THIRSTING FOR GOD

1/19/16 FROM PASTOR DUNN

Psalm 63:1-2– O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.  One commentary said on this “those who profess to know God need to examine themselves by asking the following: Do I really possess a strong desire for God and His presence in my life? Or do I go through life largely consumed with secular pursuits and worldly entertainment, while prayer and fasting, fervent love for Jesus, study of God’s Word, and a deep desire for God and His kingdom have little place or vitality in my affections and time?” That is a good Word! We need to desire God. We need Him in our individual walk as well as in the sanctuary(church), to see His power and glory! Matthew 5:6– Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Matthew 6:33– But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
