Yesterday God gave me a vision where I saw water being poured from a glass. In past visions this has represented being "poured out" for the good of others. But this time, there was another element added to the message. I saw that the water was being poured out along a path, forming a pathway.
I realized that He was showing me His will for me. He was teaching me the way I should go (Psalms 32:8). This path was designed to bring me to my spiritual inheritance--which is abundant life, everlasting life. It is rivers of living water, found firstly within us, and then within the city of God.
"There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High." Psalm 46:4
In the meantime, though, He is pouring out streams of water step by step (Isaiah 41:18). These streams lead us onto the fulfillment of all the blessings we first received. They lead us on towards Zion's river, towards Heaven itself. He is faithful to guide us there!
The water poured out is the Spirit. The water distributes itself and widens once poured out, because where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17). There is so much freedom found in walking with God and going where He wants you to go. The feeling of pleasing Him awakens us to the freedom that He gives us. Like Bill Johnson says, the Kingdom of Heaven is bigger on the inside than it appears from the outside.
So I saw from the vision that He's taking me towards my destiny. He's pouring out a path, which I can then follow by the Spirit. He's equipping me with every spiritual blessing along the way!
"And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God." Deuteronomy 28:2
When you're on that path, that well-watered path, you can't help but pour out abundance to others. We give because He first gave to us. And God is always enough. You can't help but overflow with the Spirit and impact others with the Love of God. You can't help but be bold for Him. This is where God wants to take us--not to physical abundance, but to spiritual overflow.
