Out of Your Belly

Pastor Keith Hassell

Foundation Scripture:   John 7:37-38

I.       Out of our belly will flow rivers of life

II.      The belly can refer to either the stomach or to the womb (hollow part)

A.      Job 3:11  “Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?”

B.      Jeremiah 1:5 (KJV)  “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.”

III.    We need the meat of the vision in our belly (Ezekiel 3:1-3)

          A.      Scroll:                             The word of the vision

          B.      Son of Man:                    The vessel

          C.      Eat:                                 Entry of the vision

          D.      He caused me to eat:       Fed by the Spirit

          E.      Feed and fill:                   Fill your belly with the vision

          F.      Sweetness:                      Love for the vision

          G.      Go and speak:                 Win souls and make disciples

          H.      This speaks of the word of God, the meat of the vision

IV.     We need the seed of the vision in the womb of our spirit

A.      In the secret place of intimacy with God the seed of vision is deposited in our heart

B.      This speaks of becoming pregnant with the multitudes

C.      The heart of the vision comes in the place of prayer

V.      We need to release the river of the vision

            A.      John 7:37-38

          B.      This speaks of the river of the Holy Spirit

          C.      This speaks of birthing sons and daughters of God, souls
