In The Flow
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
(John 7:37-39)
Thought For Today:
When we look into scripture, there are channels of truth that just seem to flow our way. Jesus said that the Holy Ghost would be as a river of water flowing out of you. Ezekiel saw this flowing truth issuing from inside the temple of God and it proceeded into the dry places (Ezekiel 47). Jesus told Nicodemus that it was a requirement for the New Birth (John 3:1-5), and Paul said that without it we are none of His (Romans 8:9). This Spirit of Truth can make a blind man see, a lame man walk and the dumb man talk. Once it begins to flow, Jeremiah said, it's like fire shut-up in your bones. "But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost", Jesus said (Mark 13:11). When you are in the flow, the Truth will make you free.
