A friend of mine has a guest farm and
on this farm there is a dam. This dam is seasonal, it is normally dry
but when it rains the dam quickly fills up. But after a few months it
dries up again. There are no fish in this dam but quite often guests
that visit the farm pull out their fishing rods and they start
fishing, very hopeful to catch a fish but they don't realize that
THIS DAM HAS NO FISH!
It is exactly the same with so many
people who go to church and go and sit in the pews and who listen to
a preacher in the pulpit. They go there for food for their souls but
they go away empty, they go away hungry because THERE IS NO FOOD!
Man will not live from bread alone but
from every word that proceeds from the MOUH OF GOD, not from the
mouth of a preacher, not from other people but from Jesus HIMSELF,
from His Holy Spirit living inside of you. His sheep LISTEN to His
VOICE and they FOLLOW Him. Jesus Christ Himself is the WAY and the
TRUTH and the LIFE, He is the BREAD OF LIFE. If we do not receive
from Him personally every day then we will go hungry, we will PERISH.
We need to hear from Jesus, not in a
“church,” not from a paid preacher, but from Jesus Christ
Himself. If Jesus does not live IN US and if we are not fed BY HIM
every day we will perish! Don't go to an empty dam with no fish.
Don't go looking for food where there is none. Go on your knees and
call out to Jesus, seek Him with all your heart until you find Him.
Then STAY WITH HIM and let Him feed you with THE BREAD OF LIFE every
day.
Are you feeding from what Jesus Christ
Himself, gives you every day?
May Jesus bless you.
