Drink Deeply

Isaiah 12:3 "With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation!"

Joy is the key of evangelism and the fruit of the spirit. God told Isaiah that with joy the nation would drink deeply from the fountain of salvation. How deep have you drunk from that fountain? Many Christian stop drinking from the fountain of salvation the moment they are saved, but salvation is much deeper than the initial work of the spirit that happens when a person gets saved. That drink is just the first of many drinks from the fountain of salvation that God desires us to have. The work of salvation is a progressive work that takes time and consistency at the fountain. We are saved in a moment, but the completeness of that salvation in our lives is something that happens as we continue to drink from the fountain. Don't stop drinking until all you see when you look in the mirror is Jesus. When his image has been full marked upon your life you can push back from the fountain, but as long as there are areas in your life that lack his image keep drinking and drink deeply because the water is good
