The LORD was speaking to me about empty wells & cisterns:
"My people have committed two evils; they have forsaken Me, The fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water."
Jeremiah 2:13
A cistern filled with water is a source of life, refreshment and revival, but a cistern without water becomes a pit and a prison (i.e. Joseph and Jeremiah).
Any "structure" filled with the Spirit can bring life and wholeness, but that same structure without the Spirit will become a prison.
Then I heard the Spirit Saying:
There are many structures that I have filled with my presence in the past. That was a season and a time, but I am not resting in the structures of man. Because I visited those pits and filled them with my presence you thought the pit was the focus -
Did I not tell you that you are to be like the wind? Where it comes from and where it goes no one knows but the Spirit that directs it. Did I not tell you that My living waters come from within you? You are the source of My river in this world, not the structures and religions of man.
Did I tell you to submit to a man or the religious structures of man? If you think that I did you have been deceived.
You have thought that I was altogether like you - but you are wrong. I am not like you and you have a few short days to humble yourself before Me to correct yourself before My correction begins.
For My sons and daughters that have sought My face and have bore the rejection, judgement, and anger of those that call themselves My leaders (but are not - for they lead people to themselves and not to Me), I am about to reward you.
Come out of the prisons of the empty structures that do not have my presence.
Those that seek Me find Me and they will be led and directed by Me. They will not submit to man or the religious structures of man, for they are submitted to Me. They hear My voice and they do not listen to the voice of any other. Those that obey Me submit themselves to one another for the sake of love and service to those that are submitted to Me. They do so for love and they do so in righteous fear of Me. My sheep hear My voice!
Come out of these empty, broken cisterns My people. Come to the Fountain of Living Waters. Come to the River.
"As for you also, because of the blood of My covenant with you, I have set your prisoners free from the cistern in which there is no water. Return to the Stronghold, O prisoners of hope; this very day I am declaring that I will restore double to you. For I will bend Judah as My bow, I will fill the bow with Ephraim.. And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece; and I will make you like a warriors sword."

Luke I'd posted this in another section but after I read your words that have truly come from Dad I wanted to share it on your post. This morning I woke with a prophetic song of worship and prayer in my spirit that came from Psalm 19:14. And then as I began to read different posts praise began to come forth and I began to hear this song (inspired by the Holy Ghost): Bless you brother! ------------- Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Ps 51:10 |

Luke I don't know if Dad every gave you the Habakkuk 2 mandate but I want to tell you that you are definitely anointed to write the vision and make it plain. Bro it's so simple that even a little child can understand it. That's something Dad was stressing this year. Make it plain. God's word is very simple in its application but when it's not understood it can't be applied correctly. Keep on moving with HG because Dad is pleased. Thank you!!! ------------- Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Ps 51:10 |

Beautiful word, Luke.
It is funny how God has been giving so many thoughts to different people that flow in the same vein. I was thinking of the cisterns and "deep wells" last night, and the scripture popped into my mind, "They have refused the gently flowing waters of Shiloah." |

Thank you Kimberly!:) found this community quite recently and have
been so blessed. It is funny how Father is teaching so many of us, in different places the same thing. It is such a joy to hear someone else share exactly what you have been hearing. |

SINK DEEP MY WELLS Sink deep my wells my children Sink them deep with worship and prayer Sink deep my wells ready to be filled with living water Sink deep my wells So that those who are thirsty may come to drink Sink deep my wells my children So that they may drink of me So that they will pour out my living water To all who are thirsty There are many who don’t know why they are thirsty Or what they are thirsty for Sink deep my wells and I will draw them To those places where My children are worshipping me in spirit and in truth Sink deep my wells where they can come and drink to quench their thirst For only I can give them water that will satisfy them Sink deep my wells precious ones ------------- Love and Blessings! |
