Testimony Time:-‘Come and drink the Water of Life.’ Revelation 22:17 TLB (Evangelist Bowale Ogunmekan)
The Babylonians encircled Jerusalem and cut off its food supply. The question was, how long could they hold out? That’s what the Babylonians kept wondering. But a month passed, then two, then an entire year, and still they held out.
The secret of Jerusalem’s survival lay in a water supply from a spring outside the city walls where Hezekiah had cut a 1,777-foot tunnel through solid rock. From there water passed under the city walls to a reservoir inside called the Pool of Siloam.
Without it God’s people would have gone down in defeat. But it’s not just another Bible story; there’s an important lesson here for you. To live victoriously you must: 1) know your life’s true source; 2) protect it; 3) draw from it daily. If your security, your strength, your self-worth, or your strategy for living comes from any other source but God, the enemy can defeat you.
Everything you need comes from God, so protect and nurture your relationship with Him, for it will always be the focal point of Satan’s attack. A day without reading God’s Word isn’t merely a slip; it’s a set-up for failure.
Powerlessness isn’t carelessness; it’s foolishness in the extreme. You say, ‘Well, I’m doing okay and I don’t pray or read the Bible very much.’ Maybe you haven’t reached your hour of testing yet. When that comes, without an established source to draw from you’ll struggle more and succeed less.
Is that really how you want to live? If not, the word for you today is: ‘Come and drink the Water of Life.’
We beseech You O Lord to empower us so that our conducts will always give us access to the Water of Life in Jesus name. Amen
