Streams of Living Water

Opening question: Share a time when you were very thirsty.

Let’s read John 7:37-39
37 It was the last and most important day of the Feast. Jesus stood up and spoke in a loud voice. He said, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. 38 Does anyone believe in Me? Then, just as Scripture says, streams of living water will flow from inside him.” 39 When He said this, He meant the Holy Spirit. Those who believed in Jesus would receive the Spirit later. Up to that time, the Spirit had not been given. This was because Jesus had not been glorified yet.

1. In your own words, try to retell what happened on the last day of the Feast.

3. Do you think spiritual thirst is real? Explain.
4. If anyone is spiritually thirsty, what should they do, according to Jesus?
5. What does it mean to ‘believe in’ Jesus?
6. What are ‘streams of living water’ and where do they come from?
7. Have you begun to drink this ‘living water’ yet? If so, what is it like?
