I Thirst

Was Jesus Thirsty?

Exodus story - Exodus 7-8

Rock struck for water

Jesus - I am that rock, I quench your thirst

Matthew 5:6 ESV

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

What do you thirst for?

Samaritan - enemy of Jews

Woman had baggage

We all are thirsty

How do you quench your thirst?

Don’t get it - look in the wrong places

Everything else makes us thirsty

Jesus quenches

vs 16-26 - dealing with the sin - caused the thirst

From needy to needed

vs 14 - not just quenched - become an artisan well

vs 39 - flowed out to the whole town

we will do more

John 14:12 ESV

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.

Need, Seed, & Feed

need - Jesus meets us out of love

we see it because of love

seed - Jesus is our seed hope that will grow

we cast our seeds -

feed - move from needy to needed

faith move us to action

James 2:18 ESV

But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

Thirst no more

dying of thirst

drowning

pouring out
