Job 23:12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Come

Bible Reading: Revelation 22

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

The Bible ends with a wonderful invitation to come to Jesus. He has the water of life. Jesus offered this water to a Samaritan woman at a well.

John 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

Are you thirsty? Then come to Jesus. He has the water of life. Once you drink of this water, you will never thirst again.

The invitation is offered to "whosoever will" and notice where the invitation comes from. The Spirit says, "Come." The Holy Spirit invites people to come to Jesus and drink the living water. The bride also says, "Come." This is the invitation from the church.

Here is the wonderful news! The invitation is offered to all and the church joins with the Holy Spirit in inviting people to come to Jesus. Are you a part of this inviting party? Please join in! Come. Then go and invite others!

In Christ,
