What did Jesus mean by “living water”? In the Old Testament, many verses speak of thirsting after God as one thirst for water (Psalm 42:1; Isaiah 55:1; Jeremiah 2:13; Zechariah 13:1). God is called the fountain of life (Psalm 36:9) and the fountain of living water (Jeremiah 17:13). In saying he would bring living water that could forever quench a person’s thirst for God, Jesus was claiming to be the Messiah. Only the Messiah could give this gift that satisfies the soul’s desire.--- Life Application Study Bible notesDear Heavenly Father,Thank you for Your amazing free gift of salvation even though we all have sinned and fallen short of Your glory.I praise You and appreciate You for Your plan, Your Son and Your salvation.I come to a faith in Christ.
