A Thirst for God
Psalm 63:1-8
A personal relationship
with God through Jesus Christ has the potential to be more intimately
satisfying than any earthly connection. King David recorded his experience in
Psalm 63. Our heavenly Father wants to have a loving bond with us just as He
did with David.
Making a firm
commitment to know Him is the first step, which takes priority above all other
matters. David described his passion to know God as an intense thirst. The
apostle Paul likened his dedication in pursuing the Lord to a race. When we
pledge ourselves to the lordship of Christ and seek after Him with our hearts
and minds, we will find our souls becoming satisfied.
When we resolve to
follow after the Lord, our next step is to spend time in His Word. The Bible is
God’s revelation of Himself and His plan for the world. Making time to read and
meditate on Scripture is essential for every believer. That’s how we learn who
God is, how He works, and what He desires for us and for the body of Christ. Dedicating time to knowing and experiencing
God is a critical step toward a satisfying walk with Him. Begin today by making
a pledge to pursue Him more diligently and taking time in your schedule for
regular study and prayer. Your heavenly Father is waiting to meet with you.
Let’s remember those on
our prayer list and others that you can think of who need a touch by our
Heavenly Father.
