In the opening scripture the Lord Jesus was registering the necessity of spiritual hunger in your Christian walk. That's the secret of being filled with God. It helps you move to next levels in your walk with the Lord. What is the level of your spiritual desire? David said, "As the dear pants for the water so my soul longs after you" (Psalm 42:1). Don't settle for less while there is unmeasurable wealth of truth in your Father's storehouse. Your desire for God has to be characterized by intentionality and positive desperation. Proverbs 8:34 gives us an imagery of intentionality and positive desperation towards God, "Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors". The person watches daily at the doors and gates, signifying the commitment and intentionality. This is the way you should be in your spiritual desire. When you do this, God responds by getting you into special ecstasy of fellowship with Him where He grants you a sensational satisfaction no human words can adequately explain.

Psalm 107:9 declares, "For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things". God is faithful in His role to fill you and satisfy you. Those good things start with a deep fellowship with Him. And your heart opens up to more understanding of the word of God. Hosea 6:3 (TLB) says "Oh, that we might know the Lord! Let us press on to know him, and he will respond to us as surely as the coming of dawn or the rain of early spring.'' This response of God to your hunger is a special ministration of the Holy Spirit represented by rain in the scripture. Many have not known the sweetness of this fellowship with God. It is in that ecstasy and bliss of satisfaction that new hunger levels are also birthed. He wants us to continuously experience deeper fellowship with the Lord.
