Plentiful Refreshment

"Their souls shall be like a well-watered garden."
~ Jeremiah 31:12

The Holy Spirit water's
and refreshes our souls.
  "oh, to have one's soul under heavenly cultivation; no longer a wilderness, but a garden of the Lord! Walled around by grace, planted by instruction, visited by love, weeded by heavenly discipline, and guarded by divine power, one's favored soul is prepared to yield fruit unto the Lord.
The Living Water that flows from
Heaven that Cultivates our souls.
  But a garden may become parched for want of water, and then it starts to wither. How soon would this be the case, were the Lord to leave us! A garden without water ceases to be a garden at all: nothing can come to perfection, grow or even live.
  But when irrigation is kept up, the result is charming. Oh, to have one's soul watered by the Holy Spirit uniformly, every part of the garden having its own stream. Bringing not only its heat, but its refreshment; each plant receiving just what it needs.
  Lord, water me today, and cause me to yield You a full reward."
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  1. Stay faithful and stay in the Word of God daily to feed your souls that you will not fall to temptation that may come your way. If we stay in God's Word daily, warning signs will go up all over when something that is unpleasing to God is going to happen. When Temptation comes nocking on your door, you will be able to tell and rebuke it, with the Authority of Jesus Christ who gave us this kind of Authority to rebuke and cast down any and all evil things that are unpleasing to God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Lord, this day, in this very hour, we come to You and ask that You will put Your Son's Precious Blood upon our beings, and Anoint our heads so that we will have a double dose of Protection. We also call upon Your Guardian Angels who keep watch over all Your children, that they will keep each and everyone of Your children safe as we adventure out today doing our everyday stuff. This we pray and receive it in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen. Oh, and Lord, we pray for the safety and covering over Your Guardian Angels as well, so that they can do their job without being seen by the enemy. This we pray in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen.
