Jeremiah & the Woman at the Well

For My people have committed two evils:
*They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters,
*And hewn themselves cisterns—broken cisterns that can hold no water.
Jeremiah 2:13

"The Samaritan woman came to the well to draw the water she needed to live. Jesus told her that He could give her “living water”—an internal spring of water—that would provide eternal life. That is the sense in which the Lord told Jeremiah that the people of Judah had forsaken the “fountain of
living waters and were attempting to construct “cisterns” that would not, and indeed, could not, hold any of the eternal water that came only from God. Any cistern we create for ourselves will be a broken cistern.

Once the “living water” is rejected—whether by a nation, an organization, or by an individual—any man-made cistern is insufficient to hold the great truths of the Creator because that cistern exchanges “the truth of God for the lie” and sets up a man-made device that worships “the creature rather than the Creator.” The Scriptures are clear! “Living water” comes from God alone. Any cistern that we manufacture from our own knowledge or capabilities will always be broken."
