wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Revelation 7:17
READ
Revelation 7:15-17
Revelation 7:15 Therefore
are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple:
and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
Revelation 7:16 They
shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them,
nor any heat.
Revelation 7:17 For
the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead
them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from
their eyes.
MESSAGE
Apart from consuming stones, the fire that came down from heaven equally dried up the water poured on and around the sacrifice Elijah made on mount Carmel (1 Kings 18:38). Water here stands for tears and sorrow. One reason the Holy Spirit is called comforter is because He is a specialist at delivering comfort to those who are in sorrow or who are hurting. Revelation 7:17 says,
“For
the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead
them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from
their eyes.”
If you are a man or woman of the Spirit, He will
definitely use you to deliver comfort to those in need of it. The level of
comfort you are able to deliver to your generation is a function of the measure
of the Holy Spirit you have in you, and the level of closeness you share with
Him.
“The
Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach
good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that
are bound;”
Isaiah 61:1
From the above scripture, we see that it takes the
infilling of the Spirit to be able to effectively preach salvation to lost
sinners, heal broken hearts, set the captives free and release inmates from
Satan's prison. If a pastor is full of the Spirit and he is transferred to a
parish with lots of sorrow, sickness, poverty, loss, failure, etc., you will
discover that before long, all those tokens of the liar will disappear and in
place of tears, there shall be tears of joy and lots of miracles. If you want
to truly be of help to anyone - be it in ministerial or secular matters, get
close to the Holy Spirit. When you have the Spirit in you, you will save lots
of effort and needless struggles. Merely saying, 'It is well' to a hurting
fellow will have a great impact in comfort. Besides merely showing sympathy, if
you are full of the Holy Spirit, He can reverse the source of the sorrow and
deliver permanent joy. Are you prepared to impact your generation?
ACTION POINT

using the Word and other materials, extend comfort them.
