John 7:37-39
Living Water
Summary:
Do you know what is like to be true thirsty - even dehydrated? It happened to me once - I got sick (a lot!) and ended up in the hospital. It wasn’t fun! In John 7 Jesus is at a great Jewish feast (the Feast of Booths), and says “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink…” What did he mean? We are all spiritually thirsty people, and Jesus himself promises us Living Water so our spiritual thirst can be satisfied. But what does that mean? Let’s listen in and see:
1. A universal thirst
2. A river of Living Water
Verse: John 7:37 On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.
Discussion questions:
1. Why does Jesus say “if anyone is thirsty?” What are the things in this world that you hunger and thirst for other than God?
2. What does Jesus mean when he promises a river of living water coming out of our hearts?
2. How does Jesus fulfill the spiritual hunger and thirst in all of us? (Read also John 4:7-14, 6:35). How can you drink deeply from this fountain in 2018?
