There are those that cries always to God to “quench their thirst” and fill them afresh. They misunderstand the words of Jesus in John 7:37, where He said, “In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.” it doesn’t mean that when you are “thirsty” for God, you go to Jesus.
Don’t be confused by what the Spirit penned through Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:4, saying, “And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” In the Old Testament, they drank water from the rock, and that rock was Christ.
Today, you don’t need to “go” to Jesus anymore to get that drink because you are in Him already, and He is in you! He said, “He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38). This water is the Holy Spirit.
when you received the Holy Spirit, you got the drink of the Spirit. He has quenched that your thirst! We don’t cry to God to fill us when we think we are thirsty; we get ourselves filled with the Spirit; and the Word shows us how: “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit. Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord”(Ephesians 5:18-19).
This is the way to stay perpetually filled and drenched in the Holy Ghost! It’s by ministering to yourself in the spirit by singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.
