The Promise of the Spirit

Isaiah 44:3-4
Fear not......For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, and My blessing on your offspring; they will spring up among the grass like willows by the watercourses.”

This is a promise of the Redeemer to His people. He will not only quench those who are thirsty but He would pour His Holy Spirit on them. The word 'pour' suggests overwhelming gush of the Spirit. There is abundance here. If you are thirsty for God, feeling empty, God is ready to pour. If we have tasted a few drops, are we ready for more? Ask for it and receive Him by faith. This blessing is not only for you but for your descendants as well. And the result of this 'pouring' is life. 'They will spring up among the grass like willows by the watercourses. Don't we want our children and their children to be blessed as such by the Lord?
