Where the River Goes

Ezekiel 46–48

“And every thing shall live whither the river cometh.”

Ezekiel 47:9 KJV

TODAY’S DEVOTION

The river in Ezekiel’s vision begins at the house of God and grows deeper as it moves outward. Wherever it goes, dead places live. The source is not human strength or careful image management. Life flows from the presence and purpose of God.

The Holy Ghost does not merely comfort us in private; He forms living witnesses who carry the life of Jesus into homes, churches, workplaces, and wounded places. Do not measure spiritual life only by what you feel near the altar. Ask what becomes healthier, truer, and more merciful wherever your surrendered life goes.
