As I was praying for someone who is a beloved of God the other day, I saw a vision of a beautiful, crystal clear river flowing down from the throne of God. This river flowed right into that person's home.
The
Lord then said this vision is also for every beloved of God. So, it's not just
for that particular person. But this vision is also for you who are reading
this.
That's
when the Lord also said: "My river is bringing healing to your home. My
river is bringing restoration to your home. My river is bringing peace to your
home. My river is bringing provision to your home. My river is bringing
refreshing to your home."
The
Lord said further: "Surrender to Me your sicknesses. Surrender to Me
your brokenness. Surrender to Me your strife and disharmony in your home, if
there's any. Surrender to Me your lack. Surrender to Me your staleness. Let My
river flow right into your life and your home. Receive and drink by
faith."
Yes,
beloved of God, receive all that the Lord has spoken today. This river comes
from the throne of God. This river is for you and for your home, wherever you
are, and whatever situation you may be facing at the moment.
Have
you been going through strife or misunderstanding in your household recently?
Have you been going through certain challenges in life recently? Or have you
been suffering lack recently? Or maybe you have been going through a difficult
situation in your office, at your workplace, or in the ministry.
Whatever
your situation may be, come and receive from this river of God! This river is
flowing right now. This river brings healing and restoration. This river brings
refreshing. This river brings everything that you ever need in your life.
We
want to go to some Bible verses on the river of God, and what this river
brings.
Let's
begin with Psalm 65:9-10. The psalmist wrote: 'You visit the earth
and water it, You greatly enrich it; The river of God is full
of water; You provide their grain, for so You have prepared it. You water its
ridges abundantly, You settle its furrows; You make it soft with showers, You
bless its growth.'
See
'the river of God' here? Whatever your situation may be, I declare that this
river from the throne of God has been released upon you, your family, your
household, your home!
Psalm
36:7-9 says, 'How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore
the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings. They are
abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house, and You give them drink
from the river of Your pleasures. For with You is the fountain of life; In Your
light we see light.'
Because
the Lord loves you, and you are precious in God's eyes, it is God's pleasure to release this river to you. Wherever this river
flows, it brings life.
So,
what's your part? The psalmist said here: "Drink from it." Yes, drink
and receive by faith!
Psalm
1:1-3 says, 'Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of
the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the
scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he
meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of
water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not
wither, and whatever he does shall prosper.'
If you read the news recently, there may be some recession happening in some
nations of the world. But as for you, beloved, I want to declare upon you,
wherever you may be, yes, even in the nation or the nations that have
recession: "But you shall drink from this river. You shall still be
fruitful. Your leaves shall not wither. And whatever you do shall
prosper." Amen!
Let's
move on to Ezekiel now. In Ezekiel 47:7-9, Ezekiel said: 'When I
returned, there, along the bank of the river, were very many trees on one side
and the other. Then he (a messenger of God) said to me: "This water flows
toward the eastern region, goes down into the valley, and enters the sea. When
it reaches the sea, its waters are healed. And it shall be that every living
thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great
multitude of fish, because these waters go there, for they will be healed, and
everything will live wherever the river goes."'
This
is the river of the glory of God. This is the river of the Holy Spirit. And
this river is now here flowing right into your life and your home!
I
know Ezekiel was referring to the temple of God here. But beloved, under the
New Covenant, you too are the temple of God. You are the temple of the Holy
Spirit. That's what the Scripture says. You are the temple of the Holy Spirit
where the Holy Spirit dwells in. Check it out in 2 Corinthians 6:16, 'For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I
will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be
My people."'
Ezekiel
47:12 says, 'Along the bank of the river, on this side and that,
will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and
their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their
water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves
for medicine (for healing).'
You see? Your fruit will not
fail, in spite of whatever shakings, whether it's economic shakings, recession,
slow economic growth, zero economic growth, or negative economic growth.
Let's
go all the way now to Revelation 22:1-2. 'And he (an angel of the
Lord) showed me (John) a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal,
proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb (the Lamb of God, Jesus). 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.'
As you receive from this river,
you yield fruit every month. Not once in a long time. Not once in
many months. But every month. In other words, every month there's fruitfulness.
Yes, pray for your nation. Let healing flow into your nation. Not just that. Let healing flow into your household. Let healing flow into the ministry God has given you. Let healing flow into your business. Let healing flow into your career. And of course, let healing flow into your physical health.
Isaiah
58:11 says, 'The Lord will guide you continually, and satisfy your
soul in drought, and strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered
garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.'
You
see, in this river, not only is there healing, restoration, and refreshing; but
there is also guidance, wisdom, and revelation. This river has everything you
ever need in your life. This river comes from the throne of God. This river is
from heaven. The river of the Holy Spirit. This is not like any other river on
this earth. This river can never dry up!
This
river is in abundance. This river will continue to flow, as long as you open
your heart, receive and drink from it. This river is for you. Amen!
Last
Bible verse of the day. In Isaiah 44:3, the Lord says: "For I will pour water on him who is
thirsty, and floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your
descendants, and My blessing on your offspring."
What are the areas in your life that you are 'thirsty'? What are the areas in your life that you suffer lack? By faith, receive this verse. The Lord is filling those lack. And look here. It's not just a trickle of water. It's an outpouring of God's river.
Receive
and drink from this water. He is pouring it forth upon you. His Spirit is upon
you. His Spirit is upon all that you put your hands on. His Spirit is even upon
your offspring, your household, your family, your home. Hallelujah!
