Water metaphor:
Drink of One Spirit:
1 Corinthians 12:13
13
For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks,
whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.
There is not one Holy Spirit for the
Jews and another for the Gentiles. There is only one Spirit and we have all
drunk from Him. We are to preserve the unity of the Holy Spirit, not try to
create it. Unity is supernaturally natural when the Holy Spirit is involved.
Water is just one of the ways the Spirit is depicted. We are refreshed when we
drink of water; so we are refreshed when we drink from the Water of the Spirit.
He becomes a river of living water flowing from within us.
If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what
He would say:
"Come
to Me you thirsty ones and drink of My Spirit; for He is refreshing and will
renew you to My completeness. Do not fear Him; for He will bring you into My
presence. He will guide you into all the Truth; for He is the Truth. He will
show you the way into My blessedness. He will show you the way into My
blessings; for I will give unto Him to give unto you. You will never thirst
again; for you will be satisfied and will give unto the Nations for Me through
Him.”
46.
I have drunk of the One Spirit in unity with my fellow believers, whether they
are from the Jews or the Gentiles.
