“Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.”
Isaiah 12:3 KJV
On the final day of the feast of tabernacles, according to custom, the high priest would draw water from the pool of Siloam with a golden jar, mix the water with wine, and then pour it over the altar while the people would sing with great joy from the psalm and from this prophecy from Isaiah that with triumphant joy they will drink deeply from the wells of salvation. Jesus fulfilled this prophecy when in the last day, that great day of the feast, He stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come to Me, and drink. He that believes on Me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this He spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive: for the Holy Spirit was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.). Let’s be those believers of the glorious Christ, who are filled with the Holy Spirit and the love of God shed abroad in our heart by Him to love Him and to love one another. Amen!
