When we are hungry we look to satisfy it, we imagine what food we love and are very active on looking for and finding it. Then we eat it, every mouthful is amazing and on completion of eating it we are satisfied.
Hunger for God, to encounter Him and to experience the revelation of His word is a heart cry for a close relationship with Him. We can be spiritually satisfied when we seek after God, His righteousness, His word and communication with Almighty God.
Are we spiritually hungry for God and His word? Does your heart, like mine, resound a loud ‘Yes’?
The good news is, the heart of God responds well to our hunger for Him, because He longs to share His heart with us and reveal His truth to us.
God is waiting for our hearts to be hungry for Him, thirst for Him and to seek Him and be active in seeking Him through His word, in prayer and in His Presence. God is ALWAYS ready to reply, respond and speak to our hearts in response to our ‘hunger’ for Him.
This verse in Matthew 5:6 comes with promise, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.”
Have we noticed this verse in Revelation 3:20
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.”
Jesus is here, he is at the door of our hearts already knocking and again He responds to our hunger for Him. We will be satisfied every time! He has a banquet ready for us to feast on WITH HIM each time.
Take time today to satisfy your hunger with the Lord today, He is waiting.
