God's Impossible Abundance

Commentators like John Calvin explain that water flowing on dry mountaintops is a powerful metaphor. It's not just about literal rain; it represents God providing abundant spiritual blessings in seemingly impossible situations. The image promises that under Christ's reign, no area of life is so barren that His grace cannot make it fruitful and bring overflowing spiritual prosperity.
