“Tree By the River”

“Tree By the River”

Blessings folk!

Fruit!

The Word says much about it.

This is a really interesting passage.

Do not “worry about” trying to “understand it all”.

Just read.

Give close attention to the situation and action.

Watch for the fruit.

Eze 47:1-12

Then he brought me back to the door of the house; and behold, water was flowing from under the threshold of the house toward the east, for the house faced east. And the water was flowing down from under, from the right side of the house, from south of the altar.

He brought me out by way of the north gate and led me around on the outside to the outer gate by way of the gate that faces east. And behold, water was trickling from the south side.

When the man went out toward the east with a line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he led me through the water, water reaching the ankles.

Again he measured a thousand and led me through the water, water reaching the knees.
Again he measured a thousand and led me through the water, water reaching the loins.

Again he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not ford, for the water had risen, enough water to swim in, a river that could not be forded.

He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?”
Then he brought me back to the bank of the river.

Now when I had returned, behold,
on the bank of the river there were very many trees on the one side and on the other.

Then he said to me,
“These waters go out toward the eastern region and go down into the Arabah; then they go toward the sea, being made to flow into the sea, and the waters of the sea become fresh.

“It will come about that every living creature which swarms in every place where the river goes, will live. And there will be very many fish, for these waters go there and the others become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes.

“And it will come about that fishermen will stand beside it;
from Engedi to Eneglaim there will be a place for the spreading of nets.
Their fish will be according to their kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea, very many.

“But its swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.

“By the river on its bank, on one side and on the other, will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither and their fruit will not fail. They will bear every month because their water flows from the sanctuary, and their fruit will be for food and their leaves for healing.”

“It will come about…”.
Yet to come.
Still.
In the future.
Trees will bear every month because their water flows from the sanctuary.
Wow!
The fruit of the trees will be for food.
The leaves of the tress for healing.

Now, read this…

Rev 22:1-2

Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb,

in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

Hummm….
