11.2 Rivers Flowing Out

The chemical composition of water, H₂O, is unique and wondrous in innumerable ways. One of its qualities is that the electromagnetic frequency of water changes to fit the frequency of its environment. This is known as the homeopathic quality of water, that it will take on the frequencies of some other substance and then maintain those frequencies even as it moves into other places.

This truth applies directly to the Rivers of Spirit flowing out from us, that they carry the same knowledge of God that we possess together, out into all the avenues of power in the heavens as the heavens overshadow and give life to all. Think of these rivers as great ocean currents, carrying our confidence in Jesus out into that element in which all live.

A Required Negative. It is necessary, for a brief moment, to bring the negative back into our picture in order to comprehend how power works throughout the heavens as they interact with earth and world.

In Genesis 2, God gives us the picture of a river flowing out from Eden to water the four corners of the earth. In Romans 5, Paul describes sin and death flowing upon creation, including all humans, out from the authority given to Adam. But in Matthew 28, Jesus said that God had transferred the authority from Adam to Himself. Then, John saw a vision of the River of Life flowing out from the throne, that authority now given to Jesus, carrying life from the tree of life. We know from John 7 that these rivers of living water flow out from us as we eat and drink of Christ, God’s real Tree of Life.

Power through Authority. We conclude that God is giving us an understanding from this critical picture.

1. Because God transferred “Subdue” from Adam to Jesus, authority inside creation is given to those in whom Jesus dwells. Although it belongs to Jesus, yet it is in our hand because Jesus instructs us to ask and to believe.

2. Out from that authority, power flows through the heavens affecting everything created in heaven and earth. This flow is continuous, regardless.

3. The river flowing out carries inside of it either life to life or death to death. Life flows from those Christians who eat of the life of Jesus as them and death flows from those who eat of good versus evil, an in-part and broken “gospel.”

Death or Life. 4. The flow of death we see in the world cannot come from the unregenerate, for they no longer possess authority, whatever outward appearance might present.

5. Death is not natural to humans on this earth, it is an aberration coming out from the refusal to give thanks.

6. Death continues to prevail in this world because Christians refuse to believe the Gospel and push instead a “someday gospel” in order to continue refusing to give thanks.

7. As we believe that God is True, and as we partake of Jesus our only life, synergeoing with God to call all things into goodness, so the River of Life has begun to flow into the heavens and to prevail among humans, resulting in the Apocalypse, the cover removed.

Life Flows Out. It’s not by might – inward fortitude, nor by power – outward ability, but by My Spirit, says the Lord (Zechariah 4). As we walk in Resurrection Life, as the Spirit has shown us, in utter confidence that God hears and answers us, so Rivers of Spirit flow out from us affecting EVERYTHING.

Here, then, is where we place the homeopathic quality of water, that it carries the frequencies imparted to it out from its source, and it then imparts those same frequencies to whatever it touches.

8. The people of this world will know Love ONLY out from Christians loving one another, right here on this earth, right now in this age (John 17:21-23). Life flows into this world from our hearts filled with Jesus and from no other source.

Christ Community. “It’s not by might nor by power but by My Spirit.” Things will change in this world ONLY by the flowing of the Spirit of God out from believers in Jesus loving one another with pure hearts fervently.

Reciprocal love requires a daily environment of commitment to one another inside the liberty of the Spirit, that is, Christ Community, brethren dwelling together in unity. The Spirit of God flows out carrying the knowledge of God as reciprocal love ONLY out from real Christians loving one another through all. Christian Community, brethren dwelling together in Love, is the end goal of our Salvation and the only revelation of God. God is taking us to Church.

Christ Is All First. And then lawlessness will be unveiled which the Lord Jesus will eliminate with the breath of His mouth and will render inoperative by His presence made visible and known (1 Thessalonians 2:8). Christ Jesus is all first BEFORE anything not-Christ could ever vanish away. Rivers of Spirit flow freely first BEFORE any death disappears from the human experience. The Apocalypse, that is, the Unveiling, is the removal of blindness from human sight so that all things are seen as what they have always been. We do not need the Unveiling to see Jesus now, because we see and know Him through faith.

Two things move together, then, the Rivers of Spirit bringing the knowledge of God followed by casting down the accuser, who accuses our brethren falsely inside the presence of God.

Tangible and Real. The Glorious Salvation of God is tangible and real, and it fits into the history of humans on this earth in definitive ways. We are speaking of the Age of Tabernacles already begun, arising beneath of all and swallowing all up into the knowledge of God, the Age of God Tabernacling among us.

It is the Rivers of Living Water flowing out from our innermost beings together that cause the Age of God’s Patience to be swallowed up by the Age of God Among Us. Let’s recount exactly how that works. First, the channel of Life flowing out is specific. The Rivers begin with Christ Jesus inside our hearts flowing out into the Firstfruits of Christ, those who follow the Lamb together, then clothing the entire Church with the Lord Jesus, then causing the world to know Love.

Giving Thanks Begins All. The Flow of Living Spirit out from us is part of the movement of Grace, the life we share with God in every next step. Your own faith in Jesus affects everything and everyone else. Yet Grace is spoken twice, first upon each of us personally, and second upon our gathering together inside of Love. The two cannot be separated. The Life flowing out comes always from both together.

Giving thanks inside of and for the sake of all, giving thanks for the weakness of our human form, kept by God, giving thanks inside of all difficulty, synergeoing with God, that giving of thanks begins with each of us personally before moving out from us by the Spirit to impact everything else. When you give thanks inside of all loss, together with Father, you are changing the entire universe.

The Impact of Turning Around. Casting down the one who accuses God’s people and removing all demons and all false voices from the human experience, these things are simply the obvious outward results of something far greater inside of you.

When you embrace one unlimited Sacrifice for sins, an Absolute Atonement, already complete, you turn around. And being turned around by the Blood of the Lamb, you walk in the certain confidence that God now shares all with you. You have no idea of the IMPACT your every next step shared with the Father has on the realms of darkness. Demons flee in terror, they reach to stop you, but they are blown away. Kingdoms of darkness are breaking apart, losing their grip. – Because you believe in Jesus

God Is Coming Through! As you receive the Lord Jesus as the One who comes into union with you first, as you speak Christ your only Life, as you give yourself to the Father out from God having first given all of Himself to you, so you open the Door to all your Christian brethren, that they might know Jesus in the same way. And as you set forth your soul for their sakes, carrying them inside of Jesus carrying you, so the Spirit of God is moving upon the entire Church as RIVERS of the knowledge of God, clothing all with the Lord Jesus Christ. You open your door to God, and God is coming through!

Yet it is as we do these things together inside of Grace that the Age of Tabernacles truly begins, marked in time by our own physical bodies being swallowed up by LIFE.

The Age of Tabernacles. When the people of this world see our Love for one another inside of Grace, how is it that they will know that God has sent Jesus into the world? They will know because Rivers of Spirit are flowing out from us together, touching their hearts, removing impediments, opening their eyes, causing them to see and to acknowledge what is already the only thing True.

The Rivers begin with us as the Firstfruits of Christ, following the Lamb, just like Jesus. They then move upon the Church, a woman clothed with the Lord Jesus, bringing forth the knowledge of God into the knowledge of all. Then they flow from that Church into all the world as the arising of the Age of Tabernacles, God our Father seen and known by all.
