Word of the Day

Be responsible with the blessings I give you. You are blessed to be a blessing, to give as it is given, and to impart as it is imparted. I am so excited and full of pleasure about all you are going to experience. As your Father, I am ecstatic. I give you blessings of wisdom, prosperity, discernment and all other things to further the Kingdom. I give you life and life more abundant in all areas: spirituality, physically, emotionally, relationally, and financially (John 10:10). Success is the fruit of all you turn your hand to when submitted to Me. You are prospering as your soul prospers (3 John 1:2).

I am not a stingy God; after all, I gave My most prized possession to be able to say all these things to you. I am not a withholding God and I have given you every key you need to open the floodgates of heaven. In giving My most prized possession, Jesus, all is accomplished. He died to give it all: the entire Kingdom, all abundant life, all wisdom, all knowledge, all healing, all success, all favor, and everything you need to fulfill who I am in you.

Lack shall not dominate your life in any area, from the small to the great. I am abundance and when you have Me, you have abundance. Therefore, you cannot lack if you have Me. How can you teach others about abundance if you do not know or understand it yourself? Contentment and abundance go together. Without contentment the rest is not possible for you will never have enough if you do not walk with a satisfied and grateful heart for what you do have (Philippians 4:7).  Your definition of abundance is based on your level of contentment. And contentment is based on who and what you say I am. Think on this…Read Complete Love Letter…

And God’s peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 Amplified)

Prayer

Father, you have blessed me to be a blessing and I will give as You have given to me. Every aspect of my heart and life are touched by You. I receive Your wisdom and discernment in every area of my life. May I love wisdom and cherish its great work in my life. All I turn my hand to in You is successful. You are not stingy and gave me eternal life in Jesus to prove it. I am Your abiding place, a temple of Your presence. My heart is not greedy and is content with whatever situation I find myself in, for I trust in your goodness to me. You never leave or forsake me; therefore, I have all abundance. You are more than enough. Amen

Reflect and Journal

1. Has lack in any area seemed to dominate your life? Reassess what is important and of greatest value. Start with a grateful heart and move on from there.

2. What does your level of contentment say about who and what you believe He is?
