“…If a man is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me …streams of living water will flow from within him.” (John 7:37-38)
Wonderful feast, wonderful gift (v.37-44):
1. Feast of Tabernacles – in remembrance of life as sojourneyers (Lev 23:40-43) – in this festival people left their homes & lived in tents (like those suffered from earthquake). The straw cover of their tents were made sparse that people inside can gaze the starry night, that every house should remember the blessings from on high !
2. Living stream – water & blood flowed from Jesus on cross (Jn 19:34) – from then He gave us life & Spirit, giving us true meaning of life!
Scripture of the day: John 7:30-52 (New International Version)
