The Intimate Waters of Life
I heard, “Come be immersed in the Intimate Waters of Life, the Waters of Yada flowing from the Throne of Grace.”
Like never before, we are being pulled ever closer to our Father, the Giver of Life.
In Him, we live and move and have our being. He wants us to KNOW Him in an intimate way.
“Know” in the Hebrew is YADA, It means closely acquainted, dear, cherished, special, secret, innermost.
We know Him through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. He is our Secret Place, our Oasis in the midst of a chaotic world.
“Beloved. Draw near to me, My Child. In your innermost being shall flow the Warm Living Waters of Intimacy.
We were meant to be close and personal, with a Holy Connection that can never be breached.
Every day, every hour, with every Breath I pull you close to Me.
Do not pull away because you think you are not good enough. I have clothed you with Garments of Salvation and My Robe of Righteousness.
Deep is calling unto deep. My Waters are healing and peaceful. My Intimate Waters bring Shalom Peace to your mind and body.
They are the Waters of the Spirit wrapping around you and encompassing you with Arms of Grace.
I desire that you know Me, not in an intellectual way, but in an awareness of our most intimate relationship.
Many teach head knowledge, but I desire you have Heart knowledge, Dear One. The Spirit will teach you.
Beloved, only I can fill you up to overflowing with the Intimate Waters of Yada.
Only I can heal your heart and mind and body. Come to the Intimate Waters and rest. You shall know Me more and more.
Draw close, Beloved. Learn of Me for I AM gentle and humble of heart. You shall know Me as I AM.
I refresh the weary soul and replenish all who are weak. Deep is calling unto deep. Come drink and be immersed in the River of My Delights.”

YADA : Strong’s Hebrew #3045: yâdaʻ, yaw-dah’; The Torah is the original source of “yada.” It’s a Hebrew word, pronounced “yah-dah,” that translates as know or knowledge. But yada is no ordinary know. It’s far more than intellectual understanding. Yada means being aware in the most intimate relational sense. In the Old Testament it describes husband and wife relationships like how Adam knew Eve. When Paul expresses how he wants to know Jesus in the New Testament, Philippians 3:10, he is talking about having personal intimate yada. Yada relationships involve both head and heart understanding and shared personal experience. Yada is power packed. It’s the superglue of soul intimacy and unity between kindred spirits.
KNOW/ KNOWLEDGE : “Now this is eternal life, that they may KNOW You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.” John 17:3
The word “know” in John 17:3 from the Amplified Bible expresses the word know as progressively more intimately getting to know. (yadafactor)

“That I may KNOW Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.” Philippians 3:10-11.
“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matthew 11:28.
“Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls; all Your breakers and waves have rolled over me. The LORD decrees His loving devotion by day, and at night His song is with me as a prayer to the God of my life.” Isaiah 42:7-8.
