Psalm 63:1-2

“A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is” (Ps. 63:1).

David’s present physical environment was a perfect picture of how he felt inwardly.  Apart from the presence of God in exile — the Ark being left behind in Zion, David purposed with all his heart to not lose the vital reality of his relationship with God!! His soul longed for God! He longed to be in the presence of His God in the tent of His dwelling place. 

I don’t know about you, but as a pilgrim walking through this world, I feel so often that I’m treading through a wilderness land.  All around me, consumerism flaunts and struts its pomp!  The glittering lights, the frills, and the trinkets.  I feel like a man in exile — outside the city walls of Zion!!  The cares of this life and the business of the day which beckons us on every hand, if we’re not careful, can leave us spiritually parched (I speak for myself). This sermon is a call to return to the fountainhead of life.  Jesus said,  “If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink” (Jn. 7:37).
