Title: Get Regeneration (Ezekiel 47:6-12)
The world we live in operates on the principle of circulation.
In science, this is called creation and destruction.
It is the law of the universe that it seems to be non-existent, appears to be re-emerging, and then disappears.
That is why they say that life is also a life of a spinning water wheel.
What are we leaving behind in the life we carry around?
What meaning do you want to keep in the life of a short-lived traveler?
Would you like to leave a splendid fragrance in your life, like a flower that blooms for a while and withers?
Would you like to leave a poem in a life like a mist that stays for a while and then disappears?
What kind of traces do you want to leave while living in a time of no return, like flowing water?
God wants us to live in His image because we are made in His image.
(Genesis 1:27) God created man in his own image, in the image of God, he created man and woman.
take care
God made us and loved us very much, so may we live exceedingly good in God's sight.
you want
(Genesis 1:31) And God saw all that he had made, and behold, it was very good.
We are blessed because God created us humans, blessed us, and told us to multiply and be full.
They must live, prosper and be full.
This is God's blessing and promise.
God brought something out of nothing and brought disorder into order and darkness into light.
Therefore, we too must live a life of light and a life of vitality.
Today's reading tells us how to live a life of vitality.
We want to share grace and peace together.
1. We must go along the river of grace.
A thirsty life, a thirsty life, and a stuffy and clingy life require cool water of life.
The reason why the world's cities are being built along rivers is because of the abundance of resources and nature.
is.
However, the Christian's water of life flows through the temple.
The word of God flowing from the temple is the water of life.
The temple of God is a river of grace flowing with the water of life.
So we must come out to the river of grace.
(Ezekiel 47:1) And he brought me to the gate of the temple, and the front of the temple was facing east, and under the threshold
The water came out from the west and flowed to the east, and flowed down to the right side of the altar husband.
Where are we going now?
Are you on your way to the world?
Are you not raising your head toward self-gratification and self-greed?
We must return to the river of grace with the guidance of God and the help of the Holy Spirit.
(Ezekiel 47:6) And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen this? And he led me to the river.
to bring you back
(Ezekiel 47:7) When I returned, there were very many trees on either side of the river.
He said that when he returned to the river, there were a lot of trees on the left and right sides of the river.
There is life, there is prosperity, and there is fullness.
We should not waste our energy on insignificant things and trivial things.
You shouldn't waste time on arguments you don't need on things that aren't very important.
We have to come back to being productive, progressive and alive, and back there.
All.
God promises to bless us and bless us and multiply us and multiply us.
In order for us to receive blessings and prosper, we must come to the river of the water of life and the river of grace.
The seat of the Word, the seat of prayer, and the seat of worship are the riverside of grace.
Today, you and I are standing together by the river of grace.
2. You need to get plasticity in reality.
The reality in which we live is not so pure or smooth.
Not all of the land we live in is covered with loess soil.
Sometimes the earth trembles, bursts and cracks, and sometimes the sea turns violent and rough.
do.
Sometimes the sky is covered with black, and rain pours down, and the world is paralyzed in an instant.
No matter how good a product is, if it is left unused for a while, it becomes unsightly and the sea
The reality is that everything will corrode in an instant when the salty water of the city is flooded.
So Jesus wants us to be salt.
If salt loses its taste and function, it stops everything.
So we have to get plasticity in reality.
When we fire, everything flourishes and comes to life.
Even if reality is rough and dry land, even if reality is submerged in a salt sea, it must be fired.
The river water must purify the sea water.
The word of God can light a dark world with light.
Our worship in spirit and truth revives the bruised, sick and wounded souls.
(Ezekiel 47:8) ... The waters of the sea will be refreshed by this flowing water.
(Ezekiel 47:9) Wherever this river goes, every living creature that flourishes will live, and there will be very many fish.
The waters will flow in, and the sea will be healed, and everywhere the river flows
will live
No matter how difficult the world and reality are, as long as the river of God's grace flows and waters it, you will be healed.
It will survive and swim.
3. You must bear new fruits every month.
In the world we live in, if we just stay and stand still, our value will be lost.
is.
As mentioned before, it must be cycled and created.
Even if it is destroyed, it becomes more mature after a period of silence for the next new life to sprout
It will bear fruit.
Therefore, we must bear new fruit every day and every month.
The new fruit is good for life and for life.
(Psalm 23:2) He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside still waters.
(Psalm 23:3) He revives my soul and leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
God revives our souls and guides us in the path of righteousness
The word of God is our light and life, and a lamp that guides us in the path of righteousness.
(Psalm 119:105) Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
(Psalm 119:107) My afflictions are great; restore me, O LORD, according to your word.
Therefore, we must come to the river of grace, bear new fruit, be healed, and be healed.
We must not get caught up in the pearls and mudflats of life.
Pearls and mudflats are like swamps, the more you move, the more you fall into them, and eventually you will not be able to get out.
Thank you.
It cannot be burned, but becomes salt land and disappears.
(Ezekiel 47:11) The pearls and mudflats will not be burned and become a salt land.
Therefore, we must come out to the river of grace to bear new fruit every month.
Various kinds of edible fruit trees grow on the left and right sides of the river, and their leaves do not wither.
Its fruit is edible, and its leaves are used for medicinal purposes and are burned.
(Ezekiel 47:12) Various kinds of fruit trees grow on the left and right sides of the river, and their leaves do not wither and their fruits do not fail
and will bear new fruit every month, for the water is healed by the sanctuary.
The fruit will be edible, and the leaves will be medicine.
But the water comes from the sanctuary.
The sanctuary is the temple of God.
The sanctuary is the church of God, the word of God, and the grace of God.
So when you come out to the river of grace, you get plasticity in reality.
And it bears new fruits every month.
I pray that you will open a happy life by the grace of God.
