1. God Wants To Refresh You To Refresh Others.
To refresh is to
give new spirit or vig-
our to. Its synonyms
are: Revive, enliven,
invigorate, rejuve-
nate, energize, re-
store, re-charge and
revitalize.
Scientists have
discovered that over ¾ of our body contains water. Just as our physi-
cal bodies yearn for water the same applies to our spiritual nourish-
ment. It is also documented that one cannot survive without taking
water for more than 3 days.
2. There are several missions orga-
nized by NASA and other related organi-
zation seeking to establish whether
there is water in other parts of the Solar
System. It was reported that Scientists
have found tantalizing evidence of a liq-
uid water ocean swirling under the icy shell of Jupiter’s moon Europa.
This was announced this Monday on 26th September 2016 with the new
evidence of the plumes. According to the lead researcher William
Sparks, there would be signs of life without drilling miles of ice found on
the said Jupiter moon. The Water these scientists are looking for is to
sustain physical life. It does not guarantee eternal life!
Water is extremely important to life’s sustenance. Our Lord Jesus sealed
this undisputable truth about water with these words: "And whoever gives one
of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assured-
ly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward." Mat. 10:42. NKJV.
3. To be a blessing in the Kingdom of God, you just begin by doing the
basics. One needs to ask himself this question: “What have I been en-
dowed with? Is it Leadership? Counseling? Am I an Artisan? Mentor? Do I
have talent in Sports? Am I a King or Priest? In the Kingdom of God, we
have both kingly and Priestly anointing. But there are special occasions
where some leaders functioned in both offices. God put Moses in leader-
ship position to help deliver Children Israel from their bondage in Egypt.
He was a mediator between God and people. Samuel was a Judge and
Priest in Israel. God used him to anoint King David.
It is the Spirit of God that enables people
to serve effectively in their respective ca-
pacities. Jesus Christ exhibits both Kingly
and Priestly Ministry. We can do all things
through Christ who strengthens us. If you
are led by the Spirit of God you are most
qualified to accomplish much for God.
4. There are many out there who
do not have this understanding
you and I have gotten from above.
It is our responsibility to bring
them back to the fold by sharing
with them what God has wrought
in us. It is written: “And has made
us kings and priests to His God
and Father, to Him be glory and
dominion forever and ever.”
Amen. Rev. 1:6. NKJV. “And hast
made us unto our God kings and
priests: and we shall reign on the earth.” Re 5:10-(KJV).
The angel of the Lord found Hagar (Sarah’s handmaid) by a fountain of
water in the wilderness and ministered to her. She was terribly thirsty.
(Genesis 16:7).
The Prodigal son was received by his father
back home. Read Luke 15:11-32
5. Water is a very precious commodity.
The Samaritan woman encountered Jesus
at the well. (John 4:6-8.) She had come to
fetch water to meet her physical needs but
her spiritual needs were met by Jesus. Je-
sus answered and said to her, "If you knew
the gift of God, and who it is who says to
you, 'Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have giv-
en you living water." - (John 4:10)
God sees what you are facing now. Prophet Ezekiel saw God’s glory.
Ezekiel 10:12. What are all these eyes for? Perhaps you are asking your-
self: Does he really see me? The answer is YES! He is watching us. I be-
lieve He is waiting for us to come to Him and ask for His water of life. At the
well, Jesus told the Samaritan woman to ask for this water of life.
7. Every sports-person prefers water to anything else first after strenuous
exercises. I remember years back, after playing soccer we would gulp almost
two litres of cold clean water to quench our thirsty. And immediately after that,
we would feel so refreshed.
When you serve people, you need to go
back to God for replenishment of your spirit.
When Jesus healed the woman with the issue
of blood, virtue (Power, Moral excellence)
went out of Him. Luke 8:46. It is this virtue
that set this woman free. But Jesus had a
way of replenishing Himself as He often wait-
ed on God through vigils by night on the
mountains. It is written, “Jesus went unto the
mount of Olives”. John 8:1. Jesus did this
knowing that there was a waiting crowd in
need and to meet their needs, He needed to be in synch with God the Father.
8. Those who walk in Spirit knows
the WILL of God. Gal. 5:16-17. For
us to experience breakthrough in our
lives, we must ensure that God’s
WILL is accomplished through us as
His vessels. Once we do this, He
will sort other challenges we face. It
is written, "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry
about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Suffi-
cient for the day is its own trouble” .Mat. 6:33-34.
Our Almighty God wants to refresh you so that you could refresh
others using His ability (Holy Ghost) in you. Matthew 28:19-20.

9. Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, I
come to you acknowledging
that I am a sinner, I walk in
the flesh. Come into my
life and save me now!
Please forgive me all sins. I
believe that You died for
my justification. Write my
name in the Lamb’s Book
of Life. I now confess that Jesus Christ is now my
Lord and Saviour. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and
Power so that I may Walk in Spirit. I dedicate my life
to serve you all the days of my life. In Jesus’ holy
name I pray! Amen!
