Vickie Conrad, Ezekiel 47. This message explores the narrative of how water is a recurring theme from Genesis to Revelation, symbolizing God's provision and life-giving power. In Genesis, God provides life-sustaining water through rivers and rain, but human thirst for more than just water leads to spiritual drought. Throughout the Bible, figures like Jacob and the Israelites encounter water in transformative ways, yet often fall into spiritual drought due to their own desires. The prophet Ezekiel's vision of a life-giving river flowing from the temple represents God's Spirit reviving a barren land. This vision is fulfilled by Jesus, who offers living water to quench spiritual thirst, symbolized by the water flowing from His side on the cross. Believers, as temples of God, are called to let this living water flow through them, bringing life to others and fulfilling God's vision of a renewed creation.
