Spiritual Dehydration


He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water. John 7:38
To be dehydrated means to be seriously depleted of water and this can even be life threatening in severe cases. The body was not designed to go without water, H2O, to sustain it and keep it healthy.

Just as the human body can become physically dehydrated, it too can also be spiritually dehydrated. By this I mean when you only ‘feed’ and ‘water’ it for a brief  60 minutes on Sunday you are in danger of drying up and dropping over spiritually. You need to be ‘filled’ daily with the word of God, not just get spoon fed on Sunday. Many well meaning people who love Jesus probably do let other things get in the way of spending time alone in prayer and reading scripture but if you fail to do this your ‘spirit man’ will not be sustained. Similar to a thirsty individual in a desert, you need to find your oasis and that oasis happens to be Jesus Christ.

Satan is a master of keeping you away from ‘spiritual watering holes’ and you need to be aware of this. Are you spiritually thirsty? Don’t get so parched you don’t even care anymore. Make a plan and get to that ‘watering hole’ daily and get wet.

PRAYER: Now is the day of salvation. So many have come to faith but then let their spirits dry up. Bring all those back to the spiritual water only you provide Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
