Revelations 22:1-4; 17
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.

Why Zao?
Because your Light has come! Therefore, ARISE and SHINE for the Glory of the Lord has risen upon you; now LIVE the abundant, Spirit-filled life that God promises each and every believer in Jesus Christ.
(Isaiah 60:1 & John 10:10)
