About this resource
Let your thirst become a cry.
Thirst is not a weakness in the life of a believer. It is an invitation. Every holy longing in you was placed there by the One who longs to fill it. Thirsting for the Lord gathers 50 prophetic declarations from Prophetess Shamika Rich to break spiritual dryness and turn your hunger into pursuit.
The declarations are arranged in ten themes, each opening with a scripture to pray first. Use them:
- as a ten-day journey, one theme a day
- in personal devotion and journaling
- with your family, prayer team or ministry before worship
- printed as altar cards or devotional prompts
Scripture
Psalm 42:1–2 Isaiah 55:1 Psalm 63:1 John 7:37–38 Matthew 5:6
The Word on holy thirst.
“As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God.”
“Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters.”
“O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is.”
“If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me… out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”
“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.”
