THE RIVER IS IN THEM!
Cheryl McGrath, 8th July, 1999
As I watched those in the river, the water appeared to decrease gradually, until it was only around their ankles. As this happened, they began to look up and become aware of those watching from the muddy banks. They acted as if they had not been aware of those on the banks previously. Their focus changed from the river to those on the banks, and they started moving out of the river into the seemingly endless crowds gathered along the banks. I saw them start to move amongst and lay hands upon those gathered along the river's edge. Many of the "bank people" fell in the Spirit, many received healing, many were saved and restored as the "river people" moved among them ministering. I saw their malnourished bodies and faces fill with life and color as they were touched by the river people. I knew the "river people" could only move in this kind of power because they had been in the river. I looked back at the river and saw that all of the river people had left and were now moving amongst the "bank people" and that wherever they went and to whoever they touched they brought life, miracles and healing. This is where the vision ended.
I believe this is what He said: "You, and many of My people, have not understood the river, nor its purpose. It does not dry up and will not, because it is not a PLACE, it is a PERSON. You don't just get into the river, the river gets into you. (John 7:37-39) The reason the people who had been in the river were able to do the things you saw them doing in the vision is because THE RIVER IS IN THEM. The river flows with Living Water; it is not confined or contained, nor is it limited. No longer say "The river flows here, so I am going here, but it does not flow there, so I will not go there" For in saying that you attempt to restrict and contain the flow of My Spirit. Know that the river is not a place ... it is the very power and Person of My Spirit! The river is about to move out from its banks through My people ... they are the carriers of the river, and the flow will depend on their obedience. I am not about to dry up My river ... I am about to let it loose!".
