TODAY IS THE BEGINNING OF NEW LIFE, IN YOUR HOME, OFFICE, BUSINESS, MINISTRIES etc. Dear Dynamic People of God, Yesterday I said, tonight we will pray together, and I asked you to get a cup of water. I KNEW YOU HAVE BEEN DECIEVED SPIRITUALLY SEVERA TIMES, DON’T WORRY, YOUR TIME AS COME NOW IN JESUS NAME. BEFORE THE TIME, LET US EDUCATE OURSELVES. 1. The Bible and water are very much connected. Water is mentioned 722 times in the scriptures. That is less than God, Jesus, heaven or love, but many more times than faith, hope, prayer or even worship. When I found that out I thought it very interesting and wanted to learn more from the Bible and water. The first time water is mentioned in the scripture is found in Genesis 1:2 Gen 1:2 The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Before there was anything; light, sun or moon, earth, plants, living creatures or anything else, there was water. Having created the earth out of water, and the sky in the midst of waters, and calling forth living creatures out of water, God continues to bathe his creation with water as a sign of His care. The final time water is mentioned is in Revelations 22:17 Revelations 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let anyone who hears this say, “Come.” Let anyone who is thirsty come. Let anyone who desires drink freely from the water of life. 2. The Bible and Water Speak of Physical Birth Have you ever heard the saying that the natural explains the spiritual? Well it does and hear is just one example of it. In day five of creation we find in Genesis 1:20 God said Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creatures that have life... This passage shows us that life comes out of the water. In the natural birth process that is true also. After conception we continue to develop and grow in what is essentially a sack of water inside the womb. When a woman is in labour and the baby is about to be born, we wait for that water to break so that the baby can come forth into life. Also physical birth (water birth) must come before Spiritual birth as we see in John 3 when Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, is asking questions of Jesus. 3. The Bible and Water Speaks of God’s Word Water symbolizes Gods Word in many places throughout the Bible. In both Psalms and Ephesians water is a symbol of Gods word. Ephesians 5:26 4. In Isaiah the water is a simile for the knowledge of God. Isaiah 55:10-11 5. In Hosea the rains are a sign of the presence of God. Hosea 6:3 6. Finally in Amos water represents social justice: Amos 5:24 Yours Dynamic Servant Ambassador Bode Odewale
