  2. What are you hungry for?

  3. Israel in the desert • Days out of Egypt, they started to question God’s provision • Their appetite was for the comfort of what always was, not what could be • Their appetite was for their will to be done • The manna, the pigeons, and the complaining was just the physical evidence of the spiritual condition.

  4. Saul’s appetite • Interesting twist, the tribe of Benjamin • Saul was appointed by God, and would have been used effectively • Saul’s appetite was for people’s acceptance • The decision to hold the sacrifice was people motivated (1 Sam 13) • His decision to spare the Amalekite’s livestock was to please the people (1 Sam 15)

  5. David’s Appetite • He had an appetite to do God’s will • He also had an appetite for women  • 2 Sam 3, just for starters • The Bathsheba incident (2 Sam 11)

  6. The prodigal son • Luke 15:11-17 • His initial appetite was for “free living” • All the money, women, booze, whatever the pursuits • The money ran out before the hunger ran out

  7. Jesus’ suggested appetite • Satan’s temptations – Luke 4 • Instruction to the Saints – Matt 5:6 • He is the one who satisfies hunger – John 6:30 – 50.

  8. Principles of Hunger • Even after the largest dinner, you will always be hungry later • You will constantly have to make decisions about what appetites you should feed, and which ones you should starve • The Bible is filled with examples of healthy appetites • Any appetites you should starve?
