ISAIAH 55:1-6
“”Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price. Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And let your soul delight itself in abundance. Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live; And I will make an everlasting covenant with you— The sure mercies of David. Indeed I have given him as a witness to the people, A leader and commander for the people. Surely you shall call a nation you do not know, And nations who do not know you shall run to you, Because of the LORD your God, And the Holy One of Israel; For He has glorified you.” Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.
”Isaiah 55:1-6 NKJV

Our physical food cost money and last only a short time, yet in today’s world, most are lost without there internet, TV, and media.
These feed us with spiritual food, much of it lies, corruption, sexual immorality, and poison’s that destroy our very soul, which by the way, are not cheap.
I am not saying, nobody should have the internet or nice things, but while complaining about lack of funds, many find money for media, mobile phones, cigarettes, illegal drugs and alcohol which are unnecessary and damaging before purchasing food.
But God offers good healthy nourishment that feeds our soul, and brings wisdom and discipline in the way we live.
Our bibles are full of it and it’s free. It is good pure water that refreshes our soul.
Jesus said, “but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.””
John 4:14 NKJV
Therefore my brethren, why, when you have not money, spend on what is not bread?
Come to Jesus’ fountain and drink. Take in wine and milk that comes without price, yet it will satisfy your soul and lead you to eternal paradise.
Life can be a struggle, but I tell you, ““Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8 NKJV
Commit your lives to Jesus Christ, and He shall commit to you, a covenant that He shall never break.
Within that covenant He promises both provision, protection, and a wonderful eternal future.
But a covenant is a two way agreement, and we humans must keep our side of the agreement. It is like marriage, we believers are His bride, but the marriage ceremony hasn’t taken place yet. Therefore, the best is yet to come.
But to commit sin is coming into agreement or even relationship with the devil and is nothing less than prostitution. Like one’s wife must submit to her husband as is written, we believers must submit to the Lord.
Jesus Christ is the Lamb that was slain; He took responsibility for His bride and died to set us free from the wages of sin. Not free to continue in it, but free from the powers of sin and death, and free to live for Christ.
He paid a high price to give us freedom to live right and serve our God by the leading and help of the Holy Spirit (JOHN 14:15-18).
Anything outside of the covenant is sin and will if not addressed, separate one from God.
We can trust in His promises; for He is God. He will provide all our needs through every situation; even in drought and famine for He is faithful to provide.
In these dark days of corruption, lies, and proper gander, many believe that famine is soon coming upon the world; indeed it is already here.
What is plain to see is that Inflation is out of control and the world monetary systems are collapsing. Our health services are over stretched and pestilence has been and is being used to drive fear through the nations. Unemployment is rising and the future certainly looks bleak with the fret of wars and unrest.
But I encourage you, God is in control and is faithful and true.
“”Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 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. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”
Matthew 6:31-34 NKJV
Like Peter, while our focus is set on Christ, we shall walk upon the coming stormy seas, and even if we are overwhelmed by the noise, Jesus is always there within arms reach to take our hands and lead us back to safety; He is faithful and able calm the storm and give us peace. (MATHEW 14:22-33).
My beloved and all peoples, “Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.”
Truly I tell you, tomorrow may be too late.
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
