Spiritual fountain..!!



Let’s read 7: 37b-39

Jesus said: “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”
By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Did you ever wonder where the water fountain draws so much water from? I don’t think so. Because it is within our common sense to assume that the fountain can only work when there is a constant supply of water through pipes from underneath. Why don’t we use the same common sense to discern how the “Spiritual fountain” works??

When you believe in Jesus Christ, not just your thirst is quenched but you also become a “Spiritual fountain” to comfort, reassure and bless others around you. And this “Spiritual fountain” like any other fountain works only when CONSTANT SUPPLY is guaranteed. Let your belief in Christ be unceasing so that your cup may be filled first (read Psalm 23). God will not stop His supply of the living water once you are full. The excess will overflow from within you for God’s purpose to be fulfilled in your life.

Jesus Christ has been glorified (through His resurrection) and the Holy Spirit has been given (on the day of the Pentecost)!! All you need to do is empty your heart with humility and submission to receive the Holy Spirit with reverence. Once your FAITH (read Romans 10:17) ceases, the “living water” supply ceases too..!

BELIEVE to BE FILLED; BE FILLED to OVERFLOW; OVERFLOW to be a BLESSING..!
