11-20-07 John 7:38

John 7:38 (NAS)
He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water.’

John 7:38 (NLT)
If you believe in me, come and drink! For the Scriptures declare that rivers of living water will flow out from within.
John 7:38 (Philips)
The man who believes in me, as the scripture said, will have rivers of living water flowing from his inmost heart.

You have been persuaded of the truth of the gospel and have put your confidence in Yeshua, the Messiah. Your faith has brought you into a saving relationship with Adonai. You believe that God exists and that He is the Creator, the Ruler of the universe, and your Provider.
You also have believed in God's Word, His Scripture. You know that it is here that Adonai declares His thoughts and brings His essence and character to light. He exposes Himself to public view. Through what the Lord says, you begin to understand how He reasons and what is in His mind.

From your belief in God and His Word, you receive many benefits. He causes rivers and streams of refreshment, strength, and nourishment to flow out from your innermost being, your heart. These floods of water have vital power and are life giving to you, as well as to others. They make you fresh, strong, efficient, and powerful.
Therefore, choose to drink from the living water. Center your thoughts, feelings, and soul on the Source of that water and you will have a continual supply
