“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Revelation 22: 14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter through the gates into the city.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
Hallelujah
Twelve springs (The Holy Spirit who is the bride)
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, God opens our mind so that we will know the secrets of the words of the Bible and we see that it is done in the midst of those whose souls are revived. Also, our forefathers because they did not have this reviving of the soul, though they ate manna in the wilderness they died. But we, to live forever, the bread which came down from heaven, Our Lord Jesus Christ; he gave his flesh and blood to eat and he gives grace and makes us to live forever.
Also, day before yesterday we read that Israel, the church came to Elim. There were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees In Elim. When we meditate about this, Elim was a place with twelve wells of water. This is showed as a pattern of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the temple of God. In that temple of God there were twelve gates. Those gates had the glory of God. That is the bride which has attained the glory of God, The Holy Spirit. The twelve springs are showed as a pattern of this. We see that these twelve springs which have attained the glory of God are manifested as twelve stones. That is what in Revelation 21: 9 – 14 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.”
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.
Also, she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west.
Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
The Holy Spirit, who is the bride attains the glory of God and is Jerusalem which is the holy city. This has twelve precious stones (living spring). It has twelve gates (living word). There were twelve angels at the gates. Those angels were the fathers of the tribes of Israel. In every gate, the names of the twelve tribes (names) were written. Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations. And the foundations are the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ. On these foundations were the names of the twelve apostles - disciples of the Lamb written.
We must think how God is revealing, in the island of Patmos the kind of glory that The Holy Spirit attained.
This is because at that time Israel, the church camped in Elim. The twelve springs there are showed as a pattern by God to The Holy Spirit, the bride. Also, Israel the church camped in the springs. They drank the water. But in these days, in our soul because God has sent the resurrected Christ, the Holy Spirit who is the bride flows from our soul as the living spring which gives twelve types of fruits.
For this only, Lord Jesus Christ chose twelve disciples. Also, we must know that he made them sit for a meal and made them take twelve baskets full of leftovers of bread and fish. He is doing all these things to put the foundation for the holy city.
Christ, who is filled and has overcome all the above-mentioned experiences comes down from heaven as the Holy Spirit, as the bride and comes into our soul.
That is what in Revelation 22: 1 – 3 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.
My dear people, the twelve springs in Elim is showed as a pattern to the holy city. If God blesses us this city, the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be established in it. If such a throne is established, twelve kinds of fruits will be there and no diseases shall stand in us. No curse shall follow us. Let all of us submit to such a kind of blessing.
Let us pray.
May the Lord bless you all.
