Text John
7:37-39.
Memory
verse: Colossians 2:10 “ And ye
are complete in him, which is the head of al principality and power.”
Our Lord Jesus Christ is so awesome; not only does He provide peace,
joy, promotion, victory and rest, He also gives satisfaction. The Bible in John
7:37 says
“In the
last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried saying if any man
thirst, let him come unto me and drink”
Jesus Christ is the true thirst –quencher. He knows what you need
and has it in abundance. He is willing to quench that thirst of yours if only
you would take it to Him. Today, many
people realize that they need something in their life. They can feel
unexplainable hunger pangs within their souls and are griped with a strong
thirst for something inside of them. But because they do not really know what
can quench their thirst and satisfy their hunger, they use just about anything
to try to fill this void, No human ,
material or spiritual substitute can fill the vacuum that God has reserved for
Himself inside of you. When God created
you, He made a space specially for Himself inside you; no one but Him is to occupy
this space. Unfortunately, many people have allowed other things to enter into
that space. This amounts to putting a square peg in a round hole; it can never
fit!
That thirst to serve God was put inside you by God. He alone can
quench it. Becoming religious cannot satisfy that thirst. Al you have to do is
to repent of your sins, ask for God’s forgiveness and invite Jesus Christ to
live inside you, and He will completely fill that space like a round peg in a
round hole! If you understand John 1:9, you will realize that Jesus Christ has
a role to play in the life of every human being He created. Until He lights you
up, you will remain in darkness. No religion can light you up! This is why Colossians
2:10 says
“And ye are
complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.”
Finally, this scripture reveals that without Jesus Christ, no
human being is complete. It was the ned for completion that necessitated the
removal of a rib from Adam to form Eve. Every human being was created
incomplete, and it is only by receiving Jesus that they become complete and
whole. Living without Jesus is like trying to drive a car without the control
of a steering. Such a car would be out of control. It will eventually crash and
become a wreck! Why not allow the Controller of the universe to take over your “tiny”
life today.
