1. Jesus said that rivers of living water would flow from within those who believed in Him. The Gospel of John explains that He was referring to the Spirit, which would be received by those who believed. In the resurrection, God glorified Him, and He became the life-giving Spirit. This Spirit is in us, not only to quench our thirst, but to flow from us, like rivers of living water, to supply others (John 7:38-39, 1 Corinthians 15:45).
2. Abraham called upon the name of the Lord. Calling upon the name of the Lord Jesus is like drawing water, like pumping living water into our inner being, and this water should flow from us to other people. However, the Spirit may still seem like something abstract; therefore, the word illuminates us, revealing that it is in the word that we find the Spirit (Genesis 21:25, 30, 33; John 6:63).
3. The Spirit is the source of the living water that we can find in the word. All who wish to bear fruit for the Lord need to remain near the source of these waters. Many live as if in the desert, exhausted and without living water, even though they possess material riches. We, however, endure like tamarisk trees, for we know where the springs are and how to drink from them. Let us, therefore, bring living water to people (John 7:37-39; 6:63; Jeremiah 17:7-8).
4. The snake managed to inject its genetic material into man, ruining him. But, according to God’s plan, Christ is now being used by God as the Sower, who sows the seed of God in the heart of man. In Christ there is a new hope, the hope of sowing the divine seed, the seed of the kingdom” (Matthew 13:3, 18-23) (Daily Food, book 4, week 2, Tuesday, p. 25).
