RIVER OF LIFE FROM THE MOTHER CITY

Galatians 4:22-26  For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.  (23)  But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.  (24)  Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.  (25)  For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.  (26)  But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
 
 
Hebrews 12:22  But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
 
 
Hebrews 13:14  For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
 


Between His time on the Mount of Olives talking about the temple destruction, and ascending into heaven from the same mountain, HE WAS CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED.
 
He then went to the REAL TEMPLE IN HEAVEN, to the RIGHT HAND THRONE.
 
Hebrews 9:24  For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

The temple WAS GOD’S WILL IN HEAVEN BEING DONE IN EARTH.
 
The events with the glory in Ezekiel after it left the Mount of Olives into Heaven, correspond to the DAY OF PENTECOST.
 
After the glory left the temple in Ezekiel 11, it returned to

Jerusalem into the TEMPLE and POURED OUT A RIVER.
 
Ezekiel 43:1-5  Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:  (2)  And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.  (3)  And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.  (4)  And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.  (5)  So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
 
His voice sounded like waters!
* And that voice like waters goes into the temple.
 
Revelation 1:15  And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
 
* Rev 4:15 even identifies Him as the one in Ezekiel 1, with legs of fire.
 
Revelation 14:2  And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:

And we later read WATERS ISSUE FORTH!
 
But instead of JESUS going back to Jerusalem into the TEMPLE, HE COMES IN HIS HOLY SPIRIT INTO THE TEMPLES OF THE HOLY GHOST, THE CHURCH, ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST!!

The wings of the cherubims sounded like many waters.
* Then WATERS POUR OUT!
 
It’s like the VOICE OF WATERS stands for the WORD OF GOD ABOUT THE THINGS OF THE SPIRIT. * Jesus’ voice sound like many waters when He spoke to them to wait for the PROMISE OF THE SPIRIT. * When someone talks about the HOLY SPIRIT it’s like they have the VOICE OF MANY WATERS!
 
Ezekiel 1:24  And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
 
Ezekiel 47:1  Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.
 
So the THRONE goes into the LIVES OF PEOPLE WHO ARE NOW THE TEMPLES OF THE HOLY SPIRIT!
 
THE RIVER FLOWED OUT! Just as we read Jesus went to the right hand throne and SHED FORTH or POURED OUT THE SPIRIT OF GOD like RIVERS OF LIVING WATER.

Acts 2:18  And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out (WATER) in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
 
Acts 2:33-34  Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth (WATER) this, which ye now see and hear.  (34)  For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
 
Look where the throne was in Revelation.

 Revelation 4:2-3  And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.  (3)  And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. INSIDE A RAINBOW!
 
Revelation 4:6  And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
 
So this sea of glass before the throne with a rainbow around the throne looks a lot like the first time a rainbow was mentioned, ON MOUNT ARARAT WHEN THE ARK FLOATED ACROSS THE FLOOD AND LANDED AT THE MOUNTAIN WHERE A RAINBOW SHONE AFTER THE STORM.
 
Genesis 9:12-13  And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  (13)  I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
 
THE NEW COVENANT WAS established when JESUS WENT TO THE THRONE WITH THE RAINBOW!

 Revelation 5:7  And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
 
Like he walked on water (across “sea” of glass) to the throne with the rainbow, as the ark floated to the mountain with a rainbow, A STORM JUST PASSED!
 
As the flood washed away the wickedness, HE WASHED AWAY OUR SINS THE STORM OF THE WORK OF THE CROSS!!

And from that throne in Heaven, the right hand, THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS POURED OUT LIKE A RIVER and gave POWER TO THE CHURCH. * That’s the day the CHURCH was born. * NEW CREATURES.

And when Jesus went to that throne to see all enemies put under his feet, like the ark resting on ARARAT, THE CURSE WAS REVERSED.
 
All the curses that came after Adam lost the kingdom and was cast from the Garden was REVERSED for the believers!
* The HOLY SPIRIT is a CURSE REVERSING POWER!
* It came from the throne where the GREEN RAINBOW OF LIFE WAS!
* And the POWER of the HOLY SPIRIT will work in your lives to reverse any curse that’s there. As Peter said the SPIRIT was POURED OUT because Jesus went to the throne, Rev 22 says a RIVER OF LIFE poured from the throne of GOD AND THE LAMB WHO JUST SAT THERE, and we read of tree of life with leaves and fruit.

 Revelation 22:1-2  And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.  (2)  In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
 
And to understand why Ezekiel sees it come from the temple and John sees it from GOD AND THE LAMB, read this explanation:
 
Revelation 21:22 KJV  And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
 
 Revelation 22:17  And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
 
We can come if we’re thirsty.
 
What did Jesus say about coming when we’re thirsty?
 
John 7:37-39  In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.  (38)  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.  (39)  (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
 
But you have to learn to WALK IN THE SPIRIT! * WALK IN THE RIVER OF LIFE!
 
“The curse is reversed.” ARARAT
* Adam left the Kingdom and left the river of life and tree of life.
* Jesus is new Adam.
* Reverses the picture.
* Goes to the throne by cherubims and four beasts that blocked Adam out.
* A green rainbow of life is there.
* He sits on the throne and pours out the river of SPIRIT KINGDOM POWER.
* Makes saints kings and priests.

It reverses curses in your life.
* Anything from the fall of Adam in your life. At the END OF EZEKIEL… like END OF REVELATION:
 
Ezekiel 47:3-5  And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.  (4)  Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.  (5)  Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.
 
Ankles, knees, loins.
 
Psalms BEGINS where Ezekiel and Revelation END.

 Psalms 1:1-3  Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.  (2)  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  (3)  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
 
WALK with Ankles  STAND with knees SIT with loins
 
Let Spirit river touch all these parts of your life and the CURSES of ungodly counsel, way of sinners, seat of scornful will be destroyed in your life.
* You will be like a tree planted by water.
* Leaves and fruit.
* Leaves heal and fruit feeds.
 
The SEED in the fruit of life reproduces that FRUIT after its kind.
 
The seed is the WORD OF GOD going into the GOOD SOIL OF A GOOD HEART. * The Holy Spirit is the power of the KINGDOM and is a CURSE REVERSING power!----

 Acts 1:8  But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
 
Power is the promise of the FATHER – it’s the HOLY GHOST.

 Acts 1:4-5  And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.  (5)  For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. On the day of Pentecost,

 Peter told the listeners they got the power from Jesus’ enthronement.
 
Acts 2:30-33  Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;  (31)  He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.  (32)  This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.  (33)  Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
 
What was POURED OUT and SHED FORTH was the SPIRIT.
The glory went to the GATE of the Temple.
 
The FLOODS that destroyed man in Noah’s day would never destroy again.  
 
CURSE IS REVERSED.
 
The floods this time would SAVE MAN and wash away curses from man.
 
God would not CURSE THE EARTH any more, BUT WASH AWAY CURSES in the curse-reversing FLOODS of the Holy Ghost!
 
From his throne – FROM HIS POWER!
