Goodness Overload

Living in the Goodness of God – Part 10

 

“The Lord is my Shepard I have everything I need. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in the right paths for his name’s sake. Even when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me! Your Rod & your Staff ,comfort me. You prepare a banquet for me in front of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil, and my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever!”  Psalm 23

 

How do you approach life?

 

1) A scarcity mindset: I never have enough & I never will. 

This point of view: My ____________________________ resources

 

2) A Surplus mindset: God has more than I will ever need This point of view: God’s ___________________________ resources   

 

“my Cup” is a metaphor for ________________________

 

“I am the holy God, who rescues you. For your own good, I teach you, and I lead you along the right path.  How I wish that you had obeyed my commands! Then your success and good fortune would have overflowed like a flooding river!”  Isaiah 48:17-18 (CEV)

 

* ___________________ opens the _____________________ for overflow  

 

Experiencing a life of overflow

 

1) Stay  ______________________ to  ______________________ everyday

 

Jesus: “If you stay connected to me and my words remain in you, you may ask any request you like, and it will be granted! My true disciples produce much fruit. This brings glory to my Father . . . So, stay connected to my love. You stay connected to my love when you obey me . . . I’ve told you this so that you’ll be filled with my joy. Yes, your cup of joy will overflow!”        John 15:7-11 

 

2) Stop __________________________ & start being _______________________

 

“In everything you do, stay away from complaining and arguing...” Philippians 2:14

 

“Let your lives overflow with thanksgiving for all God has done.”   Colossians 2:7 

 

“No matter what happens, always be thankful, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.”  1 Thessalonians 5:18  

 

 

3) Stop ___________________________ & start being _____________________

 

“It’s healthy to be content, but envy will eat you up.”  Proverbs 14:30 

 

“It is better to be content with what you have than to always be struggling for more. That is like chasing the wind.”   Ecclesiastes 4:6 

 

4) Stop __________________________& start being ________________________

 

“Remember this: A stingy planter will only reap a small crop. But anyone who sows generously will also reap generously. So, each of you should give serious consideration to what you want to give God, not reluctantly or under pressure, for God loves a cheerful giver. And you can be sure that God is able to bless you with all his grace, so that in all things, at all times, you will always have all you need, and you’ll also overflow so you can give to every good work.”  2 Corinthians 9:6-8 

 

Jesus: “If you give, you will receive back. Your gift will be returned to you in full measure, packed down and shaken to make room for more, and ru. Whatever measure you use in giving—large or small—it will be used to measure whatever is given back to you.” Luke 6:38
