Alright thank you very much, and hello again dear radio friends. How in the world are you? Oh, as I ask that question I have a mental picture of many of you whom I know personally, and then I realize that there are thousands of others whom I never met and probably will not meet until we get together over on the Glory side. But we’re together by way of radio, this modern miracle of radio, and the gracious provision of people who have made it possible for yours truly, to share the Word of God with you together around the Word. I treasure these times, don’t you? I’ve have just been asking God that He might fill every word of mine with the power and blessing of the Holy Spirit and with the love of God. So many of your hurting and needing a little encouragement. You don’t need somebody to yell at you or scold you-you need somebody to encourage and love you, and that’s the kind of person I want to be.

Well, we’ve been looking at Psalm 23. We came to the end of verse five where the Psalmist said, “My cup runneth over”, and we talked about the different meanings of this figure of speech: the essence of life for good or ill, the need to have the cup clean on the inside, and the blessings of God to us poured out, the judgment of God, a different kind of the cup, the will of God for you. This cup, Jesus spoke of, “Are you able to drink of the cup which I shall drink of”? The will of God for you and then the blessing of God as found in the Presence of the Savior when you sit together with Him at His table. The cup running over. I thought of the matter of how abundantly God deals with us. The Lord Jesus said, “I am come that they might have life and that they might have it MORE abundantly”. Paul said, “God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that ye always having all sufficiency and all things may abound to every good work”. That word abound of course means, just run over, a spillover. The divine spillover of blessing from your life. The Christian life is not a series of dedicated efforts, so much as it is the divine spillover of blessing so great it cannot be contained, it just runs over. Do you know anything about that? It must be admitted that many a dear Christian is still routinely doing certain things that he or she is supposed to do, instead of enjoying the enthusiasm of the overflow of God the Holy Spirit out of a life filled with the Word. Think of all the different abundant things, I have a list of them here: abundant joy. Psalm 36 verse 8, “They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of Thy house and Thou shalt make them drink of the river of Thy pleasures”, abundantly satisfied. The river of Thy pleasures, abundant joy’s, Oh I really can’t tell you, you have to experience it for yourself beloved. But all I can say is, linger in the Presence of your Lord with the words, “Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God”- linger in the presence of your Lord with the Word until He fills your life completely full and you’re spiritually satisfied. Most of us with our laundry list of requests when we pray, and we tell God all the things we want and all the burdens that we have and we go away quickly, without giving Him time to fill our cup to overflowing. It takes time with God for you to be abundantly satisfied. Would you give God a little more time? It doesn’t have to be an hour. Give Him a few more minutes, even when you pray. After you’ve said “amen,” just be still for a while. The Bible says be still and know that I am God. Your consciousness of God’s Presence will be enhanced and amplified and intensified, if you’ll just be still before Him and wait for Him to speak to your heart.
