John 7:37
Life in the Spirit is about digging out a well. God wants to dig into us removing the dirt, rocks, boulders that cover up the living water He has put in us. Notice he says streams of living waters. Notice it says Plural (streams) and not just a trickle but streams.
Streams of what. Living waters. That means streams of joy, streams of healing, streams of deliverance. Streams of salvation. The living water or streams are for others. The Lord has to take out of us what shouldn’t be there so that he can put in what he wants to put in us. Displacement ensures that the HS has enough room inside of us to move and accomplish what he wants to accomplish through us. Many times we just have a little trickle or a few drops flowing out of our lives. A powerless and ineffective Christian life. Opposition attaches to what we don’t remove. We give the enemy certain rights over our lives when we fail to partner with the lord in our ongoing development. Water creates life. The Holy Spirit generates power. Maintaining a great relationship with God and the Holy Spirit is vital.
