I NEED YOU MORE
11th Nov 2026
“I need You more, more than yesterday
I need You more, more than words can say
I need You more than ever before
I need You, Lord, I need You, Lord
More than the air I breathe
More than the song I sing
More than the next heartbeat
More than anything, I need You more”
Jesus promises to be the Living Water that will satisfy you, and the Bread that will sustain you, give you life, assuage hunger and cause you to live with a supernatural dimension.
Years ago, I had a vision whilst ministering in a church in Sweden. As I looked over the people, I saw skeletal figures that looked like Belsen victims, totally emaciated. I was shocked and asked Father God what I was seeing. He said, “The state of my people is starving and weak.” This was shocking, as these people would be considered the keen ones, eager to be at the Bible Week. But, seen through God’s eyes, they were starving and undernourished.
Later, as I prayed with many, I discovered they were not spending personal time with Jesus and were not living with the spiritual resources that the Holy Spirit gives. As believers indwelt by Jesus, we need the Living Water and to be constantly filled with the Holy Spirit, so we have the resources to give to whatever situation is presented to us; we need Jesus to feed us with Himself, His Word, and His personal encouragement and direction.
I have been singing the words of the song, “I need You more…” from the depths of my being, nothing else will satisfy. So I cry out to be filled with God’s Spirit and to draw life from Jesus.
Read John 4 about the “springs of living water,” within, and John 7 where the “streams of living water” are to flow out.
“Fill my cup, Lord, I lift it up, Lord
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul
Bread of Heaven, feed me till I want no more
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole”
