names of God: Fountain of Living Waters

names of God: Fountain of Living Waters by ric gustafson


Jeremiah 2:13-' They have forsaken me the fountain of living waters'


This term refers to God the Father. In this passage, God through his prophet Jeremiah is telling the people he is frustrated that they are once again turning to false gods. Even solid rock cisterns that collect water are cracking. In this passage, God is calling himself the fountain of living waters. Jesus and the Holy Spirit are life sustaining waters. God is the fountain from which this living water flows.
