Seven Truths About Hunger

Loss of our natural appetite usually means there is something wrong. Spiritually, it can mean the same. God made us to hunger for His presence. Even good things can take away our hunger for God – even things like our busyness in our work for Him. There is always the temptation to fill our time with good things, and miss the best that God has for us. God wants us to feast on Him, to spend time in His presence, and for His presence to be the pinnacle of our lives. We should desire God above all else. (John 7:37-38)

Sixty-three stand-alone short chapters of help in living the Christian life. There are chapters here for everyone – people who are walking towards God, people walking with God, and those walking on with God. The short chapters are arranged approximately in this order, but there is much value in the early chapters for those looking for a deeper faith. This is not a book where you have to start at Chapter 1 and work your way through to the end. The Contents page lists the title of every chapter, so just dive in and read one that inter-ests you. Of course, you can start at Chapter 1 and read the whole book if you prefer, and our prayer is that every reader will be greatly blessed by what they read. The majority of these sixty-three chapters have been released individually as booklets, and every chapter as individual eBooks that are available in all formats from major eBook distributors. The eBook editions are free from most distributors. This whole volume is also available as a paperback from major book distributors.

Babies are cute when they are young and going through different stages of growth. But when they get older, you don’t expect them to act like babies! It is normal to grow and mature. Something is wrong if this normal development doesn’t happen. We need to be growing as Christians into maturity, and moving on to other things (Hebrews 6:3). Growth is our responsibility, and it always involves change. If we don’t change, we won’t grow. We need to be teachable. If we are satisfied with where we are, we won’t want to move on – and we will stagnate. We always need to learn. The Holy Spirit is always ready to teach us, and open up new ground to us.

The life of Jesus Christ was a life of Power and Passion. Our lives should be filled with power and passion and His authority. We have the power of Christ in us (Colossians 1:27). In John 2:15-17 we see that Jesus was passionate for God’s honour. He cleared the moneychangers from His Father’s house. All the rebellion in men’s hearts against God was aimed at Jesus on the cross. Our passion for God and His Kingdom should burn hot within us!

If we ask God for something with the wrong motive, we will not receive it from Him. God knows our hearts and the intentions of our hearts (Hebrews 4:13). We need to be honest with ourselves about our motives in prayer. It is always good to check ourselves, and ask ourselves why we are praying for something. Is it with the right heart and motive? Are there any selfish motives in there? It is possible to do all the right things with the wrong motive, and be unaware of it. This is why it is so important to check our motives on a regular basis – for God’s sake and for His Kingdom, for the sake of others, and for our own sake. The ripples go out, but when we do the right thing with the right motive, how different are the ripples that go out!

This work is motivated by the Lord to equip his people for last days. The trial of our faith will be unimaginable! The 7 Spirits of God are 7 unique characteristics, which are God's essence. The menorah is a symbolic representation of God. This true revelation has been a mystery since Genesis. That doesn't make me special but it does reflect on the desperate time we are in. All that heed this information will not regret it. God wants us to know that he is our inheritance and He wants us to be aware of what's been given to us as believers. Embracing this revelation will bring us into what Jesus calls a "John relationship" Which Christ said is what's needful. There was no space between them. John understood this teaching and appropriated God's wisdom and power which are two of God's attributes. It's time to enrich our lives and this will help us personally, our family and ministry. We're in a spiritual war and this book will prepare us for battle and bring greater clarity on the love Jesus has for us!
