Rev 21:6

'And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.' [KJV]

The water of life is referred to as the well of salvation (see Is12:3). That is, salvation is impossible without this. This same water of life was referred to as eternal life by Jesus. John 4:14 - But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

This same water of life was referred to as the Holy Ghost. (see Joh 7:38-39)

It is evident from the scriptures above, that the Spirit of God is the water of life producing eternal life in us. The day we believed and accepted Christ Jesus into our hearts, a measure of the Holy Spirit was given to us which produced eternal life in us. (The God-kind of life)

The measure of the life of God in us is proportional to the measure of the Holy Spirit in us. As the life of a man is in his spirit, so also the life of God in you comes through His Spirit in you. The good news is we can daily increase the measure of the life of God in us by being filled with the Holy Spirit daily.

Go into today knowing that we can be filled with the Holy Spirit everyday of our lives as long as we keep asking and yielding (READ Luke 11:13).

Eph 5:18: And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit.

Prayer: Father, I thank you for Your promise of the Holy Spirit to me. I ask that You fill me today with a greater measure of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus name. Amen.
