Words from the Lord: "New ideas and strategies will flow this month!"

The Lord says: 

"This month is a month of breath of fresh air in the spirit for many of My people. There's a fresh revelation. There's a brand new purpose. There will be new ideas and new strategies that I am giving to you. A new chapter has begun. A new door has been opened. Walk in it. Receive it. Never mind if you have missed out in the past, but this is the time to begin to look forward to the new opening that I have for you."  

Joshua 1:1-2 (NKJV) says, 'After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, it came to pass that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' assistant, saying: "Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land I am giving to them..."'

In Joshua 1:9, the Lord said further, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you..." 

That's what the Lord spoke to Joshua. And the Lord is saying the same to you right now!

At this point of time in Joshua chapter 1, there was a significant and pivotal change in Joshua's life. What was that pivot? God gave him new strategies. God gave him new mission. God gave him new purposes. As God has spoken to Joshua, God is speaking the same to you too! Not just that. God released His revelation to Joshua on how to go about, as he looked forward. That time has come for Joshua, both spiritually and physically. 

By the way, what is 'pivotal'? It is defined as 'of crucial importance in relation to the development and success of something'. In other words, the time is coming when you shall see something of greater significance happening in your life. That is the prophetic word for you at the moment. And it will be good!

So, Joshua chapter 1 is the key here. It is happening both spiritually and physically. In the spiritual realm and in the physical realm. It means not just in the spirit, but something you can see with your physical eyes. 

The Lord is saying this to you right now: "Be strong and be of good courage. Do not be afraid. Do not be dismayed. Get yourself ready to face a greater future!" 

Will you by faith receive these words? And whatever happens in the spirit shall be manifested in the natural, in the physical realm, in ways that you can see. Do not let the devil rob that from you! Also, receive a renewed strength from the Lord. Not just that. Receive new ideas, revelation, and even strategies from the Lord, as God opens new doors and new horizons for you! 

And the Lord is saying: "A major shift is coming! From the old to the new! It has begun!" 

Very interestingly, do you know Joshua actually had a name change prior to that? Many people actually don't know about this. So, it's not just people like Jacob or Abram who had name change. You know that, from Jacob to Israel, from Abram to Abraham. Each of these name change brought with it a change of character, and in turn, a change of fortune as well. Now, I'm not saying we all should go to the registration office and change our name. But what I'm saying is there will be a change of character and change of fortune in the spirit for you. And this change is to the better!

You see, throughout the Scripture, a name change is very significant and pivotal. One major example that we all know is from Jacob to Israel. That change led to something greater. So, it's not just about character change. It's more than that. 

How about Joshua? Let me show you in the Scripture. Numbers 13:8 (NKJV) says, '...from the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun...' Notice this name 'Hoshea'. And then, Numbers 13:16 (NKJV) says, 'These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land (the Promised Land, the land flowing with milk and honey). And Moses called Hoshea, the son of Nun, Joshua.' 

See? From Hoshea to Joshua! And it was Moses himself who called Hoshea a new name, Joshua. Now, that was a preparation point for something of greater significance to happen in Joshua's life. For the record, Moses at that time was getting his people to spy out the land of Canaan, the land which the Lord was about to give them. But you see, everyone who went to spy came back with negative report. They were afraid to take the land. There were two exceptions: Joshua and Caleb. They had a different mindset. They came back with good report. They saw new horizons and new opportunities, instead of difficulties. And you know what? The rest is history for Joshua and Caleb. They went into the Promised Land and conquered the land. 

Have you ever wondered what is the meaning of the old name 'Hoshea' and the new name 'Joshua'? 'Hoshea', the old name, simply means 'salvation' or 'deliverance'. How about 'Joshua'? 'Joshua', the new name, or rather, 'Yehoshua' as written in the Hebrew Bible, means 'YHWH saves' or 'YHWH delivers'. Some people may not notice this. But you see, something greater has been added! Where is the difference between the old and the new, 'Hoshea' and 'Yehoshua'? That difference is the name of the Lord God Almighty, YHWH, has been added to his name! 

To a stranger, that may not mean anything much. Nothing to shout about. But God! To God, and in the spiritual realm, it was like a major shift! It was like a major earthquake in the spirit that was about to shake and change history. And change it did! It was pivotal. It was of great significance. A change that marked the beginning of a new destiny and new journey for Joshua. And beginning at that point, God was assuring him that He is with Joshua. God's with him. God's backing him up in this new destiny and new journey. Joshua is not alone in this. God paved the way for him. And most importantly, God's with him in all the battles going forward! 

Now, the same it is with you, like Joshua, whatever 'opening' that God has for you, going forward! 

In Greek, this name 'Yehoshua' ('Joshua' in our English Bible) is translated 'Iesous'. This is actually the same form as Jesus' name in the New Testament. So, as you can see here, 'Yehoshua' (or 'Joshua') is a typology or a 'type' of 'Yeshua' (or 'Jesus'). 

For Yeshua (or Jesus), it was also at Jordan River that was pivotal. What happened there? He was baptized by John the Baptist there. You know what happened then and there? Heaven opened! The Spirit of God descended upon Jesus like a dove. Now, mark this word 'descended', because I'm going to explain it to you later. Not only the Spirit of God descended upon Jesus, a voice from heaven declared, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." 

You know what's the pivot there? That marked the beginning of something new in Yeshua's time on earth. And now you see the same for Yehoshua (or Joshua) in Joshua chapter 1. The Lord was preparing him to lead the people to cross that same Jordan River into the Promised Land. And the Lord said to Joshua: "Be strong and be of good courage. Do not be afraid, for I, YHWH, am with you." 

What is the significance of this Jordan River? There's a similarity here both to Jesus and Joshua. This Jordan River was pivotal to both of them. The name 'Jordan' is 'Yarden' in Hebrew, which is derived from the word 'yarad', meaning 'to descend' or 'to flow down'. 

In other words, like river of water flowing down from the mountain. Like a waterfall falling upon you. The spiritual significance of this is just as the river of water flows down from top to bottom, God's revelation, God's power, and God's Spirit flows down from heaven to earth upon you! You know what this means? All the good that God has for you from above is now beginning to fall on you! Receive this by faith! This is the revelation today. And this includes new ideas from above, new strategies from above, and even new strength from above! 

No wonder Joshua never looked back ever since. Now, the same it is for you, beloved. Amen!

Let this river flow into your home!

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!

Prophetic words: Your transition time is coming to an end!

The Lord says: 

"For many of My people, your time of transition is coming to an end. There will be a fresh new outlook. There will be a fresh new start. New and exciting things are coming your way. Persevere through this last push. Persevere through this final push. Stay strong in Me and keep your focus on Me. Never let the enemy to cause you to be disoriented or out of focus. Because My light is waiting for you at the end of the tunnel."

Hallelujah! This is a good news for you who look to God! Your transition time is coming to an end, and your breakthrough is just around the corner! God is in the midst of setting you free from your past, and you will see yourself starting afresh and anew!

Psalm 46:1-3 (NKJV) says, 'God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling.' 

In a time of transition like this, and when you need to persevere through this last push, look to God for His strength. He is a very present help for you. We thank God for His past help. But God is saying right now 'a very present help'. It shows that He is near to you. He is not far from you. He is not nowhere. But He is now here with you! He will see you through this time of transition, and He will lead you forth from here! I declare that new and exciting things are coming your way!

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

'River' here speaks of the Holy Spirit. Why? Because Holy Spirit has the nature like a river. And what does a river do? River cleanses you from all the "rubbish and dirt" in your life. River washes you from all your past guilt and condemnation. Not just that. River also refreshes. River is always life-giving. 'River' is therefore a 'picture' of life, joy and peace of the Lord! And God has promised you this 'river'! 

That's why you have every reason to rejoice at this juncture of your life! Just don't look back at your past. Look ahead. You can learn from your past. But look ahead. I declare that greater things are ahead of you, and the best is yet to come! 

Let me explain a little on Psalm 46:4. Here, the psalmist actually gave a 'picture' of the abundant provision of a river for the city of God (i.e. the city of Jerusalem). This is actually a prophetic declaration by the psalmist, because geographically speaking, Jerusalem does not have such a river, except for a few small streams. Yet the psalmist anticipated the day is coming when a mighty river would flow in the city of God and flow from the temple of God itself! 

How to apply this to your life as a believer under the New Covenant? 

You are the temple of the Holy Spirit! And like the river flowing in the temple in Jerusalem, this river (i.e. the Holy Spirit) is now flowing in you, through you, and out of you!

Right now, as you read this, let the Lord release His abundant provision of His life-giving river, joy-giving river, and peace-giving river into your life, especially in those areas that have been 'dead' or dull! 

Psalm 46:10-11 (NKJV) says, 'Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.' 

The word 'still' here is 'raphah' in Hebrew, and it can mean 'let go (to God), restful, cease from your restlessness'. 

In other words, as you let go (to God), be restful in Him, and cease from your restlessness, know that He is God, He is still in control of your life, He has a destiny for your life, and He will make good His promises for your life! 

Interestingly, this word 'raphah' here has the same root as the word 'rapha'. The Lord our God is the Jehovah Rapha. And 'rapha' in Hebrew can mean 'heal, repair, cure, made well, made whole'. 

You know what this means? As you are being restful before the Lord, know that He is beginning the process of 'rapha', i.e. healing you, repairing your situation, curing you, making you well, and making you whole! Spirit, soul, body! And in whatever situation you may be facing at the moment!

Do you see the correlation between 'being still before the Lord' and 'your breakthrough'?

So, in a time and season like this, receive the river from above to heal you and restore you. Release and let go all those past hurts, pains, and fears to Jesus. See all these being carried away on the cross. Receive the grace to forgive yourself and forgive others who have hurt you. Condemn yourself no more for your past wrongs or mistakes. Last but not least, receive His unfailing love for you. Remember, you are loved by God not because of what you've done, but because of who you are in Him. You are a beloved of God! 

Let us pray: 

"O Lord God, we thank You that our time of transition is coming to an end. We receive by faith new and exciting things in our lives. We thank You that You are giving us a fresh new outlook and a fresh new start. We receive Your strength right now. We receive Your grace right now. We will not let the enemy to cause us to be disoriented or out of focus. We focus on You instead, O Lord God, and we declare that our victory and breakthrough is now here! In Jesus' name. Amen."

What does it mean by being blessed of the Lord?

Psalm 1:1-3 (NKJV) 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'.

The word 'blessed' here in Hebrew is 'esher', literally meaning 'happiness'. It comes from the word 'ashar', and in the context of the Scripture here, it can mean 'to be happy, to be right, to go forward, to be guided (by the Lord), to be led (by the Lord)'. That is to say 'Happy, right, going forward, guided by the Lord, led by the Lord' is the man who chooses not to walk in the counsel of the ungodly, but rather, his delight is in the Word of God!

Notice the words 'walks', 'stands', and 'sits' in Psalm 1:1? These are verbs, i.e. 'words used to describe an action'. You see? The above verbs speak of the choices you need to make, for example, to walk in the counsel of the ungodly, or not to walk in the counsel of the ungodly.

People of God, choose not the way of the ungodly, but choose to delight in the Word of God instead! And that's how you shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf shall not wither, and whatever you do shall prosper!

The Lord spoke these words recently:
"Do not look at the 'parched and dry lands', but look to Me and trust in Me, for I am the Source of the rivers of water in your lives."

What does 'parched and dry lands' mean here? The Scripture says in 2 Peter 3:6-7 (New Life Version), 'Long ago the earth was covered with water and it was destroyed. But the heaven we see now and the earth we live on now have been kept by His word. They will be kept until they are to be destroyed by fire. They will be kept until the day men stand before God and sinners will be destroyed'. Going by the verses here, the world we live in isn't going to get any better, and we all know it. But in spite of this, there is hope, and this hope only comes when we look to God and trust in God!

Indeed, this is an even more crucial time to keep looking to the Lord and keep trusting in His Word, no matter what happens to this earth, and no matter how 'parched and dry' this world has become, both spiritually and physically. Those who keep looking to Him and keep trusting in His Word are blessed ('esher') people!

There is another Hebrew word for 'blessed', and this word is 'barak'. You can find this word in Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NKJV) that says, 'Blessed ('barak') is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; but its leaf will be green, and will not be anxious (worried) in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit'.

The word 'blessed' (or 'barak' in Hebrew) here can mean 'benefit, abundance, honor'. The word 'honor' here is very interesting, and you can say that 'to be blessed is to see God honoring you and God honoring whatever you put your hands to do'! So, not only do you have the 'benefits' and 'abundance' of every good thing that He wants to give you, the Lord also knows how to honor you, and that is, when you put your trust and hope in Him!

The expression 'will not fear when heat comes' (or 'will not see when heat comes' in KJV) means you who put your trust and hope in the Lord will not be affected by the heat ('parched and dry times' on earth), and you will still be yielding fruit (and your leaf will still be green), no matter what happens around you. That, my friend, is the state of being blessed of the Lord!

I end this article with Psalm 34:8-10 (NKJV) that says, 'Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want (lack) to those who fear Him. The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing'.

Like a tree planted by the rivers

Psalm 1:3 (NKJV): 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.

Notice the word 'rivers' here. It's plural, which means more than one river. In John 7:37-38 (referring to the Holy Spirit), again notice the word 'rivers' of living water flowing out from you as you drink from Him.

Now, if 'rivers' refer to the Holy Spirit, then 'tree' refers to you as a believer. Psalm 1:1-2 says "Blessed is the man (i.e. believer)... whose delight is in the law of the Lord." The law here is none other than the Aleph Tav, the Alpha and the Omega, i.e. Jesus Christ Himself who has fulfilled the law (Matthew 5:17). He is the Word of God (John 1:1). So, this is also the time to meditate on the Word of God. Word and Spirit. Spirit and Word. These are keys. That's when Psalm 1:1-2 says in Him, you are blessed! Like a tree planted by the rivers of water! That's who you are!

As you are being planted, know that there'll surely be fruit. It means you can expect fruit. Any gardener will tell you that fruit comes forth easily (& effortlessly) when there's a right condition for the plant. So, you don't have to force 'it' out! You don't have to try hard and strive to 'make it happen'! Because He is the One who makes 'it' grow! In short, His 'rivers' bring you to your fruitfulness! His 'rivers' lead and guide you to your fruitfulness in all that you do!

This is a time to get near the river and drink. This is a time to allow Him to plant, and for some, replant you.

Different tree bears different fruit. Each kind of fruit has its own uniqueness and use. So, this is also the year you'll find (discover) your originality. Whatever tree you are meant to be (or destined to be), that'll be the fruit you'll bear! You know what it means? He wants you to grow in the calling and giftings He has given you, and not try to be someone else. He, the Planter, is here to help you. Rest in Him, and let Him do His work in you this year.

Let's now go to the Hebrew word for 'planted'. It is pronounced 'shathal' in Hebrew, which can also mean 'transplanted'. To transplant is to remove a growing plant with its roots, and replant it elsewhere, and in this case, by the river! Have you been far from the 'rivers' in the past months? Never mind about those months. Past is past. What matters is now, and it's never too late for Him to 'replant' you again.

Interestingly, this word 'shathal' (planted) is also where the word 'shathiyah' comes from, meaning 'to drink or to absorb'. Another meaning of the word 'shathiyah' is 'banquet'. Psalm 23:5 says the Lord prepares a table (or banquet) spread out before you, and your cup runs over. Wow! Overflowing of His living waters! Do you believe this is what the year's going to be for you? In fact, everything you ever needed can be found in His 'rivers'! In them, you find revelation, blessing, healing, restoration, abundance, anointing, and the list goes on. Hence the plurality of the word 'rivers'.

And the best part is His 'rivers' will never dry up or be exhausted, because He is unlimited. See Ezekiel 47:3-5. And where it flows, there'll be healing (Ezekiel 47:8). Where it flows, there'll be resurrection and life (Ezekiel 47:9). Where it flows, there'll also be harvest and abundance (Ezekiel 47:10). Praise God! Ezekiel 47:12 then 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 (i.e. throne of God). Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine."

Notice 'fruit' (for food) here speaks of your blessing, and 'leaves' (for medicine) here speaks of your healing. Blessing and healing! In Him, you have all the blessing and healing you needed! Not just that, you shall bear fruit every month in a year, not just a few months in a year. Let's now cross-refer to Revelation 22:1-2. It says 'bearing 12 fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month.' See? Each fruit in each month, 12 months in a year! He wants you blessed not just a few months in a year, but every month in a year! It means every month this year, you'll have more than enough, and every month this year, you should be in good health. Believing, you'll receive. Amen! '12' also speaks of 'divine power'. It means you'll bear fruit not by your own power, but by His power working in you! Praise God! I know this verse talks about the New Jerusalem, but the truth is what happens in heaven can be reflected in you even right now on earth! The Bible says His kingdom come, His will be done (in your life) on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).

Revelation 22:3 then says "there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it..." Jesus has carried them all when He died for you on the cross. And today, you can receive His blessing (fruit for food) and healing (leaves for medicine) freely. No more curse and reproach. All carried away! So, go ahead! The river is here, and it's for you to drink and receive! Drink (& keep drinking) from Him, and all that you do this year shall prosper (Psalm 1:3). Amen!
