Come to the waters and drink!
Paul said it this way …. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace….1
The first step to experiencing the best of your life is your coming to the water life.
We see scattered in the scriptures God’s appeal and invite to his humanity to come!
This is both to the saved and the unsaved.
To the unsaved, to experience being born of the water and the Spirit.2
To the saved, to come and experience continuously the regular nourishment that delivers the best of this new life in Christ Jesus.3
The Spirit and the Bride says Come!4
Come and drink from this river of life that will keep you ever fresh.
Isaiah put it in an even better way. He said, Ho everyone that thirsts, should come! to the waters and drink. Come and have some drink – without money and without price. 5
He said it was a drink of water and honey and milk.
So, all that is required is for you to COME TO JESUS.
Have you ever figured out that all that Satan goes about to do is to put a separation between you and your Father.
- He makes you feel that you have so many sins that God won’t forgive you – but God says if you will come to Him, though your sins be as dark as scarlet, that they will be whiter than snow. 6
- He makes you doubt that God really loves you – yes God do love you! That’s why He gave His ONLY begotten son to die in your place. 7
- He makes you feel that you can handle your life without God, but No, you need God every day, because there is a way that seems right in the eyes of a man, but the end of it is death. So you need both the guidance and protection of God every day. 8
Will you today, willingly come to the Savior, the Helper of men.
Drop all your cares at His feet. Come! He said, and learn of me, because my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.9
How do you come?
By first accepting His invitation to the offer at the cross and then to a thriving relationship with Him channeled through His Holy Spirit whom He gives at salvation to be with you and in you.10
Beloved, decide today, to come for a drink from the river of life. It’s free, but it’s not cheap.
Just like the air you breathe is free, but not cheap.
Jesus wants you to come again and again to Him, so you can find rest for your soul.11 Come and enjoy this ceaseless, comforting life of peace and joy in Christ amid the chaos the world presents.
He said, in me you have peace, but in the world, you have trouble.12
His arms are wide open, do no delay anymore, come to JESUS today! 13
First come to the cross and be sure of your eternal life, come and register your name in the book of life by accepting His undying love offer of Salvation. Jesus cares for you.
LORD JESUS, I believe that you are the son of God. Thank you for dying in my place and rising again from death for my salvation and justification. Today, I confess you as the Lord of my life. I ask that your cleansing blood wash away my sins and make me clean before the Father.
Thank you for the gift of the Holy Spirit, who enables me live victoriously everyday and to bring me spotless into your kingdom and eternal rest.
Thank you for the gift of my salvation.
In Jesus Name.Amen.
