In Abundance


As a Christian, lack is a figment of our imagination. It is a trick of the enemy to deprive us of the Promises of God. There is no lack in God. Nothing is missing, broken or lacking because of our resurrected Savior.

If you believe there is lack in your life then you are correct. What you believe is true for you but it's not sound doctrine. You are not being told to deny facts but to trust Him. We are to look to Him as our Source and Supply.

Provisions are all around us if we abide in Him and He in us. We can ask what we will and it will be given to us BUT we must have the Word of God living inside of us. There are conditions for these promises! And why not? Christ paid the price and we cannot or should not expect Him to do everything when we do not attempt to live for Him. The greatest thing in life is unconditionally received from Him and that is His love.

Nothing can separate us from the love of God but we can separate ourselves from the Promises of God. We must be transformed by renewing our minds. Change the way we think. Change what we speak. Abundance is flowing freely in the midst of our world economy. It's not this economy Christians place their hope but based of the Kingdom of God which has an unlimited supply and no deficits!

Yes, gas and food prices are high. Many people are unemployed and bills need to be paid. The price paid to overcome lack was much higher than these natural occurrences. Think about it. We must live by faith; call those things that are not as though they were. . . believing that we will receive. Our actions must not contradict our belief. When challenges come, and they will (as you know), give thanks and praise to our Father for being our Provider, Healer, Employer, Strength, Hope and Answer.

Live life, in abundance, to the full, until it overflows! It overflows so much that you can be a blessing to others. Live for Jesus. Serve Him. If you do not know Him, write to us and we will lead you to Him and help you find a local church to worship and grow in your relationship.

There is MORE than enough in Christ! The Holy Spirit changes everything to make all things new! Hallelujah!

With the love of Christ
