I like to start with something funny, 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:42.320 and I heard about five relationship tips for women. Number one, 0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.320 it's important to find a man that loves you and 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.959 is loyal. Number two, it's important to find a man 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:53.080 that's fun and makes you laugh. Number three, it's important 0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.800 to find a man that's a hard worker provides a 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:59.200 good living. Number four, it's important to find a man 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.400 that's a great father and is good with children. And 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:05.799 number five, it's important that none of these four men 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:10.360 know each other. I don't know how scriptural that is, 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:13.480 but here we go. This is my Bible. I am 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.040 what it says, I am, I have what it says 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:19.480 I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today. 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:23.079 I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess. 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:27.080 My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:30.920 never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.760 I want to talk to you today about get ready 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:39.160 for overflow. God didn't create us to just get by 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:42.320 in life, to just have enough for what we need. 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.960 We're grateful for that. But God is not a get 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:49.760 by God. He's an overflow God. He wants you to 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:54.160 have an abundance so you can be a blessing to others. Well, 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:57.640 you have so much joy. You bring joy everywhere you go. 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.240 You have so many resources that you can help those 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.960 around you. You may not have seen this yet, but 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.600 God is about to do a new thing. One touch 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.960 of His favor will take you from having just enough 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.400 to having more than enough. You need to get ready. 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:21.599 Overflow is coming. You're going to overflow with creativity, with ideas, 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:26.599 with talent, Overflow with good relationships with great people in 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:32.599 your life. Overflow with influence, promotion, resources where you can 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.279 come out of debt, where you can lend and not 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:39.119 have to borrow. Now get in agreement with God, Father, 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:42.280 Thank you that overflow is coming. Thank you that you're 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:46.400 a more than enough God. In the scripture, Jesus was 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.919 out in the desert teaching the people, and it was 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.600 late in the day. They were all hungry. Jesus told 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:55.520 his disciples to feed them where they were in the 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.320 middle of nowhere. They said, Jesus, all we have are 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:02.400 five loaves of bread, and Jesus told them to have 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.360 the people sit in groups of fifty and one hundred. 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:08.640 The disciples went out and counted the people put them 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:12.800 in different groups. There were five thousand men there, plus 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:16.360 the women and children. Jesus prayed over the food and 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:20.599 it multiplied as they served the people. The food kept coming. 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.800 When it was all over, they had twelve baskets full 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:30.320 of food left over. What's interesting is Jesus knew exactly 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.479 how many people were there that day. He had the 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:37.359 disciples take the time to count. He could have stopped 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:41.320 the food from multiplying as soon as everyone was fed. 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:47.120 After all, God is precise, He doesn't make mistakes. It's 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:51.560 not like he miscalculated he accidentally made too much food 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:56.960 on purpose. God designed there to be overflowed. He was 0:05:57.040 --> 0:06:00.880 showing us his nature. He not on He wants to 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:04.640 meet your needs. He's an overflow god, a god of 0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:07.960 more than enough. When he laid out the plan for 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:12.800 your life, he calculated exactly what you would need. He 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.440 knows what it's going to take to get you to 0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:20.800 your destiny. Then on purpose, he added extra. When your 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.240 needs were met, he said, in a fact, let me 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:27.360 keep multiplying. Let me give them more than enough. He's 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:32.920 already designed overflow for you. He's already lined up the promotion, 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:37.280 the good breaks, the right people, the favor. You're going 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.400 to come into these times where you see God show 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:44.000 out in your life. You didn't have the experience, you 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:48.200 weren't next in line, but suddenly you're promoted, Suddenly you 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:51.200 meet the right person, Suddenly you come out of debt. 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:54.679 You weren't looking for it, but the blessing came looking 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:58.800 for you. Now. Sometimes people will try to convince us 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:02.000 that we're not supposed to to be blessed. My father 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:05.159 was taught in seminary that he was supposed to live 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.839 in lack to show that he was humble. But one 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.720 of the names for God is el shady. That means 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:16.680 more than enough. If God wanted you to just get by, 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:20.320 if he wanted you to have just enough? Why would 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:24.280 his name be more than enough. Don't let people talk 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:28.760 you out of the overflow that belongs to you. Well, Joel, 0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:33.000 I'm just grateful to get by. Yes, be grateful, but 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:36.880 don't stop there. Lord, Thank you that you're el Shadai, 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.000 the god of more than enough. Thank you that overflow 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:44.240 is headed my way. The scripture says in Malachi, when 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:47.400 you honor God with your income, when you give the 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:51.400 tithe the first ten percent of your salary, God will 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:55.040 open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing 0:07:55.440 --> 0:08:01.560 that you cannot contain. That's the overflow God containing. And 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:05.840 many of you have been faithful, You've given, you've served, 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:10.040 you've helped others. God has some of these cannot contain 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:14.800 blessings come in your way. He's not limited by your job, 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:18.800 by your salary, by what family you come from. He 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:23.320 knows how to increase you. One good break, one idea, 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:27.880 one contract, one inheritance will put you into more than enough. 0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:32.800 I'm asking you to get ready for overflow, get ready 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.920 for bleeds, blessings that you cannot contain. Well, Joel, I 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:39.440 don't see how this can happen. You don't have to 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:43.280 see how all you have to do is believe. In 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:46.600 the Old Testament, the Israelites were in the desert, headed 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:50.280 toward the Promised Land. They got tired of eating the 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:54.080 manna each day that was something like bread. They went 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:57.679 to Moses and said they wanted meat to eat. There 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:02.880 were two million people out there ghost stores. Moses was frustrated. 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:06.520 He said, God, even if we butchered all of our flocks, 0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:09.160 all of our herds, we wouldn't have that much meat. 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:13.640 God said Moses, when did I become weak? Have I 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:17.479 lost my power? Don't you realize I controlled the universe? 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:22.199 God shifted the winds and caused millions of quall to 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:26.520 come into their camp. For miles, everywhere they looked, there 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:30.440 were quail flying three feet off the ground. The scripture 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.680 says they gathered them up all day and all night, 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:37.560 and no one had less than fifty bushels of quail, 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:41.680 or you could say fifty boxes of steak. One moment 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.920 they were in lack struggling, no sign of increase. The 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.280 next moment they were in overflowed. They had more than enough. 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:54.800 What's interesting is quall don't normally fly that far from water. 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.280 Normally they'd never be way out in the desert. But 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:02.280 God shifted the winds, and suddenly the quill showed up. 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:06.000 You may not see how you could ever come into overflow, 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.360 how you could ever have more than enough. All God 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:12.600 has to do is shift the winds, cause the right 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:16.000 people to be good to you, cause the contract, the promotion, 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:20.600 the scholarship to come your way. All the circumstances may 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.720 say it's impossible. God is asking you what he asked them. 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.200 When did I become weak? Is there any limit to 0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:32.600 my power? Get in agreement with God. He's about to 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:36.160 shift some things in your favor. He's about to open 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:39.320 a door that no person can shut. He's about to 0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:41.880 put you at the right place at the right time. 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:45.880 He's going to cause the quell to find you. We 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:49.240 look at our situations in the natural, but we serve 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:53.640 a supernatural God. He has ways to increase you you've never 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:58.200 thought of. Just to shift here and suddenly you're in overflow. 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:03.160 A shift there, and sodden blessings you cannot contain. A 0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:06.720 statistician ran some numbers based on the size of the 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.280 Israelites camp and the number of people quel three feet 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:14.000 off the ground. He concluded that one hundred and five 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:18.400 million quell came into their camp that day. God could 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.520 have given them a couple of quell each, that would 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:25.720 have been four million quell. But God doesn't just want 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.640 to meet your needs. He wants to give you overflow. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:32.040 He wants to bring you into more than enough. A 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:34.600 friend of mine wanted to buy some property to build 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:37.960 a school on. He had some land, but he needed more. 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:42.319 There were ten acres behind him connecting to his property. 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:45.760 He had bought his land for four thousand dollars an acre. 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:49.440 He inquired about this new property. They wanted twenty five 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.640 thousand an acre, more than five times what he paid 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:56.040 for his He was disappointed. He didn't have the funds, 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.360 and he knew he was supposed to build a school, 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:02.960 but he didn't see how it happened. Instead of living discouraged, 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:06.200 talking to himself out of it, he kept thanking God 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.760 that overflow was coming, that he was a more than 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.960 enough God. Three years later, a man from the government 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:17.800 unexpectedly knocked on his door. He'd never met the man, 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.080 never told him he was looking for property. But this 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.000 man told my friend that there were one hundred and 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:29.079 twenty acres right across the street that had nine buildings 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:32.920 on it. The property had been foreclosed on five times. 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:36.280 He said, I'm authorized to get rid of it. Make 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:39.319 me an offer, and we'll see what we can do well. 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:43.320 At twenty five thousand an acre, like the property behind him, 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:47.000 the land alone would have been three million dollars, plus 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:50.200 there were nine nice buildings that he could use for 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:53.240 a school. My friend said, I'll give you two hundred 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:56.280 thousand dollars. The man shook his hand and said, you've 0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:58.880 got a deal. He got the one hundred and twenty 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:03.120 acres fine buildings for less than ten percent of what 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:07.240 it was value. That God knows how to bring you 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:11.080 into overflow. He can make things happen that you could 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.160 never make happen. Now. I love the fact that my 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.520 friend wasn't looking for this man. He wasn't trying to 0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:20.920 track him down talk him into it. The man came 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:25.000 looking for him. The scripture says, when you honor God, 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.880 blessings will chase you down. You don't have to look 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:32.400 for the blessing. Just keep God first place and the 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.640 blessing will look for you. Now, I believe right now, 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:39.679 promotion is looking for you. The right people are looking 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:44.240 for you. The healing, the scholarship, the property, the business 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:47.319 is looking for you. It's just a matter of time 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:50.160 before you hear that knock on the door. You weren't 0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:53.960 expecting it. You couldn't have made it happen. What was that, 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:57.880 the God of overflow pouring out one of those blessings 0:13:57.920 --> 0:14:01.760 that you cannot contain. This is what happened to Peter 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:05.520 in Luke, chapter five. He had been fishing all night. 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:10.040 He'd worked hard, done his best, and caught nothing. Early 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.280 the next morning he was on the shore cleaning his 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:17.200 net when Jesus came up and asked to borrow his boat. 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:21.720 He had never met Peter, but Peter agreed. Jesus used 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.640 the boat to teach the people from the shore. When 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.800 he finished, he told Peter to go back out in 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:32.240 the water and he would catch a great haul of fish. Well, 0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:36.080 Peter was a professional fisherman, he knew when to fish. 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.760 This wasn't the right time, after all, he had already 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:43.520 been out there for hours. He almost talked himself out 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:47.080 of it. He said, Jesus, we fished all night and 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:51.560 caught nothing. Nevertheless, at your word, I'll go back out. 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:56.360 Peter threw out his net. Verse six says he caught 0:14:56.480 --> 0:15:00.200 so many fish that his net began to break. He 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:03.480 had to call another boat over to help him gather 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:07.080 up the fish. There were so many that both boats 0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:11.160 begin to sink. They barely made it back to the shore. Now, 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:14.920 Peter had caught fish many times before, but he had 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:18.200 never had his net break. He'd never had to call 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:22.360 on another boat. We've all seen God's goodness in the past. 0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:26.560 We've seen him open doors, We've seen him turn situations around. 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:30.560 You haven't seen anything yet. God has some of these 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:35.720 net breaking blessings coming for you. Favor that you weren't 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:40.400 prepared for, increase in such amazing ways that you can't 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.400 handle it on your own. Well, Joel, I don't know 0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:46.280 if this is for me today. Last year wasn't too hot, 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.800 and business is slow. I've been stuck at this same 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:53.560 place for years. You're right where Peter was. He had 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:57.000 worked hard all night, he had done the right thing 0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:02.000 and had no success. He was tired, frustrated, thinking he 0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:06.360 was wasting his time. Nothing looked like he was about 0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:10.840 to come into overflow. None of his circumstances said he 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:15.400 was about to see a net breaking blessing. Just the opposite. 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:18.720 When it looks the worst, when you don't see any 0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:23.560 sign of things improving, stay encouraged. You're on the verge 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:28.920 of overflow. You're close to a net breaking blessing. Jesus 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:32.240 said to Peter. In effect, just because it didn't happen 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:35.720 last night doesn't mean it's not going to happen this morning. 0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:39.840 Just because it didn't happen last year doesn't mean it's 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:43.640 not going to happen this year. Maybe you're where Peter was. 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.640 You've worked hard, you've been faithful, You've done your best 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:52.160 and caught nothing. Your time is coming. There weren't any 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:56.240 fish out there last time. But God controls the fish. 0:16:56.560 --> 0:17:00.000 He knows how to cause the fish to find you. 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:04.320 It's not too late. Business may be slow, the medical 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:09.080 report doesn't look good. You're in prime position for overflow. 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:13.480 God is saying, throw that net out one more time. 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:19.080 Start believing again, start dreaming again, start taking steps of faith. 0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:23.199 You don't know what God is about to do. The 0:17:23.320 --> 0:17:26.920 reason it hasn't happened yet is it's much bigger than 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:29.960 what you think. It's not going to be a normal catch, 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:34.679 an ordinary promotion, an average contract. It's going to be 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:40.679 a net breaking blessing, something unprecedented favor so heavy it 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:44.399 causes the boat to start to sink. The scripture says 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:48.560 Peter was astonished at the amount of fish they caught. 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:53.120 He was amazed, bewildered. He had never seen that size 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.600 of catch. God is going to do things in your 0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:01.120 life that astonish you. Doors over and that you never 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:04.440 dreamed would open. He's going to put you in positions 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:09.200 of influence and leadership that you've never imagined. He's going 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:14.160 to give you resources, funds, opportunities like you've never dreamed. 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:18.879 God's idea of overflow is not just a little more 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:22.680 of what you have now. It's a new dimension. It's 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:27.880 something unprecedented, something that you've never fathomed. I grew up 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:31.960 watching the Rockets play basketball here. I had season tickets 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:36.240 over to my left. Never in my wildest dreams did 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.840 I ever think one day we would own this building. 0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:42.480 I came to the games as a fan like the 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:46.359 other thousands of people. But God's dream for your life 0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:50.040 is much bigger than your own. He has blessings that 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:53.159 are going to catapult your family to a new level. 0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:57.040 When I became the pastor, the church began to grow. 0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:00.560 I knew we needed a larger place, but it never 0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:03.520 entered my mind to try to get the Compact Center. 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:07.000 This was so far out of my thinking. I had 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:11.719 seen my father build sanctuary after sanctuary growing up and 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:15.760 add on to buildings. That was the normal way. That's 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.879 what I was planning to do. But God is not 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:23.199 going to always take you down a normal, traditional path. 0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:26.240 You're going to come into these times where God is 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:30.920 going to do something unprecedented, something that's never been seen 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:34.320 in your family, something in your business that you've never 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:38.359 seen happen. When the door to the Compact Center opened up, 0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:41.600 God caused things to fall into place, and when the 0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:44.440 city council members voted for us to have the building, 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:49.240 like Peter, I was astonished. I couldn't believe that it happened. 0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:53.240 When I drive up now, sometimes I still get goosebumps. 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:59.640 I recognize this is a net breaking blessing. David talked 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:03.320 about God of overflow in Psalm twenty three. He said, 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:08.200 my cup runs over. When you pour water into a glass, 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.639 you have to stop when you come to the top 0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:14.679 of the glass. You're limited by the size of the container. 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:18.800 But God says, when I pour out a blessing. I'm 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:23.240 not limited by your capacity to receive. You may have 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:28.280 a small cup, small faith, small dreams. If God only 0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:32.240 blessed us according to what we believed, we would never 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:35.840 reach our potential. We wouldn't have the compact center. I 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:39.439 couldn't fathom this. I didn't have the faith for this 0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:43.160 size of blessing. And if it was only up to us, 0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:47.960 we would never see Ephesians three twenty. God doing exceedingly 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:52.000 more than we can ask, think or imagine. But God 0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:54.919 is so good, he says, even if you have a 0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:58.639 small cup, even if you have small faith, that's not 0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:01.560 going to keep the big blessing from coming from me. 0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:05.400 God is not going to stop pouring at the top 0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.159 of your cup. He's going to give you a running 0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:11.680 over blessing. I would love to tell you that where 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:15.080 I am is because I've had great faith, and I've 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:18.760 always believed for big things. But much of what I've 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:23.560 seen are simply running over blessings. God blessing me way 0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:27.520 beyond what I had the faith for. Now I've learned 0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:31.120 it's not the size of your faith that will limit you. 0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:35.560 It's the quality of your character. If you will keep 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:39.520 your heart pure before God. That doesn't mean that you're perfect, 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:43.000 But when you make mistakes, you ask for forgiveness. You 0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:46.159 do better the next time you treat people right. You 0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:50.080 have a good attitude. Then God can release these running 0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:54.440 over blessings, blessings that you can't fathom. It's not going 0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:57.800 to be your lack of faith that stops you. That's 0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:00.800 why the scripture says, if you have faith the size 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:04.640 of a mustard seed, you can move mountains. Even when 0:22:04.680 --> 0:22:07.960 Peter went back out to fish when Jesus told him to, 0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:11.320 he didn't think he was going to catch anything. He 0:22:11.440 --> 0:22:15.760 was just being respectful. He was just honoring Jesus. But 0:22:15.840 --> 0:22:18.640 God looks at our heart as much as he looks 0:22:18.680 --> 0:22:21.679 at our faith. Peter may not have had the faith, 0:22:22.040 --> 0:22:25.240 but he had the heart to please God. Don't be 0:22:25.280 --> 0:22:28.199 discouraged if you don't feel like you have enough faith. 0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:31.720 You have small dreams, a small cup. You think you're 0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:34.520 limited by how you were raised, or by how big 0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:37.480 that obstacle is. You wish you had more faith. The 0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:42.040 good news is God has running over blessings because your 0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:45.160 heart is right. Your lack of faith is not going 0:22:45.200 --> 0:22:48.639 to stop the awesome future that God has in store 0:22:48.680 --> 0:22:54.400 for you. Isaiah fifty four says enlarger house building. Addition, 0:22:54.880 --> 0:22:59.199 for soon you will be bursting at the seams. You 0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:01.800 may feel like you stuck. You don't see how you 0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:05.920 could accomplish your dreams. God is saying, soon you're going 0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:09.199 to be bursting at the seams. Soon you're going to 0:23:09.200 --> 0:23:12.760 see a net breaking blessing. God is about to do 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:18.120 something unusual, out of the ordinary, promotion that you can't contain, 0:23:18.840 --> 0:23:22.119 increase that causes you to explode to a new level. 0:23:23.080 --> 0:23:27.640 Some friends of mine moved to Botswana, Africa to become missionaries. 0:23:28.080 --> 0:23:30.920 They're out in the middle of nowhere, taking care of 0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:34.040 the orphans, feeding the poor. They've been there faithfully, year 0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:37.480 after year. They had a dream to build a big 0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:40.200 youth center so the young people would have a place 0:23:40.240 --> 0:23:43.120 to come and learn and make friends. It was going 0:23:43.160 --> 0:23:46.120 to cost five million dollars. Of course, that's a lot 0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.360 of money here, but over there, where the annual income 0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:53.960 is less than one thousand dollars, seemed impossible. One day, 0:23:54.000 --> 0:23:58.840 an older German Man with his wife visited Botswana. They 0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:01.320 fell in love with the peace. They wanted to do 0:24:01.400 --> 0:24:05.879 something to help. When they returned home, they googled Botswana 0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:10.280 orphanages and my friend's organization came up. It's called the 0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:14.760 Love Botswana Outreach. He contacted my friend and sent him 0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:17.879 a twenty thousand dollars donation. A little later he sent 0:24:17.960 --> 0:24:21.119 him a three hundred thousand dollars donation. My friend was 0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:24.359 overwhelmed and very grateful. He said he was coming to 0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:27.440 visit them. He and his wife stayed at this real 0:24:27.560 --> 0:24:32.560 nice safari resort about fifteen miles from my friend's complex. 0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:35.480 One morning, my friend drove to the resort to pick 0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:38.719 them up. The owner of the resort said to my friend, 0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:41.800 the resort is for sale. Would you like to buy it? 0:24:42.480 --> 0:24:46.120 He thought my friend was a wealthy businessman. They're on vacation. 0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:49.119 He kind of laughed and said, now I'm a missionary. 0:24:49.200 --> 0:24:52.399 I live down the road. The German man overheard the 0:24:52.480 --> 0:24:55.919 conversation asked my friend to find out how much it was. 0:24:56.400 --> 0:24:59.280 He got him the information, thought he was going to 0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:02.359 buy it for him self, but the man bought the 0:25:02.440 --> 0:25:05.960 luxury resort and gave it to my friend to use 0:25:06.000 --> 0:25:11.439 for their outreach. They were astonished. The man came to 0:25:11.480 --> 0:25:14.359 their complex to visit. He saw the plans for the 0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:17.480 new youth center asked how much it was. My friend 0:25:17.520 --> 0:25:20.520 said five million dollars. He said, don't worry, I'll send 0:25:20.560 --> 0:25:24.000 you a check. A few years later, they dedicated the 0:25:24.040 --> 0:25:28.639 Big Youth Center totally debt free. What was that? A 0:25:28.800 --> 0:25:33.560 net breaking blessing, something that they didn't see coming. God 0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:37.080 knows how to get you into overflow. He had that 0:25:37.160 --> 0:25:40.800 one man come across their path. You don't need everybody 0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:43.320 to be for you, You just need the right people to 0:25:43.359 --> 0:25:47.400 be for you. God has already lined up these divine 0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:52.840 connections that will help you fulfill your purpose. Psalm sixty 0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:57.440 five says God will crown the year with a bountiful harvest. 0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:03.439 Even the hard places will overflow with abundance. This overflow 0:26:03.800 --> 0:26:06.639 is not just to reach your dreams, not just to 0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:10.040 go further. But you're going to see overflow in the 0:26:10.080 --> 0:26:14.960 hard places. Maybe you're facing an illness, you're taking the treatment, 0:26:15.400 --> 0:26:18.680 or you're raising a difficult child that is not going 0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:22.879 to defeat you. You're about to overflow with strength, overflow, 0:26:22.920 --> 0:26:29.000 with healing, overflow with victory. Perhaps you're struggling with depression, anxiety, 0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:33.000 fear that is not your destiny. You're about to overflow 0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:38.240 with joy overflow. With peace, overflow with favor in the 0:26:38.400 --> 0:26:43.080 hard places. God promised, you're going to overflow with abundance. 0:26:43.480 --> 0:26:46.960 That means you're not going to lack anything that you need. 0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:50.240 You're going to have plenty of grace, plenty of joy, 0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:53.520 plenty of favor. When my father went to be with 0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:57.160 the Lord back in nineteen ninety nine, we had been 0:26:57.200 --> 0:27:00.679 the best of friends. We traveled the world together. I 0:27:00.720 --> 0:27:04.240 worked with him every day for many years. Now, all 0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:07.560 of a sudden, he was gone. It was such a shock. 0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:09.879 I didn't know how I was going to be able 0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:13.280 to handle it. But from the moment my mother called 0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:16.320 me at two in the morning and said my father 0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:19.280 had just had a heart attack, that he was unconscious, 0:27:19.320 --> 0:27:23.520 that the paramedics were coming. I should have been panicked, upset, 0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:27.240 stressed out, but I felt as calm as can be. 0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:31.240 It was supernatural. When I saw the paramedics trying to 0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:35.040 revive my father, I wasn't falling apart. I had a 0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:38.679 peace that I can't explain. And yes, I mourned the 0:27:38.720 --> 0:27:41.560 loss of my father. I still miss him, but I 0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:44.680 was amazed at how I was able to make it through. 0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:48.920 It wasn't nearly as difficult as I thought that's because 0:27:49.440 --> 0:27:53.080 in the hard times, the God of overflow is still 0:27:53.160 --> 0:27:56.800 right there with you, giving you an abundance of everything 0:27:56.880 --> 0:28:01.359 that you need. The scripture says an Ama, the day 0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:07.800 is coming where everything bearing and fruitless will overflow with blessing. 0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:12.160 This passage was written many years ago. I don't believe 0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:15.320 the day is coming. I believe the day is here. 0:28:16.200 --> 0:28:20.200 Whatever is bearing in your life, whatever area you've been 0:28:20.280 --> 0:28:24.680 lacking in, God is saying you're about to overflow with blessings. 0:28:25.200 --> 0:28:30.600 Overflow with good health, overflow with joy, overflow in your finances. 0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:34.920 You are coming out of lack into abundance. I believe 0:28:35.040 --> 0:28:37.840 and declare it's going to be an overflow year for 0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:41.960 you. You're about to be bursting at the seams. You're about 0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:46.280 to see net breaking blessings, promotion that you can't contain, 0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:50.880 increase that catapults you to a new level. I declare 0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:53.920 it in Jesus' name. If you receive it, can you 0:28:53.960 --> 0:28:58.960 save in today? We never like to close our broadcast 0:28:59.240 --> 0:29:02.880 without giving you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord 0:29:03.000 --> 0:29:06.240 of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, 0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:12.200 Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. 0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:16.920 I'll make you my Lord and savior.
