Well if you haven't seen it, I see it.
I see the Lord fulfilling his word.
I see the streams of water flowing from the 'temple' of the Lord i.e. His Church.
This river births life, rejuvenates, heals and restores everything it touches.
I see the flow of water healing the land, it's institutions, people and governments.
I see the flow coming out of the body of Christ.
We are his body. Our spirits His temple.
As he is enthroned there - in our belly (our innermost being), out of this His throne will flow the river of life: his spirit.
"In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) " John 7:37 -39
We are a type of the New Jerusalem described in Revelation 21, and that New Jerusalem is a type of the Church - the bride of Christ. That life-giving Holy spirit that flows out of us is the river of life that issues from the throne of God which is in our innermost being. The difference between the life we give and other types of 'life' and 'good' is it's origin. The restoring and renewing water that flows out of us is that which originates from our God the Father and Christ the lamb: from his throne in our hearts. His is a pure river... clear as glass. On each sides of it are the lush trees of life whose leaves serve healing to the nations.

Something happened this past Pentecost Sunday celebrated by most churches, the river flowed. Christ was enthroned in many hearts and the Holyspirit was poured out. If you haven't had a meeting like this, plan or watch a Holyspirit encounter ì from any committed Bible-believing church and get Jesus enthroned or re-enthroned in your heart, other hearts and in your church or ministry. Something starred: flames that must continually be fanned into raging but healing fires.
This type of fire does not burn out as long as the throne of the King remains it's origin. This river does not run out as it's source remains the throne of the lamb who was slain from the foundations of the earth.
The King is God the Father. The lamb is Jesus Christ his son. The throne is in our innermost being which is in our spirits - our 'hearts'.
Jesus enthroned is His word enthroned.
God the Father enthroned is Jesus Christ enthroned.
The Holy spirit promotes only Jesus - nothing and no one else.
As long as Jesus remains King on the throne in our innermost being, his fire will never die and the river will never run dry.
Have trust.

"And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." Revelation 22:1-3
"But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you."
John 16: 13 -14
[Revelation 21:2,9; 13:8 Colossians 2:9]

Let the King of my heart
Be the mountain where I run
The fountain I drink from
Oh, He is my song
Let the King of my heart
Be the shadow where I hide
The ransom for my life
Oh, He is my song
'Cause You are good
You are good, oh oh
You are good
You are good, oh oh
You are good
You are good, oh oh
You are good
You are good, oh oh
And let the King of my heart
Be the wind inside my sails
The anchor in the waves
Oh oh, He is my song
Let the King of my heart
Be the fire inside my veins
The echo of my days
Oh oh, He is my song
....
