I hadn’t even touched it. While I was working on the first strap, it had just been lying there on the ground beside me. I hadn’t even been thinking about it, yet it had been responding to my faith the whole time. It had gotten fixed by the overflow!
I realize that might seem like a mundane example, but according to the Bible the same principle will work in more eternally significant matters. It will work to undo the knots the devil has tied in people’s lives. It will produce for us the same kind of spiritual overflow it produced in the early Church when, as Acts 5 says:
By the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one (verses 12, 15-16).
I want you to see this! I want you to get a greater revelation of how the overflow works and be prepared for it all the time, because the same God, who was in those early apostles and in Peter, is now living inside you. His mercy and goodness are in you. His love and power are in you. His grace and His Anointing are in you.
Purpose right now to give yourself to those divine forces. Practice letting them flow out of you by being kind and good and merciful to people. Declare every morning by faith, “I give myself to the compassion and Anointing of God today. I give myself to healing and to the gifts of the Spirit. I give myself to the Father of mercies and the God of all BLESSING, so He can pour out His mercies and BLESSINGS through me.”
Keep building your faith for it. Keep training yourself in it. Keep opening the floodgates wider and wider so you can live more in the overflow every day! V
