"And it shall come to pass, that everything that liveth, which moveth,
whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live." - Ezek. 47:9
Listen to this promise, my soul, and make it the subject of this
morning's meditation, of this day, and every day. See how rich, how
extensive it is in the life-promising power. And the river of life in
Jesus possesseth all these blessed effects. To every poor sinner,
brought into this rich stream, it gives life, spiritual life, eternal
life. And who shall describe the length, the breadth, the heights, the
depths of it? Not only extending over all the continent of the earth,
but from the borders of hell to heaven, and from one eternity to
another. And its sovereignty is such that it bears down all before
it - washing away sin, and guilt, and misery; diffusing streams of life,
and grace, and mercy; opening sources of joy, and peace, and happiness,
forever and forever. Oh precious, precious Jesus, make glad my soul
with the streams of this river; be thou the fountain of all my
happiness, and let all my springs be in thee.
