The River Of God

4 Sep 2009

There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. Psalm 46:4

All throughout the Bible, whenever the presence of God is mentioned, there is always a river flowing through it. “And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations” (Rev. 22:1-2).

Wherever the river flows, four significant things happen:

1) The river of God brings abundant life (22:1). The river of God is also known as the “water of life.” It makes your life fruitful and productive. The only way for our lives to bear fruit and prosper is to draw from the life flowing in this river.

2) The river of God removes your sins and shame. It brings peace and righteousness within you. “Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea” (Is. 48:18).

3) The river of God gives you joy. Are you prone to depression, discouragement, sadness or loneliness? There is a river of God that brings joy and freedom. “There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God” (Ps. 46:4).

4) The river of God leads you to prosperity. There was a river that went out of Eden to water the garden. It flowed to the land where there was gold, bdellium and onyx stones (Gen. 2:10-12). The river of God will bring faith to you so that you can dream bigger dreams. It will bring wisdom to you so that you know how to achieve your dreams. It will bring divine strength and health to you so that you can work hard for that dream. The river of God always leads to a life of prosperity in God.

In John 7:37-39, Jesus says that when we are filled with the Holy Spirit, out of our spirit will fl ow rivers of living water. The Holy Spirit brings the abundant life of God to us; He washes our sins away; gives us the joy of the Lord and leads us into prosperity! Pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you once again with His presence. Let the river of God water your life and refresh you today!

    Fragmentation is what you see in the river when you only see youselve alone,which is an illusion,which is your life situation.River water comes in a whole.Harmonise within yourselve(water atom) and with the people around(flow).Let it float,and take action without action.Then your peace would have been like a river.

    the river of God is full of water… why don’t we go get some… there is plenty to go around… we cannot exhaust the supply of the Spirit of Christ… He gives the Spirit without measure… I will pour water on him who is thirsty… and floods upon the dry ground… my soul thirsts for God for the living God… when shall I go and meet with God… a pure river… of life… flowing inside… purify… seven times… wash my heart my mind… Your word is life…where will I go… you know every breath every step… every hair on my head is measured and all my tears are kept in Your bottle… my eyes pour down rivers of water until You come and show us Your face…
