FOUNTAIN OF WATER Thursday November 26, 2015
Text: John 4:10 – 15 Memory verse: v 14
The
woman was ignorant of the gift God had for her – the gift of life, represented
by living water and she did not know the giver, Jesus the Messiah. Jesus makes
an extraordinary offer to this woman with living water that would quench her
thirst forever. The offer Jesus made raised some questions in the mind of this
woman just as Nicodemus was confused when he came to Jesus in the previous
chapter (John 3:1 – 10).
The
water Jesus offers takes away thirst altogether. Jesus’ water continually
satisfies the desire for God’s presence because it becomes a perpetual spring
within believers, giving them eternal life. This gift that Jesus gives, the
perpetual spring, suggests the availability, accessibility, and abundance of
the divine life for believers. Do you have that fountain of eternal life in
you? It is available and accessible. Go for it if you don’t have it.
Food for Thought: John 7:38
Prayer: Lord, give me the living water so I will not thirst
again.
