Pour It Out!


Isaiah 44:3-4
For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty,
and floods upon the dry ground:
I will pour my spirit upon thy seed,
and my blessing upon thine offspring: 
And they shall spring up as among the grass,
as willows by the water courses.

Don't you just love this scripture today?  It is God's answer for what we lack. Look closely at what the Lord is speaking to us...

He says, "I will POUR water upon him that is thirsty". Oh how awesome is that?  God sees the need of our thirst. He sees our thirst and He's not speaking about our desire for something to drink. He takes notice of our need for righteousness. The Bible tells us in another scripture that He will bless those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. But look really close!  He not only meets our need or satisfies our thirst, but He POURS it upon us. He doesn't just give us a drink or taste. No, He pours His Spirit upon us. 

Then He will "flood the dry ground". Our souls are so dry and thirsty, just as a desert landscape. God pours out His Spirit upon us and it floods over. It floods throughout our life unto the lives of others. It flows in our hearts. It then flows into our marriage. Then onto our children and their children. When we are filled with the Spirit, it has a great way of showing. There is no mistaken when someone is living in the Spirit of God. 

Notice the last thing He says... "They shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water". God satisfies you, then He saturates you and others around you, and then He strengthens you!  

God please send the waters today. Send the Holy Spirit upon us right now. I pray for those reading today that may be dry and thirsty. Pour out your flooding Spirit upon them. In Jesus Name, Amen
