THERE IS A TIME OF ABUNDANCE in your life. Your cup runneth over with blessings. After plodding uphill for many weeks, you are now traipsing through lush meadows drenched in warm sunshine. I want you to enjoy to the full this time of ease and refreshment. I delight in providing it for you.
Sometimes My children hesitate to receive My good gifts with open hands. Feelings of false guilt creep in, telling them they don’t deserve to be so richly blessed. This is nonsense-thinking, because no one deserves anything from Me. My kingdom is not about earning and deserving; it’s about believing and receiving.
When a child of Mine balks at accepting My gifts, I am deeply grieved. When you receive My abundant blessings with a grateful heart, I rejoice. My pleasure in giving and your pleasure in receiving flow together in joyous harmony.
Psalm 23:5 KJV Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Luke 11:9-10 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
Romans 8:32 He who did not spare his own son, but gave him up for us all–how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

I will sing to my Lord as long as I live, I will sing
praise to my God while I have my being.
Believe and receive overflowing blessings. That is the joyous promise in God’s call and our faith response. On the other hand, if our response to God’s call is not to believe, or to embrace doubt or to second guess God’s will, then any abundance that comes to us would likely be to our detriment. Why, because we are left to our own devices, limited wisdom and sensory limitations.
Unlike God, our ability is limited. We only see darkly, while God sees and knows all. And when we do respond to God’s call with faith, then we can embrace his overflowing abundance with joy and a clear conscience. It will be for our best good, and no evil shall overcome us.
Come to Eden; believe and bask in the unbridled joy of God’s limitless love and protection. It will bring joy to each of us and to God.
