His Abundance!!!

John 1:16 “From His abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another...”

There is so much available because of Christ.  So often we meditate on what we don’t have and on the “dis” around us and not on the “re”.  Why not focus on the “More Than Enough” God we serve?  We can change our focus and change our life...



 "From His abundance...” 
  • There is no shortage with God...will I live in His abundance?
  • He is the God who is always More Than Enough...do I pray with this understanding?
  • He is more than sufficient...do I rely on His sufficiency or mine?
  • He goes beyond our abilities and limitations and causes us to live that way also...is this able to be seen in my home?  In my relationships?

“...we have all received...”
  • Have I positioned myself to receive today?
  • Do I understand I am God’s child?
  • Do I walk in my inheritance available through Christ?
  • Do I pray with the understanding that my God has already obtained these blessings for me?

“...one gracious blessing after another...”
  • This is a lens adjustment to our perspective glasses...can I see the blessings?
  • Will I choose to look at the blessings and keep my eyes fixed on Jesus and His amazing provisions?
  • Will I choose RE not DIS and cooperate with God?
  • restore, revive, receive, renew, renovate, reestablish...NOT discredit, disobey, distort, disestablish, dismember, etc...

Let’s keep our eyes on Jesus!  Let’s enjoy, ponder and report on His great blessings in our lives daily!!! Take a look at this news report about my friend.  This is what I am talking about!
