READ: John 7:37 CHALLENGE: Thrive with Jesus A. HEAR THE INVITATION John 7:37 - On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 1. The Invitation Is to the Thirsty 2. The Invitation is Bold 3. The Invitation is for Salvation Come to me and drink! One of the verses they read every Feast of Tabernacles was Isaiah 12:3 – “With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation”. Matthew 11:28-29 - “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls..” B. SIMPLY BELIEVE IN JESUS V38 - Whoever believes.” 1. Believe in Jesus John 3:16 - For God so loved It’s whosoever believes! They have eternal life. 2. Believe in Scripture Psalm 78:15-16 - He split the rocks in the wilderness and gave them water as abundant as the seas;. C. PROMISE …. rivers of living water. ”39 By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. The waters are the Holy Spirit which is granted to believers through faith. After the resurrection, Jesus sent the Holy Spirit and this is a game-changer for Christians. Belief led to Holy Spirit indwelling. 1. Power Rivers will flow. 2. Life Rivers of living water. Galatians 5:22-23 - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 3. Internal Strength Isaiah 44:3 - For I will pour water on the thirsty land,and streams on the dry ground;I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,. And just like the dry land needed water, we need the Spirit in our lives. And the Holy Spirit is a river of water flowing from within. What an impact! This is a change from within. The best kind of changes come from within your heart. And the nice thing about within is that no one can touch it. Nothing changes it! If you hit a crisis and you panic, then you’re panicky from the inside out. If you hit a crisis and you’re calm, you’re calm. Inside out! The outside world does not mold internal life. Ezekiel 47:8-9 - He said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah, 9 Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live. Salt water will become fresh. There is a true change here because of the Holy Spirit.
