Channel God

Lake Ontario, Toronto


Day 40
My word goes forth through your life as you are walking with Me. It's not a matter of you straining your mind to recall and apply appropriate information; it's a matter of My Spirit flowing through you. A river flows directly from its source, and the channel never works to push it through. The channel must be (1) cleared of obstacles and (2) full of the water of the river. John 7:37-38: If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. Whoever believes in Me, as the scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.

Yes, there is much to be done. First comes the attitude of heart, then the commitment of will, then the faith to obey and the discipline to step forward--faithfully. I give the faith, and you step out in faithfulness, which is obedience to my word, born of my Spirit. It is a wellspring of life.

I have designed you to work in this way. It will never be too much for you. If it seems to much, you are out of faith in some form, and you must seek Me purely.

Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life. Put away from you a deceitful mouth and put devious speech far from you. Let your eyes look directly ahead and let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you. Watch the path of your feet and all your ways will be established. Do no turn to the right or the left; turn your foot from evil [Proverbs 4:23-27].

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God [Matthew 5:8.
