“For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
    and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
    and my blessing on your descendants.
They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
    like poplar trees by flowing streams” (Isaiah 44:3-4).

Morning by Morning, August 12, 2026 — Thirsty and Dry for What Only God Can Satisfy

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Take me by the hand and lead me by Your Spirit, as I arise and go with You on the journey of my day. …

“For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
    and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
    and my blessing on your descendants.
They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
    like poplar trees by flowing streams” (Isaiah 44:3-4).

We’re thirsty and dry for what only You can satisfy!

Pour out Your Living Water, Lord. Pour our Your Holy Spirit, Father.

We need a move of Your power and love, a move of Your mercy and grace.

Where we’ve grown weary and tired, where our hope has been deferred, where we’ve been tempted to settle for something far less than Your promises and purposes for our lives, awaken us and revive us. “Revive us again!” (Psalm 85:6)

As I’m stirred to pray, I hear back in my heart Your prophetic invitation that’s never changed:

“Ho! Everyone who thirsts,
Come to the waters!” (Isaiah 55:1)

“For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness,
And streams in the desert” (Isaiah 35:6).

In surrender, we come to the waters. In desperate faith, we come to waters. In fervent, awakening prayer for all You are to us, for all You have for us, and all You desire to do through us, we come to the waters!

And we believe by faith, Your waters are coming to us. Your flowing streams of living water are coming to us—into every desert and wilderness place in our hearts and in our land. Just as You said:

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled!” (Matthew 5:6)

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
