Spiritual dryness can feel like wandering through a wilderness—where prayers seem unheard, clarity feels distant, and God feels far away. In those seasons, it’s easy to assume something is wrong with you. But tonight’s Scripture reminds us of a surprising truth: blessing isn’t found in being full, but in being hungry. Jesus says those who hunger and thirst will be satisfied. That means your longing for God is not a weakness—it’s evidence that He is drawing you closer. Even when you feel spiritually drained, your desire for Him matters. This season is not the end of your story. God often meets His people most intimately in the wilderness, slowly filling empty places with His presence, His Word, and His steady love.

Main Takeaways

• Discover why spiritual hunger is not failure, but a sign of blessing and dependence on God.

• Learn how wilderness seasons can become places where God speaks, shapes, and renews you.

• Be encouraged that God is not disappointed by your unanswered questions or unmet longings.

• Remember the promise that those who seek Him will be filled—gradually, faithfully, and deeply.

• Reflect on the importance of community and prayer support so you don’t walk through dryness alone.

TONIGHT'S SCRIPTURE

"God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied." - Matthew 5:6

Your Evening Prayer

Lord,
Tonight, I come to You feeling spiritually drained and uncertain. In this season of dryness, help me not to pull away, but to lean in. Stir my hunger and thirst for You, and remind me that You promise I will be filled. I long for Your presence to renew me, guide me, and steady my heart. Teach me what You want to show me in this wilderness season, and keep me from growing weary. Help me hold tightly to Your Word and trust Your promises, even when I can’t see what You’re doing. Fill every empty place in me with Your love, and lead me forward with hope.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
