Welcome to a brand new and exciting week! I pray you will experience favour and increase this new week in Jesus name!

The Feeding of the 5,000
The blessing of overflow is real and can be experienced by anyone who trusts God. He is unlimited in capacity and relentless to bless us. Regardless of where you are and what you have, you too can experience God’s blessing of overflow.

We have another compelling example of the blessing of overflow as seen in John 6:5-14. Jesus had been speaking to the multitude for a few days and there was a need to feed them. There were 5,000 men (apart from women and children) and they only had a little boy’s meal of five loaves of bread and two fish. To the logical mind, it’s impossible to feed this large number of people with such little resource. However, Jesus took the bread and after giving thanks, a miracle of multiplication was birthed. What was a near impossibility became a reality for with God, all things are possible. If every one of the 5,000 men had just enough to eat, that would have been a miracle in itself but God is not just enough, He is more than enough. In verse 13 of this same scripture, Jesus asked the disciples to gather the remaining fragments after the people were filled and surprisingly the disciples were able to fill 12 baskets!

God is the “over and above God.” Scarcity is man-made but God is more than enough.

When you change your thoughts and beliefs about God’s capacity, your mind will begin to see abundance, but if you think in terms of man’s economy, you may begin to limit the place of divine performance in your life.

It would be worth while to meditate on these scriptural examples and allow the Holy Spirit show you what you need to do to experience the blessing of overflow in your life.

The reality of the blessing of the overflow has made me more aware of certain scriptures that point to God’s capacity to bless me. These scriptures fill my heart with joy. It is God’s will that you walk in divine health and that you prosper in the work of your hands; hold on to His word, keep declaring them over your life and family and you will see them become a reality for you.

God’s plan for the overflow can be readily seen throughout the scriptures. The most amazing thing is that beyond the material or financial blessings, God desires to pour out spiritual blessings on us – His spirit, His unspeakable joy, divine love can be experienced in an overflow capacity.

It is my desire and prayer that you bear fruits in all areas of your life. You must trust God to answer your prayers and meet your needs in ways that are beyond human comprehension. God responds to the names we call Him. Do not be afraid to call on Him as the God of overflow in your life and as you do so, you will walk in that reality!

Have a unique season of overflow!
