Overflow!
Recently I was listening to a message on CD and the speaker exhorted the listener to spend time with God regularly and resist the temptation to minister "on empty." I realized that I had put "all these things" first instead of "seeking first the Kingdom of God..." (Matthew 6:33) So I stopped the CD, told the Lord that I was sorry for neglecting my time with Him and went to the piano to sing to the Lord and worship.
I sensed His strong Presence and refreshing and I kept hearing and singing the word "overflow...overflow." There was such a flow of the Holy Spirit, a supernatural confidence enveloped me. I felt like King David must have when he said "By my God I can run through a troop and leap over a wall!"
The answer is so easy... He is my portion, my delight, my strength, my source. I don't seek Him for all those things- when I enjoy the Lord those things, like ministry opportunities, just come naturally- or should I say supernaturally!
So thank You for your patience Lord when I take matters into my own hands, remind me quickly to delight in You! Thank you for the amazing River of Life, the Holy Spirit. I want to drink deeply from the River, swim in the River, play in the River and let the River of God overflow me and refresh others In Jesus Name!
Enjoy this track from a song-to-be released instrumental project. The song is called: "The Living River."
Godrest and Godspeed,
