LIVING WATERS.
`Behold, the day of the Lord is coming....I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; the city shall be taken....then the Lord will go forth and fight against those nations,..... and in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the East.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, from east to west, making a very large valley;...And in that day it shall be that living waters shall flow from Jerusalem, half of them towards the eastern sea and half of them towards the western sea;...`(Zech. 14: 2 - 4, & 8)
When the Lord comes with His angelic army His feet touch the Mount of Olives, splitting it in two. Living water flows out across the valley towards the Mediterranean Sea and towards the Jordan, cleansing all in its path.
The Lord then delivered Israel from its enemies, and revealed Himself to them. They mourned, and later cleansed the temple. Meanwhile the Living waters were flowing, bringing healing and new growth along its shores. Israel has a special month to celebrate this.
The month is Shevat, the time for new growth. It celebrates the beginning of the `new year` for trees.
The living waters flow out cleansing the land bringing healing to the land, sea and fish. Trees grow along its banks for food and medicine.
`And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a great multitude of fish, because the waters go there; for they will be healed and everything will live wherever the river goes. ...
Along the banks of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees 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.` (Ez. 47: 9 & 12)
