Jesus Said John 10:10 New King James Version (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

What Is Abundant Life? To have an abundance of something is to have more than you need. It's often used to describe positive qualities, such as "an abundance of love." Abundance is the opposite of scarcity. An abundance of wealth is a ton of cash.

How do you live an abundant life? Have abundance mentality. ... Be grateful for what you have. ... Smile. ... Start your days right. ... Prepare yourself for opportunities. ... Make the most out of every opportunity.

“abundant” in the Greek This word is perisson, meaning “exceedingly, very highly, beyond measure, more, superfluous, a quantity so abundant as to be considerably more than what one would expect or anticipate.”

Jesus promises us a life far better than we could ever imagine, a concept reminiscent of 1 Corinthians 2:9: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.” The apostle Paul tells us that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, and He does it by His power, a power that is at work within us if we belong to Him (Ephesians 3:20).

New Wine Skins Matthew 9:17 New King James Version (NKJV) 17 Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.” New, Bigger, Better…Lies in our future.

Mark 11:25 Mark 11:25 New King James Version (NKJV) Forgiveness and Prayer 25 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. LEAVE IT BEHIND…

Bury the past Bury the past Quit talking about the past, about past hurts, about past disappointments, even past victories. Holding on to the past anchors you to the past. God has better for us if we let go of the past and press on day by day

You can’t have a scarcity mentality and an abundant life. Proverbs 4:18 New King James Version (NKJV) 18 But the path of the just is like the shining [a]sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.

More than enough We have to adopt an over flow mentality! We must leave not enough mentality behind! We have to have agreement with God’s Word! We must get on God’s page and become more than we can ask or think.

Last thing Hebrews 6:1 New King James Version (NKJV) The Peril of Not Progressing 6 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to [a]perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,
