August 12, 2020 - THIRSTING FOR GOD

Day 226 - (Today’s Bible readings: Jeremiah 52:1-11; Psalm 42; Philippians 1:12-30)

THIRSTING FOR GOD 

As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.  (Psalm 42:1-2 ESV)  

What a wonderful gift God gave David! The repentant and forgiven sinner was given a deep desire to be as close to His Savior as possible. 

Do you have a deep desire to be as close as possible to God? 

● Read and meditate on His Word. 

● Worship Him faithfully each week. 

● Remember what God did for you on Mt. Calvary.

Lord, thank You for my salvation. Like David, may I thirst for Your presence in my life. Amen.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105 ), is the theme for this three-year journey through the entire Old Testament once (the Psalms - twice yearly), and the New Testament twice. There will be daily readings from the O.T., Psalms and the N.T. Special days on the church calendar will be highlighted with appropriate readings.
