The Lamb, He who has compassion on them; will be their shepherd and lead and guide them to springs of living water? What springs of living water will The Lamb lead and guide them to? Psalm 23:1-3 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. [2] He makes me to lie down in green pastures: he leads me beside the still waters.

what still waters?


They will not hunger or thirst, nor will the scorching heat or sun strike them down; For He who has compassion on them will lead them and guide them to springs of water. Isaiah 49:10.

They will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun beat down on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and will guide them to springs of the water of life; and God will wipe every tear from their eyes. Revelation 7:16-17

Now the main point in what has been said
[is this]
We have such a high priest who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.

A minister in the sanctuary and in the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

Now if He were on earth
He would not be High Priest at all,

Since those offer the gifts according to the Law, who serve as a copy and shadow of the heavenly things…Just as Moses was warned [by God] when he (Moses, a man) was about to erect the tabernacle (the Tabernacle the Lord pitched, not man), “SEE” He says “you make all things according to the pattern which was shown on the mountain.” Luke 9:28-35 what is the pattern?

Ones tent, encamp, have My Tabernacle.
skēnóō – properly, to pitch or live in a tent, "denoting much more than the mere general notion of dwelling" (M. Vincent). For the Christian, 4637 (skēnóō) is dwelling in intimate communion with the resurrected Christ – even as He who Himself lived in unbroken communion with the Father during the days of His flesh (Jn 1:14). See 4638 (skēnōma).​

For this reason,
They are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple,
He who sits on the throne Will spread His Tabernacle (The True Tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man) (The New Man in Christ), His Tabernacle will He spread over them.

Ones tent, encamp, have My Tabernacle.

Your last two verses are about the life giving message. The meaning of the still waters of Psalms is the peace and contentment that God's people enjoy

to me (wrong or right) the still waters in “He leads me beside still waters”…

or the springs of living water The Lamb, their Shepherd leads and guides them to …

or He will be their Shepherd and will guide them to springs of the Water of Life

Is John 7:37-38 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 believes on me, as the scripture has said (before it comes to pass so that when it does come to pass, you will believe for I told you “as the scriptures has said”), out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that hears say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

consider Luke 21:25-26 upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
^ to me distress…perplexity describes a people, with that distress and perplexity given an example “the sea and waves roar”, to me that is not the literal sea and waves roar —but mens hearts failing the for fear and looking after those things coming upon the earth for which they roar. I’m not trying to convince you but only sharing because it (again an opinion only) it is significant to His compassion, guidance and leading beside “still waters”.

You mentioned “the Life giving message” agree but see also Life is in His body, where joined all parts supply one for another.

Yes that is correct, so then what are the waters of life that we are receiving today? Literal water? I think if you think about it, you will realize it is the life saving message Jesus assigned his disciples to preach until the entire earth is reached. Mat 28:19,20; Acts 1:8; Mat 24:14
