Advent Devotional: Wednesday, December 19

And the Spirit and the bride say, "Come." And let him that heareth say, "Come." And let him that is thirsty come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. (Revelation 22:17)

It is not enough to simply teach people about Jesus - the Church as His bride must together with the Spirit invite people to drink of Him and follow Him. Christians are not to call people to a course of academic study, but to a relationship with a living God who promises to satisfy the thirst of their spirits.

Lord, make us sensitive to your Spirit's Voice, so that we may know when we should invite people to commit their lives to You.
