The Good Life Is Yours
Genesis 1:26-28; 3 John 2

John 10: 10 "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."" Abundant life is God's intent for Man. God never gives in trickles; He always gives in abundance. In the beginning, after God had finished the creation of the heavens and the earth, He made Man king over all the earth to enjoy the abundance of all created things (Gen.1:26-28). What a sheer display of unparalleled benevolence and trust! However, Man betrayed God's trust by going against His Word. The consequence of this ugly act was the fall of Man from the realm of "more than enough"" to that of "not enough"". Due to God's benevolent loving-kindness, He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to get Man back into that abundant life. Jesus came into the world, He suffered for us, He was crucified for us and He died for us and was raised from the dead to restore us back to the glorious life of abundance. Beloved, every man in Christ has free access to abundant life. This abundant life is beyond what you can exhaust; it is inexhaustible. It is the life that blesses and makes a blessing; it is the overwhelming, overflowing life. There is health, wealth, grace, favour, help, breakthrough, (name it), in Christ Jesus for the taking. Go for the abundant life! It is yours now! Refuse to take anything less! Let your faith be stirred up for the abundant life. See it with the eyes of your spirit. Hit the launch pad and go for it. It is available for all in Christ Jesus. This is the good life that God has prepared for us. Go for it.

Other Scriptures for Meditation: 1 Timothy 6:17; Ephesians 1:3

My Solid Front (Confession)
In the Name of Jesus, I declare that I partake of the good life in Christ therefore I walk in health, wealth and favour. AMEN.
