Once, God led me to meditate on Psalm 42:1: "As the deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul after thee, O God!" God then spoke to my heart about the functions of water. In the water interferes with the life of the doe?
Is there a relationship between the doe and water.
Protects the water!
Where the deer feels threatened, she seeks the nearest river and dives, you know why? Because predators to pursue by scent, the smell it leaves in the air, so when she dives into the river, smell the air disappears, leaving no trace of where it can be.
Note well, that God is with us when we dive into it, He protects us. Psalm 91.1-7:
"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, in the shadow of the Almighty. I declare, He is my God, my refuge and my fortress, and trust. For he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt insurance: its truth is a shield and buckler. You will not fear terror by night nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor the plague that assole noon. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand, but thou shalt not be reached. "
Whenever you dive into God, He will take care of you, protect you.
Daily we receive deliverance, for He is always taking care of their children, the Lord dwells in him who keeps his word (John 14:23).
The purified water!
In addition to protection, for which reason the deer like water?
Water also cleanses! When the doe is dirty or need to clean it and dives like a river, so naturally there is any dirt that is carried by the river.
God cleanses us from a deeper and more intense. When we dive in God and surrender totally to Him, He forgives us and cleanses us from all sin. See what is written in 2
Chronicles 7:14: "And if my people which are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land. "
When we believe that there is no cure for a disease or that He cleanses us from all sin and even that there is no solution to our lives like we're saying that God is not Almighty. But that's a lie! The Word of God says that there is no name above the name of Jesus (Philippians 2:9-11).
Water quenches thirst!
When we dive in God, He quenches completely.
Why the deer pants for streams of water? We can not forget the simplest reason: She's thirsty!
When we are thirsty, look for something to quench our thirst. In John 4:14 says: "But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst because the water I give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life."
There is a phrase that says: "There is a space in our lives, which is the size of God." A person can have everything in life, money, property, wealth, but if not God, will always have a feeling that something is missing, and then begin to seek to fill this space with different things or the things of the world, and this endless search can lead to a limitless void.
Pray for more of God in your life!
God is our Father, and He always cares for his children, cares, about the protection, care and provision. And all this is within your reach today, right now, for God is omnipresent (is everywhere at the same time). Right now, as you read this, he is on your side, waiting for you to talk with him
Just pray to him, and he will be listening to him, given his way to Him and let Him take care of everything, just rest.
May the Lord bless you and your whole family, and fill you with His wonderful presence, giving you comfort and peace!
The peace of the Lord Jesus!
