“…my cup overflows. Surely Your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life…” (Psalm 23:5,6 NIV)
If that isn’t a positive affirmation, I
don’t know what is.
Imagine yourself, for a moment, filling a large
jug with water into a teacup without stopping when the teacup is full. What do
you see?
What if you changed the jug into a hose
that’s attached to a fully opened tap? What do you see?
That’s how God wants to bless you. He wants
you to experience a continuous source of supply, like gushing water from a tap,
always flowing into your cup, filling it up to the brim and then overflowing.
This outpouring of God’s blessings was not
and is not exclusively David’s but you too can have a life of Divine favour and
grace upon grace, by drinking of the cup of Salvation through Jesus Christ and
coming into genuine relationship with Him. David had a genuine relationship
with God and was blessed in that relationship.
Beloved, know that God longs to fill every
area of your life again and again with His goodness, and His love each day of
your life. God’s desire is for you to be pursued by His abundant bountiful
provision, always and everywhere no matter where you are.
How wonderful to be the recipient of such a
beyond-your-imagination blessing – far more abundantly beyond all that you ask
or think (see Ephesians 3:20).
Can you see yourself so blessed?
Can you believe that such a blessing can be
yours?
Will you believe that it is already yours?
Yes, it can, it will if you just believe,
for it is when you believe that you see…
“Didn’t I tell you
that you would see God’s glory if you believe?” (John 11:40 NLT);
it is when you believe that you will have…
“If you believe,
you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.” (Matthew 21:22 NIV);
it is when you speak what you believed,
that it is manifested…
“I believed in
God, so I spoke.” (2 Corinthians 4:13 NLT).
Beloved, your responsibility is to believe,
only believe, and to speak, affirming, like David, every day, “My Cup
Overflows!”, until you see, until you have, and until it is manifested.
Amen†
