Today's lesson from Ezekiel 47:1-12 talks about life needs water.
What if I told you that God possesses a body of water that He wants you to get into? What if I told you that He wants you to get over your head in this body of water? What if I told you that He wants you to give yourself over to the power of this river, to be swept away in its current; that He wants you to get into a place where you are helpless, and are at the mercy of the river?
How many could honestly say that you are exactly in the center of God's will and that you are right where God wants you to be in your spiritual growth? Are you over your head in the things of the LORD? Are you up to your waist in the things of the LORD? Are you knee deep in the things of the LORD? Are you ankle deep in the things of the LORD? Some of us are holding back on total commitment to the LORD today because we are afraid that if you fully sell out to Him that you will drown. God will never let you down! Some of God's saints have walked through some mighty deep waters over the centuries and God brought them all out. What the LORD did for them, He will also do for you! When you have placed yourself at the mercy of the river, it's a whole lot harder to get back out again. An ever deepening spiritual life is a hedge against failure. Get in as deep as you can!
