💦 THE WATER GATE 💦
Nehemiah 3:26 Moreover the Nethinim who dwelt in Ophel made repairs as far as the place in front of the Water Gate toward the east, and on the projecting tower.
The Water Gate led from the old City of David to the Gihon Spring, located adjacent to the Kidron Valley. If the Fountain Gate reminds us of the Spirit of God, the Water Gate reminds us of the Word of God.
In fact,it was at the Water Gate that Ezra and the priests conducted a great Bible conference and explained the Scriptures to the people.
💦📖He read it aloud from daybreak till noon as he faced the square before the Water Gate in the presence of the men, women and others who could understand.
Nehemiah 8:3📖💦
That this gate is not said to have been repaired, as were the others, suggests that the Word of God stands forever and won't fail.
📖Psalm 119:89 Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven. 📖
The Bible does not need to be repaired or improved, it's perfect. Therefore, we must earnestly study it and obey it fully.
APPLICATION 💦
❓Have you entered the water gate?
❓Do you read God's word each day?
❓Do you seek His will?
