"Get Your Fill"

Blessings my friends in Christ! I wanted to share a beautiful message I received through my Joel and Victoria Osteen ministry newsletter.

Are you hungry? thirsty? spiritually starved? Come to Jesus and eat from the Bread of Life and you shall be satisfied. Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will inherit spiritual satiety for eternity. Get with God and don't just feed yourself, feast yourself through our generous and loving Lord! Amen!

Bread of Life Bible Reference: Read John 6:22-59 for the full passage : )

John 6:35 "Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst."

John 6:51 ""I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh."

"Get Your Fill" by Joel and Victoria Osteen

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled;" (Matthew 5:6, NIV).)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

In the natural, what do you do when you're hungry and just not sure what will satisfy you? You may try to think of what to eat, but maybe you're not sure what will hit the spot. Spiritual hunger works the same way. You may feel a restlessness or unsettledness, but you can't quite figure out what will satisfy it. You may try to fill that need with other things—food, addictions, people—but only God can fill that hunger.

Today's verse tells us what will fill that hunger in our soul—righteousness. When you hunger and thirst for righteousness, which is God's way of doing things, you will be spiritually satisfied. But just like you have to take time to eat in the natural, you have to take time to "eat" or partake of God's righteousness.

Take time every day and devote it to the Lord with prayer, worship and the study of His Word. Stay in fellowship with other believers by attending church regularly. As you focus your hunger on God's righteousness, you will be filled and live satisfied in Him all the days of your life.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise to fill my hunger. I open my heart to You and ask that You draw me by Your Spirit. Teach me to walk in Your ways of righteousness that I may honor and serve You all the days of my life. I bless Your name today. In Jesus' name, Amen.

so funny Johnny, I'm studying John right now, i laughed as soon as the box popped up for John 6. this always happens :-) Bread of Life baby!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

@followingbreadcrumbs John is one of my favorite books, how great of you to be studying it right now. I feel it depicts all of Jesus's miracles so beautifully. I always advise anyone new to reading the Bible and new to the Lord to read John first. It really gives a comforting feel and the peace of Jesus, you know? Happy studying dear!

Great video. Only God fills that void, we are all born with a hunger for God. However satan wants to fill that hunger/desire with wordly things so we may become distracted, depressed, addicted, miserable,lost, etc. God completely fills us, in every way! God bless!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

@Lovesenduringpromise Amen my sister, total AMEN to that!

[beautifulu7]

Bless you bless you bless you! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!

I really believe clinging to this idea is only going to persist the feelings that you aren't good enough to yourself. I've watched several of your videos, and I think it's not as much a question of a god's love for you, but the greater question of you loving yourself without feeling the need to be loved by others. My life changed when I left religion behind and realized I am better than this collective nonsense about forgetting you and focusing on some god. I'm glad you're healthier now though.

[savana906]

Amen.

God bless you.

[GRichardsonMusic]

Duuuuuuude. Praise God for your amazing transformation. He is so good! I was watching your earlier videos on your struggle with the eating disorder and thought "how incredibly sad", but then stumbled on this video. What a beautiful savior he is!
