And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

Isa 45:21-24 KJV
Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together:
who hath declared this from ancient time?
who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD?
and there is no God else beside me;
a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
(22) Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth:
for I am God, and there is none else.
(23) I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth
in righteousness, and shall not return,
That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
(24) Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength:
even to him shall men come;
and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

Isa 55:1-3 KJV
Ho, every one that thirsteth,
come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money;
come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
(2) Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread?
and your labour for that which satisfieth not?
hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good,
and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
(3) Incline your ear, and come unto me:
hear, and your soul shall live;
and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

Joh 6:35-40 KJV
And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life:
he that cometh to me shall never hunger;
and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
(36) But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
(37) All that the Father giveth me shall come to me;
and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
(38) For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will,
but the will of him that sent me.
(39) And this is the Father's will which hath sent me,
that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing,
but should raise it up again at the last day.
(40) And this is the will of him that sent me,
that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life:
and I will raise him up at the last day.

Joh 7:37-39 KJV
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.
(38) He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said,
out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
(39) (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.)

Rev 22:13-17 KJV
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
(14) Blessed are they that do his commandments,
that they may have right to the tree of life,
and may enter in through the gates into the city.
(15) For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers,
and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
(16) I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.
I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
(17) And the Spirit and the bride say, Come.
And let him that heareth say, Come.
And let him that is athirst come.
And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

Isa 48:16-18 KJV
Come ye near unto me, hear ye this;
I have not spoken in secret from the beginning;
from the time that it was, there am I:
and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
(17) Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel;
I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit,
which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
(18) O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments!
then had thy peace been as a river,
and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:

Heb 4:1-3 KJV
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest,
any of you should seem to come short of it.
(2) For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them:
but the word preached did not profit them,
not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
(3) For we which have believed do enter into rest,
as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest:
although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
