5.b.9 - Push Through To The River Of Living Waters

 Push 5.b.9 - Push Through To The River Of Living Waters

It is written of how Ezekiel, in vision, is being brought through the waters to the ankles, knees and waist [Ezekiel 47:3-4]. The man with the measuring line in his hand appears to be the same one who is helping Ezekiel push through the waters. The word used here for "he brought me through", is the Hebrew word abar [#5674], which means "to cross over", as if "to cross over a river or stream". This is the same root word as the word for "Hebrews", that is a people who have crossed over, as in the crossing over the Jordan in order to enter the promised land.

As concerning the depth of the waters, this does not seem to be the most important thing. It is more important, for the waters to be flowing and moving, so they will not become stagnant. Because the stagnant waters were given over to salt and could not be healed [Ezekiel 47:11]. However, it is apparent that the measures of water are given in greater measure each time, in order to lead us all individually and collectively to the river of Living Waters.

It was a great effort for Ezekiel to push through the waters unto the greater depth; just as it was a great effort for the apostles to tarry for the Holy Spirit [Luke 24:49]; just as it takes great patience to wait for the promise of the Father [Acts 1:4].

Yet, the days of coming to the altar of prayer and repentance, and waiting and tarrying all night for a move of the Holy Spirit, are over. Now we are told that we should not come and kneel at the altar anymore, rather, we should come and stand and offer thanksgiving and praise and forget about repentance and confession. 

The spiritual thermometers of these preachers are broken; they cannot discern the seriousness of the sins which have swept over our nation and churches. They have not seen the need for weeping and crying out to Yah Yeshua at an altar of repentance. They have not been able to discern that it is essential for the church to tarry for a renewing of the Holy Spirit.

Why must we travail for Yehowah's River? Because only when we are in the River do we know His Name. Any spirit can say "Jesus is Lord" on the banks. Only in the River do you confess "Master Yah is Yeshua to the glory of Yehowah."

If we, as a church, push through all night, yet the waters are still only to the ankles, then for what reason would we shout and dance in victory?

[Note: How do we push? We push with an instrument. In Hebrew Oz means both strength and an instrument of praise - the Name Yah Yehowah itself. I have detailed this in 3 short teachings, see Addendum at end of this chapter.]

Isn't it more in order, to push through some more with weeping and crying and travailing in the Spirit, until we at least get to the depth of the knees? Yet, when we reach the depth of the knees, is this now the time for dancing in the Spirit and running around the church? Or, is it time to pray and intercede some more until the waters are unto the waist?

I realize that by the time we as a church have prayed in the Spirit unto the depth of the waist, that each individual is physically tired and worn out in the flesh. Yet in the Spirit we desire to dance and in the Spirit we desire to run and render thanksgiving and praise as is proper unto Yah our Elohym, Yehowah.

But, if we stop now, not pushing through some more, we will never come unto the river of Living Waters, which no mortal man can push through. Why is it so important to push through unto this place? Because, the Living Waters must make a complete circuit in order to be healed, as it is written:

These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: Which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed. And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh. Ezekiel 47:8-9

The HEALINGS do not begin en masse, until they come unto the RIVER to be HEALED, which means that the church must push through so that it can bring souls unto this RIVER OF LIVING WATERS. Howbeit, if we don't push through, our own souls may also become desolate, as it is written:

But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt. Ezekiel 47:11

In the spiritual sense, the River of Living Waters must travel in circuit from Yah Yeshua, unto Paradise and the four corners of the earth, then back into the "Sea", and then from there, back into heaven. [NOTE: Right below heaven is a place called: "Paradise", "Eden", "Abraham's Bosom", "The Sea", "The Waters"]. The waters must be allowed to flow unhindered by the love of the world, the lust of the flesh or the pride of life. But to get those hindrances out of the way, the church must travail in the Spirit and tarry for a renewing of the LIVING WATERS with tears of repentance and confession.

salt = false worship / harlot system or anything which prevents the flowing of the River through our lives

If we are satisfied with where we are at, while the world is spiraling out of control all around us, then perhaps the word of Yehowah has not even been planted into our hearts, and if it has, perhaps there was no depth of earth.

If the urgency of the great sins in the United States and in the church is not enough to cause us as a people to push through the waters, then what will it take? If we want to be spared from destruction, if we want our families to be spared, we will do as the righteous men remaining in Jerusalem did; for they prayed and cried out to Yehowah because of all the abominations they saw being done in their Temple and in their city, as it is written:

And Yehowah said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that SIGH and that CRY for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof. Ezekiel 9:4

If we are to be spared, we must not only sigh and cry out in prayer concerning the sins of our once great nation, but we also must push through in the Spirit, until we reach the depth of the RIVER OF LIVING WATERS, so we can bring healing and deliverance to multitudes.

However, as we are delving deeper into the Spirit, it will be a mistake if we neglect and fail to appreciate the importance of the NAME in this end times revival. Why is the name so important? Because any unclean spirit can proclaim that Jesus is Lord. However, only a man filled with the Holy Spirit and armed with the fullness of the truth, can proclaim that the Master Yah is Yeshua, as 1 Corinthians 12:3 reads in the Original New Testament, the Aramaic Peshitta.

BASED UPON THIS SOLID FOUNDATION, PAUL GOES ON TO EXPLAIN MORE ABOUT THE ESSENTIAL NATURE OF ELOHYM:

For there are a diversification of gifts, but the SPIRIT is ONE. 1 Corinthians 12:4 Aramaic Peshitta - The Holy Spirit itself is a gift unto all sincere believers, but in this context, these are gifts which spring up from the Holy Spirit, which differ in nature, one from another, But Paul's point is clear, though, many gifts differ, they all derive from ONE SPIRIT. And the revealed name of the Holy Spirit is Yah Yehowah!

And there are a diversification of services, but the Lord YAH is ONE. 1 Corinthians 12:5 Aramaic

As already revealed above, the Master Yah is Yeshua, and HE came to this earth to be a servant... even if my anointing for service differs from yours, the giver of that anointing, that is the Master YAH, is ONE.

And there is a diversification of Power, but Yehowah is ONE, who works all in all men. 1 Corinthians 12:6

Is there really three "ONES"? Or is Paul revealing that ultimately all the gifts and all the services proceed from Yehowah, who is all in all? Paul is also making reference to what the Jewish people call "The Shema", that is: 

Hear O Israel, Yehowah our Elohym is ONE Yehowah. Deuteronomy 6:4.

However, within Yehowah are the functions of "Father", "Son", and "Holy Spirit"! All three functions are simply different qnoma - occurrences of one singular divine Nature. There is only ONE person [being], and that is Yehowah.

For as the body is one, and in it are many members; and all those members of the body, though many, are one body; so also is the Messiah. 1 Corinthians 12:12

Yeshua is literally the arm of Yehowah [Exodus 6:6, Isaiah 53:1]. Thus the Messiah has many parts, but is only one person. For the Messiah Himself is simply the arm of Yehowah, and is thus, a part or portion of Yehowah.

The Aramean Church of the East believes that the Messiah has two qnomas, one human and the other divine. A qnoma is a occurrence of nature, and at one point the Messiah's nature appears human, and then at another time the Messiah's nature appears divine.

While Yehowah as Yah moves in the lives of His people who will or have sought after HIM, giving gifts unto them, while the Lord Yah Yeshua anoints His followers with the anointing and calling to serve. While Yehowah works the same in the lives of all mankind, the believers and the unbelievers...

For HE [Yah Yeshua] is to reign, until HE [Yehowah] will put all his enemies under his feet... And when all will be subjected to Him [Yah], then the Son [Yah] Himself will be subject to HIM [Yehowah] Who subjected all to Him [Yah], so that Elohym [Yehowah] will be all in all. 1 Corinthians 15:27-28

Yah is equal unto Yehowah, inasmuch as He is of the same substance, and is part of Yehowah, and went out from Yehowah. However, ultimately, even "the part" of Yehowah, will subject Himself to the whole. This is why Yah said: I can of mine own self do nothing. John 5:30

Yah came to this earth to lead His people unto the Father [Yehowah]. Because it is not the will of Yehowah for His people to know HIM only partially, but HE desires for His people to know Him fully.

A portion of Living Water will lead us unto a greater portion of Living Water, which will lead us unto a still greater measure of the Living Waters, which if we continue therein, will lead us unto the RIVER OF LIVING WATERS, which is Yah Yehowah. In this place there will be many healings and much deliverance of every kind. Yet, even the RIVER OF LIVING WATERS is not an end all, because it leads unto the "Sea", which heals the waters. Thus Yehowah is all in all. This is why it is written:

And Yehowah shall be King over all the earth: in that day shall there be ONE Yehowah, and his name ONE. Zechariah 14:9

In this chapter I have exhorted you to push through to the River. I have not detailed here how the Name functions as the instrument that pulls you from ankle to knee to waist to River. That teaching is too detailed to include here without breaking the flow of travail. For those who want to understand the instrument, I have divided it into three short blog teachings:
