPIRITUALLY dehydrated?=not anymore
Not if we find
THE LIVING WATER


The Scriptures of God
The WORDS of Jesus
GIVE US LIFE


“After he was
RAISED from the dead


His disciples RECALLED
What he had said


Then they believed
The scripture


And the words
That Jesus had SPOKEN” John 2:22


“All Scripture is
GOD-BREATHED=and is USEFUL
For teaching=


Rebuking=correcting=and training
In RIGHTEOUSNESS” 2 Timothy 3:16


Dear Lord=help us to NOT
DRIFT away from you=help us
To not get lost on
THE HIGHWAY of life


Help us to FIND the
SCRIPTURES=which are
LIFE-GIVING WATER to our souls


And keep us SPIRITUALLY HYDRATED
In the NAME of Jesus our LORD=and his Father=THE GOD OF LIFE
