An Insatiable Appetite

It is good for workers to have an appetite; an empty stomach drives them on. – Proverbs 16:26

Transcript:

The Lord is on your side and does so many things for you, but you have to be a little more attentive to Him. Let us be open and ready to receive what He is doing for us. He will give us a fresh desire or hunger in His way.

In this season, we don’t need teachings but a new perspective and revelation of who we are and how God wants us to be.

The scriptures say it is a good thing for an empty stomach, it is a good thing for the hunger in the worker, it is a good thing to have a great appetite and it is a good thing to be driven by the hunger desire. At times, we must question ourselves, Are we lacking the drive in our lives? Do we require that empty stomach to be driven to work hard?

The scripture says the worker has an empty stomach which is a good thing. It could be his or one of his family members. The noise of the empty stomach, the groaning will drive them on, which leads him to work hard and not slack.

Let us have an appetite to serve God and drive in every way to pursue Him. Let us be hungry for purity in our lives. May we have a hunger for the anointing and the presence of God.

Let us have the hunger to commit to Him and give the best service to Him and increase our higher standard of giving and service.

When we carry the hunger of a groaning stomach to serve Him, we work diligently. Share on X

At times, when we serve in the church, we think it is just a volunteer job and our quality reduces. But, if we carried the hunger of a groaning stomach, how hard our work would be.

Let our appetite not be physical and help us achieve our calling, fulfil the purpose, and do what God wants us to do. Let this word revolutionise our service to Him.

He did this so that they would look for him, and perhaps find him as they felt around for him. Yet God is actually not far from any one of us.

Psalm 147:2–3 reveals God's heart as a Restorer rather than a Punisher. Although Israel went into exile because of its own rebellion, God did not abandon His people. Instead, He promised to restore Jerusalem, bring the exiles home, heal the brokenhearted, and bind up their wounds.

The message reminds us that while God may use friends, pastors, counselors, or loved ones to help us, true healing and restoration ultimately come from the Lord. His restoration reaches every part of our lives—our hearts, relationships, health, finances, emotions, and spiritual walk.

God knows every wound, including those hidden from others. Unlike people, who can only comfort from the outside, He sees the deepest parts of our hearts and heals completely. His healing is so complete that even the scars of past pain lose their power to define us.

The devotion encourages believers to fix their eyes on God instead of relying solely on human help. No matter how far someone has drifted, how many mistakes they have made, or how broken they feel, God is still calling them back. His desire is to restore, heal, and make all things beautiful in His perfect timing.
