"THE LORD IS THERE"

Oh, to study the Word that is Alive, (the breathe of God) and the Joy of knowing the Holy Spirit is right beside you giving supernatural understanding of each word, there's nothing that can compare. One can not just read through it and say, "I have read through the entirety of the Bible". You miss out on the benefits if you don't diligently seek what God wants you to Spiritually see, feel and hear through His Holy Spirit as you read. If you don't expect something but reading, that is what you will get. If you pray for revelation as you read and ask that your spiritual eyes be opened to what God wants you to see and your spiritual ears to ear what God wants you to hear, that is what you will get. This week my Bible study with the "One Year Chronological Bible" has been in Ezekiel. Also reading the study bible, "The New Spirit Filled Life Bible" (TNSFLB) shines more light on the meaning of Ezekiel 40:1-48:35. These scriptures tell of the new temple and the order of worship for Israel. Most importantly they conclude with the name of the city, Yahweh Shammah, "THE LORD IS THERE". This is the key for understanding this whole vision of Ezekiel, which is paralleled by Rev. 21:1-22:15. The meaning of the name of the city, Yahweh Shammah, "THE LORD IS THERE", is significant. The vision of Ezekiel 40-48 reveals to the prophet a picture of a restoration of not just the people spiritually, but of a restored land with its center in the temple of God. The vision assured the prophet that one day God would again dwell with humanity and be worshiped in the spirit and truth (see John 4:23). (TNSFLB) THE WALK OF FAITH - As New Testament believers, we have two exciting and uniquely wonderful opportunities. The first is to look forward in faith to the heavenly temple. From it flows the river of God, whose waters bring life and healing to everything they touch. The second is to understand that we can walk in the river of God now. We have within us the Holy Spirit and God's resurrection power. The Lord desires to use us as instruments of healing to the nations to extend His healing to everything we touch. (TNSFLB) "The New Spirit Filled Life Bible" has a TRUTH-IN-ACTION at the end of each Book of the Bible which takes you into a more depth study of high points of each book, Old and New Testament. The high points of Ezekiel 40:1-48:35 are below: In faith, look forward to this heavenly temple, representing God's eternal dwelling place with His people. Walk into the river...We are to walk increasingly deeper in the Holy Spirit, releasing ourselves entirely to Him. Ask the Lord to take you deeper in the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit. Receive the Holy Spirit's fullness in your life today. Understand that "the river" in these verses can represent the outpouring and blessing of the Holy Spirit given by Jesus to His church (John 7:37-39). Allow the living water of God's Spirit to touch you and flow out of you. I will bring healing and abundant fruitfulness (Rev. 22:1-5).
