THE RIVER OF LIFE, AND THE TREE OF LIFE

The news we having been hearing is not very uplifting. We are reading or wars and rumors of wars. We are also still under the treat of making the shot against COVID 19 obligatory. We are experiencing a decadence of or our freedom. This nation is going down hill, to say the least. What do we have that give us some good news? I have been finishing another book called “The Risen Mashiach” and I speak about this river of life and the tree with the healing leaves! Maybe you have read the Scriptures that Yehovah has something prepared for us to makes whole. We do not have to obey Satan and drink blood, which Yehovah has definitely forbidden for us to do. We are forbidden to drink any kind of blood! We are not animals!

“Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, who hunts and catches any animal or bird that may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust; for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood sustains its life. Therefore I said to the children of Israel, ‘You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.’”

Wayyiqra/Leviticus 17:13-14

Yehovah, our Creator, forbids us from drinking blood. We cannot disobey Him thinking we have a better way than he has. If we disobey Him, we will suffer the natural and eternal consequences! Do not play with fire for you will be burned!

Today I want to share about the river of life, and the tree of life.

First we will read of the river that comes from the throne.

Then he brought me back to the door of the temple; and there was water, flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the front of the temple faced east; the water was flowing from under the right side of the temple, south of the altar. He brought me out by way of the north gate, and led me around on the outside to the outer gateway that faces east; and there was water, running out on the right side. 12 Along the band of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.”

Yechezqel/Ezekiel 47:1-2; 12

And now we will read from the book of Revelation.

And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of Yehovah and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of Yehovah and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They need not lamp nor light of the sun, for Yehovah Elohim gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.

Chazon/Revelation 22:1-5

Yehovah gave the vision of the river to Ezekiel and then He show it to the apostle Yochanan/John when he received the Revelation of things to come. It is the same river. In heaven there is a river that comes from the very throne of Yehovah!

I believe that we will be immersed in the river to give us more strength in our heavenly bodies. It is possible that we may still have some residue of bad memories, and they will be washed away in the river.

Possibly, I do not say, “Thus says Yehovah,” the water may represent the Ruach HaQodesh/Holy Spirit, and the Word, which will in sense remove any guilt we may still feel for not serving Him much better when were alive.

Those people who get saved on the last minutes of their lives, they will probably feel so bad that they did nothing at all while alive to honor Yehovah. I believe they will be cleansed from that guilt.

Can you imagine how you would feel if when you were alive people shared the gospel with you, but you rejected it? However, just at the time of your passing you said yes, to Yehoshua? How do you think you may feel when you see the greatness of heaven? You would feel guilty for sure! The River, I believe, will remove all of those feelings which do not belong in heaven.

You do better to say yes to Yehoshua now, and live for Him, who will reward for your works when you go to heaven, for each one of us will be rewarded for the good we do for His kingdom.

The leaves are for the healing of the nations. What does it mean to you? Any ideas?

I think that the river already has removed all divisions on our soul. But now the leaves will release healing.

Just today I heard the news that a man who killed a black person finally pleads guilty. He may come out with a total of five years of prison. Do you thing the life of a human being is only worth a few years of prison? Yehovah said, if you kill, you will die. Even for blaspheming the name of Yehovah they were stoned to death. Life is sacred. Only Yehovah has the right to take a life, for He is the Creator of that life.

Yes, Yehovah forgives us when we sin, even for killing our own baby in the womb, He forgives us when we repent to Him. The Blood of Yehoshua was shed for us to save us, and to redeem us from the curse.

However, if a person gets out of prison only after a few years, after has mercilessly killed another human being it is not right. Most likely he killed because the victim was of a different color, or for whatever reason, that person needs to be removed from society for a long time. This is justice.

One life has died an horrendous death, and the family has lost a family member because a person decided to murder him or her. Yehovah be merciful to this man. I pray he will truly repent before Yehovah and choose to serve Him with all his heart. This is my prayer. I pray Yehovah help him.

In the Scriptures we read that even if a person steals because he is hungry, he has to return seven times. There is a penalty for sin. This is the very reason Yehoshua had to die for our sins. And yes, Yehovah forgives us, but in this world we have to make restitution one way or another. We must be safe.

Presently all we need to do is to repent, believe and receive Yehoshua, to be saved, and if we die immediately we go to Heaven. But if a person had no time in this life to be convicted of his sin, then when he dies, the leaves will heal his soul from hostility against people of other color and from other nations.

I believe that the leaves will remove all trace of sin. All hostility will be taken away, and replace us with pure love.

This is only my thinking, I am not sure what really happens, but I will find out when I am there and partake of the leaves!

All we know for sure is that in heaven there is no hate between races, we are all children of Yehovah and we love one another.

And now what about the fruit? The trees are for our nourishment. We have fresh fruits every month, which means continually. I am very excited about this fact because I eat a lot of fruits. There we will eat the fruit of the tree of life, for we will live forever.

This tree of life was in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Chava (Eve) could have eaten of this tree instead of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. But they did not therefore we are in such a mess. However, in heaven we will be perfect and live forever, all of us who have decided to serve Him and be born again by His Spirit.

And in heaven with our resurrected bodies we will eat all kinds of food. We know this because Yehoshua ate after His resurrection. He ate broiled fish and honeycomb!

(See Luqas/Luke 24:41-42)

Rejoice and be glad, better days are coming when we go to heaven! For now, we live on day at the time fixing our eyes on eternity.
