Freedom from Guilt and Shame

I believe this Samaritan woman represents a generation of people who today are living with guilt and shame, who are discouraged and suffer from depression. I believe the Lord wants to bring them healing and forgiveness, to release those who are suffering from oppression. He is saying to his people: Ask of me and I shall give you living water. I want to bring healing and restoration for your souls

 

This world can never truly bring satisfaction, there is that continue thirst for more of what does not bring satisfaction, fulfillment or peace to ones soul.

 

But who ever 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.

 

But He needed to go through Samaria, through a city called Sychar

 

Jesus need to go to this Samaritan woman, she was not able to come to him. But he went to her, He knew that she had a deep longing in her heart to love and serve God.  But she was denied access to God because of her Nationality, and the Jewish religion would not receive her. How many of you know that Jesus will visit you in your deepest need, when you are at your worst. He will be there for you, just as He was there waiting for the women to come to the well. He came to save her, bring her the freedom that the Gospel bring. Bring her into the Truth of God’s salvation.

 

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. The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water? John 4:10,11

 

He told her if you drink of the water that I will give you, you will never thirst again but shall have eternal Life. She asked how can you give me to drink you have nothing to draw the water with and the well is deep.

 

Jesus Words they are Spirit and Life, the Words of Jesus are containers of the Spirit Life of God. If you receive my Words, these words will pour out living waters into your life and you will be changed forever. You will receive the Spirit Life of God.

 

Lord wants to touch your life, to change you, redeem you from a life of guilt, shame and despair.  Through the power of a changed life and your testimony, many will believe that Jesus is indeed the Christ, the saviour of the world.

 

The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men, 

“Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

Then they went out of the city and came to Him.

 

When the Samaritan woman left that well she was a changed woman and immediately went out and told everyone. Meet a man that told me everything about me, and still loves me, saved me changed my life. She told everyone could this be the Messiah, the Christ of God. She was influential in bringing that whole city to the Lord Jesus.
