River of Life

DEAD SEA OR RIVER OF LIFE?

He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. John 7:38

In Jerusalem there is the well known Sea of Galilee. It is the same sea that the Lord Jesus told the disciples to cast their nets again bringing up a bountiful supply of fish. Flowing into and out of the Sea of Galilee is the well known Jordan River. This is the same river that Jesus came to be baptized in. The Sea of Galilee has this river flowing right through it and because it does there is growth in and around it. There is literally a River of Life flowing in and out of it. But if you follow the Jordan River downstream you come to the deepest place on Earth, the Dead Sea. Out of the Dead Sea flows nothing. Because there is no flow there and because there isn’t any flow there isn't any life either.

Do you have the River of Life flowing out of you? Do you have the Fruit of the Spirit to prove it? Do you see growth in your life? Are you investing in the lives of others to see growth in them? If Jesus lives in you He will be flowing out of you and into other people’s life.

Do you have a River of Life flowing out of you or are you a dead sea?
