Revelation 22:1

And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

·        Through the Old Testament, prophets used the picture of a river as a powerful expression of richness, provision, and peace (Isaiah 48:18; Zechariah 14:8; Ezekiel 47:1-9).  (DG)

·        This river of provision comes right from God’s throne. Because it comes from God, it cannot be anything other than pure and abundant.  (DG)

Genesis 2:9    And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food.  The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Psalm 46:4  There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
