In this sermon Saturated And Blessed By The River Of Life, The Rivers of living water represent the Holy Spirit of God that He dispenses to souls and gives them another life. Eternal Life. That is what you feel when a minister of God preaches in the anointing of the Holy Spirit. It's alive, so you can actually feel it in your soul. The two passages we read are very much closely knit together in essence of thought. We read of rivers of water in both and trees whose fruit and leaves are stressed specifically.
