10/13/2023 – Whoa!: “Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him…” John 7: 38-40 // Trace it back to Moses’ prophecy some 3,300 years ago. See comment
The Jordan and The Galilee
Friday, October 13, 2023
The Jordan, Israel’s greatest river begins in the northern mountains. The Jordan – Ha Yarden in Hebrew means: The descender, because it continually flows down. It flows from the mountain heights, into the Sea of Galilee and then continues out the other side. It’s a profound picture of divine heavenly life. Messiah is The Descender; Ha Yarden. He’s the One who comes down from the heights to give His life for us. We, like the Sea of Galilee, have to receive Him in order to become alive. You have to receive His life, not just once, but continuously, the living waters flowing into you everyday. But it’s only completed when the Galilee gives of the water that it receives from the Jordan. So in the same way, when you receive God’s love and forgiveness, then give love and forgiveness. You’ve been blessed and touched, so bless and touch. That’s true life, Messiah flowing into us and out from us. It’s amazing. Let “The Descender” – the Jordan flow through you and you will be as blessed as the Sea of Galilee.
From Message #451 – The Waters of Zion
Scripture: John 7:38
TODAY’S MISSION – Allow the love of Messiah to flow through you by blessing or helping someone in need today.

Comment:
I never thought I would see the day in this country when such vitrol demonic hate would be unleashed at God’s chosen people. Jew and Gentile, we are ultimately one body in Christ. But make no mistake, The Lord our God is in total control. Evil does not seek the amazing light shining forth from these three verses, tracing back all the way to Moses in Deuteronomy. Evil only knows the darkness that their father the devil throws them into.
I invite you to explore John Gill’s commentary on John 7, verses 38 through 40. The link below starts with verse 38, just hit the arrow to verse 39, followed by 40. And take the time to follow the connecting verses, notwithstanding all the Old Testament prophecies of Yeshua (Jesus) the Christ, our living water: “Ha Yarden”.

I will attempt to summarize the verses referenced in these three verses from the Gospel of John:
John 7:38: Isaiah 28:16 / Habakkuk 2:4 / Isaiah 41:17; 41:18; 43:20; 44:3; 58:11 / Joel 2:28
John 7:39: Isaiah 44:3 / Joel 2:28 (don’t miss: “The Day of the Lord” prophecy and the “pouring out of my spirit”!)
John 7:40: Acts 2:33 & 2:36
Soli Deo Gloria indeed!
Always connected by His grace and through prayer! Walk in His victory!
Your brother in Christ,
