My Cup Overflows

Psalm 23:5 -

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows

We are not meant to be merely filled. We are meant to overflow. This is radical.

In a world wrought with not-enoughs, or just-enoughs, it's interesting that God's anointing causes our cups to overflow.

The focus is actually not on the overflowing, but on the anointing. I can't stress enough how important it is to wait on that specific timing and specific anointing.

Because when that final puzzle piece fits in place, time no longer has meaning. Things just seem to happen without human initiation.

Praise becomes the only prayer. The only prayer.

Our God is a God of more than enough. A God of not zero to one, but zero to more.

Claim this season now. Claim it beyond your reality, beyond your external circumstances. Dare to believe it into existence.

It is absolutely real. God's power is looking for one person to stand in the gap. To stand up and say, "I want to be used."

Ask, seek, and knock and He will open up the most locked of doors, break down the most hard of iron gates, and level the most tall of mountains.

He will exceed every single time.

My cup overflows.
