Joshua 3:7
\nAnd Joshua said, \u201cHere is how you shall know that the living God is among you<\/strong> and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Perizzites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, and the Jebusites.<\/p>\n

Deuteronomy 5:25
\nFor who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of fire as we have<\/strong>, and has still lived? Go near and hear all that the Lord our God will say, and speak to us all that the Lord our God will speak to you, and we will hear and do it<\/p>\n

Psalms 42:2
\nMy soul thirsts for God<\/strong>,
\nfor the living God<\/p>\n

Psalms 63:1
\nO God, you are my God;\u00a0earnesty I seek you<\/strong>;
\nmy soul thirsts for you;<\/strong>
\nmy flesh faints for you,<\/strong>
\nas in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
\nSo I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
\nbeholding your power and glory.<\/strong>
\nBecause your steadfast love is better than life,
\nmy lips will praise you<\/p>\n

John 7:38
\n\u201cIf anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink<\/strong>. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, \u2018Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I want to tell you scripture that means something very deep to me. \u00a0“heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of fire”. \u00a08:00 a.m. Saturday, March 11, 1978 I was working as an apprentice plumber. \u00a0Another man, Lee, and I were scheduled to work in a house under construction. We arrived at the house a little before 8:00 and got set for what should take us about 4 hours of overtime to complete. \u00a0We were in the basement. \u00a0When Lee went to light his torch the house exploded in a ball of flames. \u00a0I remember getting up off the floor totally engulfed in flames. I was frantically trying to beat out these flames. \u00a0I was wearing a polyester winter coat. \u00a0The flames were melting this coat on to my skin when there was an audible voice that said “Daryl pull off your coat”. \u00a0And though I was burned the voice of God saved be from much more serious burns. \u00a0I must say at this time of my life I gave little or no thought of or about God. \u00a0God used this to get my attention. \u00a0He then placed people in my life who followed Him. \u00a0For over a year these people built relationships with me and continued to explain the gospel over and over again. \u00a0These people followed God’s calling in their life to make disciples. \u00a0On March 22, 1979 I came to the knowledge of God’s plan of salvation through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. \u00a0I knew without a doubt I was a sinner in need of forgiveness. \u00a0You may ask “forgiveness of what” – living for God and for His purpose – to honor and glorify Him. \u00a0It is impossible to do this on our own accord. \u00a0There is nothing we can do to make ourselves right in His eyes but to believe in the saving grace through the work Jesus did on the cross. \u00a0From this beginning our life will take a complete change. \u00a0Our hunger to do everything for ourselves and our benefit changes to a hunger and thirst to know God more and to seek to bring Him honor and glory. \u00a0Thirst for Him.<\/p>\n
