If we made a list of things that need water, we would be on the list. All living things need water. God uniquely made our bodies. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. Our brains are seventy percent water, so when we give them water, we give them what they are made of and need. (Jesus teaching))
The prophet Daniel asked permission to drink water and eat veggies for ten days when told to eat and drink what was ungodly and unhealthy. And he looked better after the ten days than those who had eaten the king’s food.
We need water to stay fit for God’s kingdom service, and Jesus is the living water.
God’s wisdom benefits us every time. When we are fatigued, fuzzy, frazzled, and frustrated, we can grab our water bottle, head to the water cooler, and drink more water. We can even take the Daniel test by recording our water intake and increasing our daily amount if needed.
We often need water and are nearly dehydrated, yet we think we need food. Eating and overeating are not the answer. Water is what we need. Water is great for the brain, joints, skin, kidneys, digestive system, hair, nails, and every other body part. Our bodies will thank us by getting stronger and staying fit for God’s kingdom work.
What water does for our bodies, God does for our spirits with the water of His Word. He washes us clean and quenches our thirst for friendship, fellowship, significance, value, purpose, and vision.
What are some ways you can drink of God’s presence? Why not fellowship with Him by reading His Word daily? You can learn about His will and evaluate the outcome.
"Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life." John 4:13–14 (NIV)

Our Prayer-
Father, as water is essential to life, You've made our bodies fearfully and wonderfully made, so that every part of our bodies need water! The prophet Daniel asked permission to drink water and eat veggies for ten days when he had been told to eat ungodly and unhealthy foods.
He looked better after the ten days on water and veggies than the others did on the unhealthy foods. It's evident today too, that eating unhealthy foods are detremental to our health and cause us to not be fit for Your Kingdom's service, and to Jesus.
Your wisdom is beneficial for us, especially when we are fatigued, fuzzy in mind and frustrated, to grab our water bottles, or head for the water cooler to drink more water. Water is what we need!
It's proven to be great for the brain, joints, skin, kidneys, digestive system, hair, nails and every other body part. Water does for our bodies what God's Spirit does for our spirits with the water of Christ's Word! We are washed and cleansed, and our thirst is quenched with friendship, fellowship, significance, value, purpose and vision.
We pray in Christ's name for guidance in our referbishing our bodies with water for good physical health, and our spirits with the Living Water from the Word of Christ! Amen.
#8 Testimony- Gail
“After the sale of my mother’s house in VT, state taxes were taken out of the total paid to my brother and me. Time went by and my brother who lived in Ohio, realized that he and I had never been refunded the state tax, even though we lived out of state.
He called the VT tax department and wrote to them with no apparent help forthcoming. One day I decided that I also needed to make an effort to recoup this money. I prayed, ‘Please, Lord, help me because I am no good at this sort of venture.’
When I called the tax dept, I got a pleasant young man on the line. I explained the situation of the missing refund as best I could. He asked me where I lived in NY and I told him Canton.
He immediately perked right up and said, ‘Well, I’m a Clarkson graduate.’ From that point on, he was most helpful and told me what to do and gave me needed phone numbers.
It was such a blessing and I was able to pass this onto my brother. We are in the process of the resolution!”
