And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. [8] And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. [9] And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. [10] And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. [11] The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; [12] And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. [13] And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. [14] And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates. [15] And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Genesis 2:7-15 KJV
How Do We Live as a Garden in Eden? By listening for the Word of God and declaring it by faith. Sometimes, we live by probability/chance which is wrong. Darkness would have been darkness if the river did not flow from God to bring light. The beauty of being in Eden is that you receive the river from heaven (the Word from God) and dispense this river to humanity, bringing healing and life. The beauty of being a temple is that you house God. As a result, a person knows that if they come and pray with you, they know that they will encounter the God who answers prayers. A person can come to you and fetch living water to drink because your interactions give life.
