A FLOWING BLESSING
EZEKIEL 47: 7-10
Ezekiel 47:7–10 (NIV): 7 When I arrived there, I saw a great number of trees on each side of the river. 8 He said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah, where it enters the Dead Sea. When it empties into the sea, the salty water there becomes fresh. 9 Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows.
There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live. 10 Fishermen will stand along the shore; from En Gedi to En Eglaim there will be places for spreading nets. The fish will be of many kinds—like the fish of the Mediterranean Sea.
Hi , welcome to The Stable Sanctuary.
In Ezekiel 47:7-10, we access a vivid vision of life-giving waters flowing from the Door of The House [The Sanctuary], transforming the landscape and bringing vitality to all it touches. This passage serves as a powerful reminder of the abundant grace and renewal that God offers to each of us , and to all generations.
A DIVINE WELLSPRING
As we delve into this scripture, we see that the river flows from the temple, symbolizing the presence of God among us. It is in this sacred space that we find our true source of life. Just as the waters flow from the temple, we, too, are called to draw from this divine wellspring. In our moments of need, let us seek out God’s presence, allowing His love to fill us and flow through us.[2Corinthians 6 : 18].
LUSH AND FRUITFUL
Ezekiel describes how the river brings life to everything it touches. The once barren land becomes lush and fruitful, teeming with life. This imagery speaks of the transformative power of God’s grace in our lives. When we allow His love to flow through us, we become agents of healing and restoration in our communities. We are invited to participate in God’s work, bringing hope and renewal to those around us.
A PLENTIFUL HARVEST
The passage brings out a vision of fishermen casting their nets along the banks of the river. The harvest is luxuriant! This serves as a powerful call to action for all of us. We are not merely recipients of God’s grace; we are called to share it abundantly. As we engage with our neighbors and communities, let us be diligent in spreading the love and hope that we have received.
CONCLUSION
Ezekiel 47:7-10 invites us to embrace The River of Life that flows from God’s Sanctuary. Let us draw from this source, allowing it to transform us and empower us to make a difference in the world. Together, we can be vessels of His love, bringing forth life and hope wherever we go.Stay blessed in Christ Jesus.
