ABOUT SINGING WATERS MINISTRIES
"Equipping
the People of God for the Healing of the Nations"
Located
just outside the town of Orangeville in Ontario, Canada, on 50 acres of
beautiful property miraculously provided by God, Singing Waters Ministries
has been serving the Church since 1956. Through the years, the heart
of the Ministry has remained focused on reaching out to the people of
God with healing and restoration.
Like this river that has small beginnings
only a small
trickle that swells to a stream, that meets and combines with other streams
of water, together joining to become a mighty river flowing into the ocean...
the Nottawasaga River, which means "River of Outlet" in
the Iroquois language, has its headwaters near Orangeville and runs through
Singing Waters. From there it flows into Georgian Bay, then into
the Great Lakes, along the St. Lawrence River and out into the Atlantic
Ocean. We believe this is a prophetic picture speaking into our
corporate calling at Singing Waters - to be an outlet for the healing
power of God to the nations. This is pictured by the prophet Ezekiel:
"Water was trickling
he led me through the
water, water reaching the ankles
Again he measured a thousand and
led me through the water, water reaching the knees. Again he measured
water
reaching the loins. Again he measured
and it was a river that
I could not ford
Then he brought me back to the bank of the
river
These waters go out toward the eastern region
then
they go toward the sea, being made to flow into the sea, and the waters
of the sea become fresh.
And it will come about that every living creature which
swarms in every place where the river goes, will live. And
there will be very many fish, for these waters go there, and the others
become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes
And by the river on its bank, on one side and on the other, will grow
all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither, and their
fruit will not fail. They will bear every month because their water
flows from the sanctuary, and their fruit will be for food and their leaves
for healing." (Ezekiel 47:1-12)
Canada's
flag is unique. It is the only flag in the world that bears a leaf
as its insignia. It has been spoken over Canada that as a nation
we are a people set apart by God to play an integral part in bringing
healing to the nations, or perhaps more clearly stated, the people groups
of the world. This is significant for the ministry at Singing Waters,
as our heart is to be like the "river of outlet" which not only
brings healing to individuals, families, churches and nations, but also
helps fulfill the prophetic call of the nation of Canada.
