Devotion Day 2

Living Waters

by Pastor Karen Runjo


When Jesus met the woman at the well, he starts by asking her for something. It was something ordinary, but important to her and something from her everyday life – a cup of water.

When we are spending this time in prayer and fasting, God will ask us to give up something ordinary but important to us, from our everyday life – a meal or meals, watching TV, looking at FaceBook, eating sweets or chocolate, drinking coffee… whatever it may be that God speaks to you about.

From the conversation that started with a cup of water, came the promise of something great – a spring of living water welling up to eternal life. From the ordinary, it opened the way for something much more valuable.

As we hand over our ‘cup of water’ to God, it will leave room for something greater – time with God, giving our undivided attention and an openness to His living waters flowing more freely within us.




Prayer thought:

Water flows, washes/cleanses, infiltrates. Pray for rivers of living water (the Holy Spirit) to flow up from within your very being during these 21 days that have been set aside for us to seek God more intentionally.

Read John 4:1-42
