Rhapsody of Realities 13 September 2026: We Never Run Dry
SCRIPTURE: He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water (John 7:38).
Someone once said that when you’re working very hard for the Lord, serving Him, doing things for Him, it’s like burning fuel. You’d need to be careful so you don’t burn out. So, from time to time, you need to replenish. That’s sense knowledge. It sounds nice but that’s not what the Scripture says.
The Bible specifically tells us in 2 Corinthians 4:16 that we don’t burn out; rather, our strength is renewed day by day: “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.” As you minister, it makes no difference how much virtue flows out of you; you’re constantly revitalized by the Holy Ghost!
Consider the Lord Jesus; when the woman with the issue of blood touched Him and He said, “…I perceive that virtue is gone out of me” (Luke 8:46), He wasn’t saying He had become deficient in power or short of virtue. The Master was filled with the Spirit, the very source of virtue that never runs dry. This is your reality in Christ Jesus having received the Holy Spirit.
Recall the words of the Master in John 7:38, “He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” Notice He said rivers not trickles, not a limited supply, but rivers! That means constant flow, continual outpouring, an unending supply. The flow of the Spirit in you never runs dry.
That’s God’s plan for your life. He never intended for you to live full today and empty tomorrow. He wants you to live continually filled with the Spirit, morning, noon and night, no matter where you are or what situation you find yourself in. If this weren’t possible, the Word wouldn’t instruct us to live that way.
Be conscious of this today. Be mindful that every word you speak and every action you take proceed from the Holy Spirit working in and through you. The Lord Jesus said, “…the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). That’s your life as well. Your words convey life, grace, wisdom, and power; they’re potent with grace and righteousness. The rivers of living water flow continually from within you. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the ever-flowing presence and ministry of the Holy Spirit in my life. The rivers of living water flow continually from my spirit, bringing life, wisdom, strength, and transformation everywhere. I live continually filled with the Spirit, and my words minister grace and righteousness to all my hearers today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
