“out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” [John 7:38 (RAV)]
July 29
“out of his heart will flow rivers of living water”. The spiritual heart is the innermost being of a person. Faith in Christ – accepting Jesus and believing He is all He promises to be to you – makes a change within.
Becoming a Christian is not applying a truth to the surface and allowing it to sink in. It is a radical heart change: it is the heart that is evil and the heart that the gospel puts right.
Jesus invites those who are thirsty – soul thirsty – to come to Him and drink. The first drink opens up a satisfying and eternal river of water from within and it is a stream replenished by the Holy Spirit.
Followers of Jesus can make the mistake of looking from without for that which the Lord would supply from within.
Streams of living water from the heart must in time reach the furthermost extremity of the life.
