I was came across Ezekiel chapter 47 in devotions. It is one of my most favorite chapters to read because of its wonderful, surreal imagery of living waters that flow forth out from under the threshold of God's House, and from under the altar.

The waters flow down into the desert and into the sea, and everywhere these waters flow to becomes a river. Ezekiel went into these waters little by little until he was swimming in it.

This river even brings forth new fruit. This is all future and will be realized in during the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ.

However I cannot help but read this chapter without thinking of the rivers of water of life that now flow through us as a "new creation." This is the very life of God living within us. These life-giving waters have only one source. Which is the Bible, the word of God. The word is Jesus Christ.

"His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God." Revelation 19:13.

But many people these days do not read their Bibles because they only look at it without realizing its heavenly artesian source. They go about always thirsty and trying to drink from other dead water sources.

They are like withering branches and can never bear any fruit. They do not live at the Well of Life, but in "marshes and mirey places that cannot be healed."

There is a standing invitation: " the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." Revelation 22:17.

"The Bible does not thrill; the Bible nourishes. Give time to the reading of the Bible and the recreating effect is as real as that of fresh air physically."

~ Oswald Chambers
