washing with word💧

the same water splashing as Jesus came up from his baptism is in the earth today.

the same water Naaman washed in and was healed is today a fountain still rushing. the same water parted in the Red Sea when God delivered His people from the Egyptians lives now. the water that carried Noah and his family in the ark, the water that Rebekah watered the camels with, the water Jesus washed his disciples’ feet with, the water that gushed from our Saviour’s side… still flows here—covering ocean beds, flooding river basins, flushing toilet bowls, dewing fields and watering gardens, raining plant food and washing our sins white.

about 71% of the earth is water!

our bodies are somewhere from 60-70% water (it varies person to person). of all people, newborns have the most water percentage wise (78%). this is no surprise as babies are fresh from Heaven!

the US Geological Survey says that the brain and heart are composed of 73% water, and the lungs are about 83% water. the skin contains 64% water, muscles and kidneys are 79%, and even the bones are watery: 31%.

water is essential to life

it’s a vital nutrient to the life of every cell, acts first as a building material.
water regulates our internal body temperature through sweating and respiration
carbohydrates and proteins which our bodies use for food are metabolized and transported by water in the bloodstream;
this liquid assists in flushing waste mostly through urination
it acts as shock absorber for brain, spinal cord, and fetus
water creates saliva
water lubricates joints

without water we perish.

in the Bible we see it was already created:

The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God… 2 Peter 3:5

what is this beautiful mystery we call water?

Dr. Masaru Emoto, a Japanese scientist, studied how the molecular structure in water transforms when exposed to human words, thoughts, sounds and intentions. his findings point us to Jesus.

Emoto exposed water to certain words then photographed the molecules to show the word’s effect on the water:

as you can see, water is literally changed and transformed based on word. the same water from which God spoke and all things came to be, can still today be impacted by Word.

if our bodies are mostly water, what word is shaping the water of you? are your water building blocks jagged and asymmetrical and broken? or are they symmetrical snowflake mirrors, eloquent and soft, beautiful and sweet?

whose word are you receiving? God’s good word of Love or satan’s lie of evil?

the beauty of this study is that water can change. we are made of water; we can change! or rather we can allow the Word of Heaven to shape us! the Bible calls this repentance, a wild and wonderful gift.

when our hearts are fertile soil for the Word of God to make His home, when we receive what God says, allowing His Voice to shape and create anew in us, everything changes!

…the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
Habakkuk 2:14

let the tears you’ve wept lead you to every drop of Christ’s blood and all the grace downpour raining from Heaven higher than here! there is a River. His Name is Jesus. He waits to wash you with Himself, the blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel! will you let Him wash you? all your jagged jarring spikes and broken gashes of pieces and places can be made beautiful. just let Him have you. let His eternal water touch your rivers and oceans, and all your elbows and memories will become new like when He spoke everything into existence at Day One. reborn! FreshWATER. a fountain wellspring exploding from your heart where the King Himself rests enthroned in the storeroom of snow, dew, rain, love inside you just waiting to water the world around you!

Whoever drinks of the water I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.
John 4:14
