Let the rivers flow! Get rid of all the blockages from your heart that will keep the rivers from flowing. Jesus said in John 7:38, “He that believeth on Me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living waters!”
Your inner life—your heart condition—is the most important thing to the Lord! All dams or blockages must go! Dams of unforgivens, condemnation, selfishness, pride, the lust of the flesh, and bitterness. The past are the dams that will hinder the rivers of the Spirit of God to flow to others, and they must go! Things that block the flow of the Lord’s Spirit must go!
Do not quench the Spirit of the Lord!
(1 Thes. 5:19)
In other words, don’t be a beaver and build a dam that blocks the flow of God’s river. Let the rivers of the Spirit of Christ flow. When waters are blocked they begin to stink, carry diseases, mold, moss, algae and then they turn green. But waters that flow continually are bright and clean, and people can drink from them. We are to be living waters!
