Fish needs food Sinners die out of lack of water, saints die out of lack of word Telescope – look at it – nothing, look through it – you will see universe and other world Medicine - it will curse all disease; it must be taken to be effective (Prov.4:22; Ps.107:20) Bread – it will feed our hunger; taking bread inside brings effect; like manna (Matt.4:4) Seed – it will bring fruit; putting it in your heart (Matthew 13:3) Knife – it will cut barren branches; allow it to cut you (John 15:3) Mirror – it will reveal to you who really are; look at it (James 1:23) – you don’t need to ask how do I look Light – it will guide you through darkest hour; turn it on (1 Pet.1:19) – exposes, guides, illuminates It never changes, endures forever, created world, regenerated our heart, & healed bodies Noah’s ark had only one window – Church has only one window Fish needs water It’s not enough for a fish to be in a tank Whatever you’re made of, you’re depended upon Plants need ground, fish needs sea, woman needs man, and humanity needs God World says that what we need the most are rocks on the bottom of aquarium “college, image, money” Devil says that real fun, freedom and life is only outside of God “Adam & prodigal son” Plants you don’t need ground, fish you don’t need water, & man you don’t need God
