Psalm 42:1–2
As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
When shall I come and appear before God?
Colossians 1:16–17
For by Him all things were created that
are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or
dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and
for Him. And He is before all things,
and in Him all things consist.
I AM
BEFORE ALL THINGS, and in Me all things hold together. I have always been
and will always be. All things were created by Me: things in heaven and on
earth, visible and invisible. I am Lord over creation, over the church,
over everything! Worship Me as your vibrant Lord, the living God. I want
My loved ones to thirst for Me—as the deer pants for streams of water.
Do not be
satisfied with only thinking about Me or knowing Me intellectually. Thirst for
experiential knowledge of Me, grounded in sound biblical truth. Seek to
know My Love that far surpasses mere knowledge. You will need the help of My
Spirit to accomplish this.
You
must be strengthened with mighty Power by the Holy Spirit, who indwells
your innermost being and personality. Invite Him to empower and guide you
in this amorous adventure. But remember that I am the goal of your
searching—make Me central in your quest. You will seek Me and find Me when
you search for Me with all your heart!
Scripture
Ephesians 3:16–19
that He would grant you, according to
the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in
the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you,
being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the
saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of
Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of
God.
Jeremiah 29:13
And you will seek Me and find Me, when
you search for Me with all your heart.
