Is your bucket filled with blessings?
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"'…My people will be filled with My bounty,' declares the LORD"
Jeremiah 31:14
When I think of being filled, I think of being satisfied. I think of having more than enough to meet my needs so that I can be a blessing to others. But it all starts with our level of expectancy. My question for you today is what are you believing for? What are you expecting? You might say, "Well, Patrick. I don't think I'll ever meet my goals this year with the economy like it is." Or, "I don't think I'll ever get promoted. I'm not that qualified." "I don't think I'll ever get well from my illness." The problem is you're not looking for those good breaks. You're not expecting increase. You're not positioning yourself for God to fill you, and unfortunately, you won't be disappointed.
Jesus said in the scriptures,
"According to your faith it will be done unto you."
Selah people' and friends He might as well have said, "If you've got a cup, I'll fill you with a cup level of blessing. If you've got a bucket, I'll fill you with a bucket level of blessing." But if you'll take the limits off of God and believe for supernatural opportunities, if you'll go out each day expecting far and beyond favor, you won't be disappointed. He will fill you and satisfy you with His goodness and show His favor in ways beyond your wildest dreams! Join me in sharing our high expectations and pushing each other to a place beyond any we expected to achieve. May our work, our relationships, our physical well being be filled to overflowing beyond mediocre, beyond average and reaching into excellence. When we make it there may we not be satisfied but inspired that through Christ we can do so much more and help others along the way.
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father God, thank You for blessing me so that I can be a blessing to others. Today, I choose to open my heart and mind to You and expect that You will fill me with Your bounty. I choose to take the limits off my thinking so that You can have Your way in my life. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
