Life in the Overflow, Part 2: The Blessing of More Than Enough | Dr. Mike Woods | (Edited)

Father, I love you and I thank you. I give you praise today. Thank you for another opportunity to teach your people and to share your word with them. God, I pray in the name of Jesus that by your power and by your authority and by the grace of your anointing, God, God, that you would anoint me to teach the this word and help me to disseminate this word with clarity, with wisdom, with the intellect and the light and the intelligence of the Holy Ghost. And Father, I give you praise, God, that nothing is missing, nothing is broken in my life nor in your people's life. God, I thank you, God, that as we teach this word, lack would be rebuked, God. And God, that just enough and not enough would be rebuked. But God, we will move and transition into overflow, more than enough, God. And God, as we share this, God, may it be shared with such revelation and simplicity that it can be applied. And I give you praise for it. Now I thank you that we won't miss it to the left nor to the right, but God, we will take this word not as just something else taught, but we will take this word as something we can be applied to our life right now, and it literally brings change. In Jesus' name, amen. And thanks be to God. Well, praise the living God! This is Apostle Mike Woods, and yes, welcome to today's edition of Rod on Now. I'm super excited that we have an opportunity today to share the word of the Lord with you. Listen, it's going to be a tremendous blessing today. So I'm challenging you, stay with us, glory to God, and make sure, glory to God, that you do me the favor right now and share this teaching, share this live stream, because I honestly believe as you share it, it's going to be a supernatural blessing to somebody else. So please, ladies and gentlemen, friends and even enemies. Share it, because I promise you, as you bless others, God will respond to your generosity and he will bless you. The Bible says we are blessed to be a blessing. So if these teachings are blessing your life, it is very important— glory to God— that you share it and be a blessing to others. Listen, I am super excited about today's teaching tonight. We're sharing again on Life in the Overflow. If you missed part 1, please go back on the timeline, back on this YouTube page, go back to the previous podcast and listen to that word. I promise you it will be transformative. It will be something, glory to God, that you can use immediately in your life, just like this message tonight. I promise you You're going to be able to use this word immediately and it's going to literally revolutionize your life. Be the year you really want it to be, and it can really manifest anything you want.

But here's the, here's the, here's the catch. You got to do things differently than you did in 2022, and you got to meet the principles that align itself with the statements that you are making. I'm going to say that again.

You got to meet the principles that align themselves with the statements that you, my friends, are making.

I'm going to say that one more time. You got to meet and line up with the principles and the statements. Glory to the name of God. You got to line up with it and you got to do what you have to do so you can see the manifestation of that in your life. Because otherwise you're just going to have the same year you've been having every year, new year coming. But you've got to do something different. You got to take different actions. So my whole purpose in teaching very strategically and deliberately this year is that you will take different actions. You're not going to see different results if you keep doing the same thing. I'm going to say that again.

You are—

that's helping somebody.

I'm working on you already.

You are not going to see different results if you continue to do things the same exact way that you've always done them. You'll never see different results. So listen to me, ladies and gentlemen, I need you to understand, as we teach revelation, as we disseminate heavenly information to you As you open your ear gates, you got to receive it and apply it. Y'all always hear me say information without application is constipation. I'ma say it one more time: information without application is constipation. So you can get all the revelation you, you want, you can read the Bible until you're blue in the face, but if you don't apply the principles, you're never going to be a recipient of the promises of scripture. So the things that I'm teaching, I'm teaching them so you can run out and immediately begin to apply them to your life. So again, the Lord spoke to me and said, son, this is going to be a year of manifested vision and overflow. One, meaning that the vision that God has for your life that he preordained even before you were born, that purpose and plan that he has for you to authentically fulfill, it's going to be manifested to you this year. And some of you've already seen it. So you're going to start seeing the stages and phases of that vision come together if you align with the principle. Some of you have never seen it. So you're going to see a manifestation in revelation of what you should be doing. And then you're going to start seeing the emergence of the tangible manifestation of pieces of it working in your life. But you gotta align yourself with the principle. But then the Lord also said, I'm going to shift my people that will be obedient in faith. I'm going to move them— hear me—

into a place of overflow. And I begin to say, Lord Jesus, if people would just get this, as I've been studying this Glory to God. And opening my mind even the more— I've been teaching this stuff for two decades, but as I open my mind even the more on how corporately, if we grab this, do you know what we could do as kingdom citizens if each one of us began to tap into the overflow and walk out the principles of God as he has ordained them? I need you to grab this, man. I need you to grab this and accept it and receive it. Glory to God. So today we're talking about Life in the Overflow Part 2, and we're calling this The Blessing Is More Than Enough. And we're going to just kind of get into what the blessing is, the blessing of the Lord, and we're going to kind of contrast that to the curse that each one of us are under before we come to Jesus. Glory to the name of God. And I just want to tell you today, I'm gonna say it 100 different ways, but enough—

listen to this— is not enough. I'm gonna say that again: enough is not enough. God really wants us to operate in the realm of more than enough. And more than enough is a real location. It's a real place that you have to transition to. You have to move to it. The Bible says, walk in the spirit. Listen to this. So you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh, the desires of the flesh. So the word walk there means to be deported into. To travel to a location. So to travel to the realm of the spirit so you won't be tempted to fulfill the desires of the flesh. The flesh is weak. Listen to me. And carnality is what every human was groomed in. The Bible said we were born in sin and shaping in iniquity. So we're prone to gravitate to the world's way of living. The world's way of doing things. And let me tell you something, in my own personal life, every time I've had lack, every time I've had failure, is because I chose to gravitate to the lust of my flesh and do things the way I thought they should be done versus tapping into God's way, being deported there, living there, and walking in the spirit all the time. And that's not walking around spooky with your eyes closed and can't mutter, uh, linguistics on a natural level. This is actually living a life and adjusting your lifestyle to a way of living— hear me— that, whoo, that cannot be controlled by flesh in no way. That this actually becomes your way of living, which means you don't bounce back and forth from spirit living to flesh living. You don't lean in the spirit and trust in the spirit one day, and then the next day you back to trusting in your flesh and how your flesh operates and calculates your life. So you got to choose your way of living, and God says, I have a way and a place that I want you to move into that's a realm of reality called more than enough. Oh boy, oh my, this— listen, God doesn't want us to live beneath our heavenly heritage another day. I dare you, touch yourself, type it in the comments and say this, say God doesn't want me to live another day beneath— Lord have mercy— my heritage. I need you to grab that. He doesn't want— type it in the comments, please— he don't want you to live another day beneath your heritage of more than enough. I dare you, type again: more than enough is mine. Come on, type it in the comments, ladies and gentlemen. More than enough is mine. It belongs to you. Glory be to God. Woo! Shete bantsé, briska tabá. He doesn't want you to live beneath your heritage another day. Oh, I, I got to get into this, man.

So it's time to get in the overflow, and daily, weekly, monthly, perpetually receive the blessings that overflow brings. Lord Jesus, help us, help us.

So let's look at this. Let's look at Galatians 3:13, all right? Because I want you to be clear that the curse is never enough.

And some of you are believers, and I hate to serve notice to you today.

You're a believer, but you're still living under the curse because you've chosen to be religious in your approach to God. In other words, you believe God on Sunday. Yeah. You believe God in a religious sense when it's convenient for you to believe God, but you don't trust him daily. So you operate under principles that are connected to— hear me—

the curse. And listen, that's not God's will. So let's read Galatians 3:13 really quickly.

It says, and I'm reading from the Amplified, Christ purchased our freedom, redeeming us from the curse, the doom of the law. I want to submit to you today that the word law can be interchanged with the word religion. Because religion and law are both structures that are legalistic in nature, that have patterns and routines in place in search for God or heaven. Most people who operate under the curse have an escapism mentality. They're living to get out of the earth, to get to heaven, and that's never was God's plan. God wants to literally bring heaven to us while we're on the earth. Hear me, hear me good, man, hear me good. God literally wants to bring heaven to us while we are on the earth. It's not his will, it's not his plan. Listen to me, that we live with this escapism mentality, with our bags packed, ready to go to heaven anyhow. Come on, waiting for Jesus to break the sky. Lord have mercy. And we're missing God.

We're missing the Lord.

We're missing his plan.

We're missing his doing. He says he has redeemed us from the curse of the law, the doom of the law, and his condemnation by himself becoming a curse for us.

Listen, for it is written in the scripture, curses is everyone who hangs on the tree or is crucified.

So let's get into this really quick, right?

So reading this, we understand Christ bought us back.

He redeemed us. Galatians 13 makes it clear through his death on the cross. You're not going to be able to grab any of this, right, if you buy into the lies that preachers are even telling now that Jesus never really died on a cross and that he never really was resurrected. Reality is, that's history. That, my friends, happened for real. So you gotta accept that reality, that that actually happened, that actually took place, right?

So your redemption is real. Cursed is he that hangs on the tree. So every curse over your life was nailed to the cross with Jesus, but you got to believe that and you got to receive it. Now there's 3 things. There's a threefold curse of the law, and I want to share, share them with you really quick. So because I got to make a contrast between the blessing and the curse. Most people are operating under the curse, and when I give you these 3 things, you're going to see that even those that are in the church, those that call themselves believers, they're actually operating under the curse. Oh my God. 3-fold. One is spiritual death. So when you're living under the curse, you're literally spiritually dead. Again, you could be religious and spiritually dead. You can go to church every Sunday, you can sing in the choir, you can serve on the usher board, you can serve as a missionary, you can serve— glory to the name of God— as a deacon or even the pastor and be spiritually dead. Because to be spiritually dead means that you are separated from God. Because I need you to be clear, there are a whole lot of churchgoers and religious folk who are separated from God. They are very active in the church. They love their church. They love their pastor. They enjoy being a member. Then they— I mean, a membership is everything to them. And you got some people that's a member of a church simply because they mama, they grandmama, the great-great-grandmama was a member of that church. So they won't change their membership. But that's a religious act. Because all of this time that membership has done nothing for them but introduce them to a way of searching for God that is ineffective. And, and guess what? From time to time, religious people have encounters with God because God will, in his grace and mercy, show up in the service, but it never spills over to a lifestyle because that person is spiritually dead and they don't understand how to develop a relationship with God through prayer, through his word, through lifestyle, through worship that— hallelujah— is literally deporting them into a heavenly realm where they sit in heavenly places and actually know God. There are a group of people that even speak in tongues real good They, they can look the part, they raise their hands, they can sing great worship songs, fall on the floor, glory to God, and still spiritually dead because they're disconnected from Abba. They're really disconnected from their Heavenly Father. And watch this, when you're spiritually dead, it breaks spiritual continuity. Spiritual dead people, or spiritually dead people, cannot operate in the realm of continuity, which means continuity is an extension of heaven through you, which means you have the inability to continue the activities of heaven on earth because you're disconnected from the— oh my God— King of Heaven, the Father of Heaven. Oh my goodness, it's not funny, but it's, it's hilarious to me that there are so many people that really believe they're operating in this realm and they're not. They really honestly think because they had an experience at church— and I'm learning, man, I've been walking in spiritual things longer than most of you been alive— but the reality is, let me tell you something, I'm coming to understand that It's more dangerous to be religiously deceived in a charismatic house. That's a tongue-talking, drum-beating, worshiping, flow-in, falling-in-the-flow house. And you get that experience in the house and it doesn't carry over into continuity. Spiritual death is a part of the curse. 'Cause I'ma tell you something, you need to know God, hear me, outside of church. And you need to have continuity that it spills over into everything you do. Secondly, living under the curse, hallelujah, is sickness and death. Can I tell you something, man? It is not God's will for you to be sick in your body.

That is under the curse.

Everything bad is under the curse. Sickness is bad. Cancer ain't of God. And we gotta stop putting that on God. Glory to God. It's God's will. It's God's plan. That's a religious way of thinking, making you feel like you gotta make excuses for God. No, God's plan is that you prosper and be in health. Here we go. Even as your soul has continuity. Even as your soul prospers, even as your soul continues heavenly lifestyle, heavenly living, continues to be connected to God. Your soul is your mind, your will, and your emotions. So your soul-ical man, your mind, your will, your emotions, where you hear, where you see, where you talk, where you taste, where you feel, glory, your intellectual ability, hallelujah, has to continue to be subject Oh, to God, my God, today have mercy, Jesus.

Have mercy, Jesus. Help us today, God, to operate in continuity. Help us to operate how you want us to operate. Help us to see how you want us to see, Lord.

Ela banso rabo kus gadai. In the name of Jesus.

So sickness and disease is a part of the curse.

So anytime sickness comes to your body, whether it's me or you, we should immediately rebuke it, bring it under the blessing, and make it aware that it is illegal to dwell in our body. Listen, pain is illegal in your body. We just read it because Jesus redeemed you from the curse. He nailed sickness to the cross. Oh my God, disease should not live in your body. He nailed it to the cross.

Number 3. This is 3, 4. I gotta, I gotta move. I got a lot to cover. The third, um, curse of the law or religion is this: poverty, lack, and debt. It is not God's will for you to live in poverty, for you to live in lack, for you to live in debt. And if you are in debt up to your neck, and if you are in poverty, and if you're walking around with lack, you are operating under the curse, and it is not God's plan for your life.

What is the curse?

The curse is a declaration over your life that dooms you to buy into poverty. That dooms you to live in lack, that dooms you to live in debt.

You know, most people live under poverty because they bought into the declaration, and this is even in scripture, the poor shall be with you always. Religious people will tell you that applies to you, but that's what wasn't— that wasn't Jesus's statement. Jesus was saying those that are poor are those that have not received the kingdom, that have not seen God, that are not moving in continuity. Poverty is not for the kingdom citizen. It's not for the believer. It's a— this— listen, the curse of religion and law will have you believing that you're supposed to live from paycheck to paycheck, that you're supposed to rob Peter to pay Paul. That you're supposed to wonder how you're going to supply need for your family, that you're supposed to wonder how you're going to leave an inheritance to your children's children when God has made everything available to us that pertains to life and godliness, and that we should live life and enjoy life abundantly. I dare you, touch yourself. And type it in the comments and say, it is not God's will for me to live under the curse, nor is it his will for me to live in poverty. Say this, say, if I align with the blessing of more than enough, glory to God, my life will be poverty-free forever. Come on, say it again. Say, if my life would align itself with more than enough, I need you to declare it, I will be free from poverty forever.

Ooh, free from poverty forever. I like that.

I like forever. Oh, I like forever. Good God Almighty, that means you'll never have it again, but you gotta transition.

Listen, this curse is a declaration of doom to poverty. Listen, when you're living under this curse, you never have enough. When you're living under this curse, you're always in a deficit. You're always behind.

And you just might as well accept the truth. If you're behind, you're under the curse, because that's not how God operates. That's not how the blessing works. If you're deficient, you're under the curse.

Listen, I'm Apostle every day of the week, man.

I just want to help you. I just want to release this government into your life.

Glory to God.

Listen, you always got inadequate supply. You always got insufficient funds, not enough to cover the need. Listen, if it's bad, if it's frustrating, if it's depressing, if it's causing anxiety and worry, I want you to know it's not God's way of living. You are under the curse. That does not belong to you.

Hallelujah!

Type that in the comments: insufficient funds doesn't belong to me. Deficiency doesn't belong to me. Inadequate supply doesn't belong to me. You need to declare it out of your mouth. Lack doesn't belong to me. Sickness and disease doesn't belong to me. You know what that's a result of? It's a result of you living in your own ways, and you got to choose the way of the supernatural. You got to choose God's way of living. Let's get some word. Deuteronomy 28 and 29. I'm working on you today. I'm working on you because I want you to get from not enough, from enough, to more than enough, to operating in the realm where El Shaddai— I didn't say El Shaddai, I said El Shaddai, the God that's more than enough, the breasted one that nourishes and supplies what we need. How can you be so deep and wonderful floating and in the spirit claim you're with El Shaddai and don't receive his supernatural resources and provision. Oh God. And provision.

How? I'm waiting on your answer. I'm waiting.

How? How?

How?

He loves— listen, I buy the best things for my children.

Glory to God.

I bless my children this year. I mean, the things that I love, I buy for them.

You know, glory to God, I'm not going to be walking around here and things I like and don't give them things that are similar to that or equal to it because I'm their daddy.

Glory to God. And what more would my heavenly Father do for me where he has way more resources than I do?

Lord, y'all not here. Y'all don't want to hear this, right?

It's the truth anyhow, whether you want to hear it or not. It's the truth anyway. Glory to God. Deuteronomy 28:29, listen to this Amplified. It says, you shall not prosper in your ways. I'mma say that again. You shall not prosper in your ways. In other words, your way of living has no ability to create heavenly continuity in your life, that you continue again in the resources and ways of heaven as a human on earth. If you keep doing things your way, If you continue to view life your way, there is no way on earth, oh, you're going to see the promise manifesting in your life the way it should be. And I decree and declare today, glory to God, that you and I— hear this— have been delivered from the curse of never enough. I decree and declare that you and I have been delivered from the curse of just enough. And I declare today that you and I live in the realm of more than enough. You ought to receive it. And wherever you are right now, I dare you clap your hands and give God praise for more than enough. I dare you thank him now that you're transitioning from not enough, from just enough, to the realm— hear me— of more than— more than enough.

Glory to God.

I release it on you today. I release it on you right now in the name of Jesus. I declare, like, she amma, Urianda la bosienda la cosia. Yes, God. Iansota la bosienda ba ki brisca ta. Yeah, God, I hear that. I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, I dare you lift your hands right where you are, receive this prophetic word. Listen, I heard the Lord say to— he said, Michael, tell my people, he said, I am delivering them from shortages. He said to tell them, I am delivering them from the spirit of shortage and every area where they've been short and had shortages. He said, tell them I'm about to fill them up to the overflow. Glory to the name of God. All they must do is align themselves, oh my God, by faith with my way of living, with my way of doing things. There shall be no more shortage, there shall be no more shortage of finance. There shall be no— oh shit— there shall be no more shortage of health. There shall be no more shortage of love in their life. Let them know I am releasing opportunity. I am releasing customers in their business. I am opening wide doors for today, said the Lord. I am eliminating the shortage. I dare you type in the comments and receive that word. As a sign you receive the word, type it in the comments: all my shortages have been eliminated. Come on, type it again. All of my shortages, oh my God, have been eliminated. I dare you declare it. There is no more shortage. All you got to do is align yourself with the word of God. Receive this and move by faith. God says the release is already happening right now. Matter of fact, she told— I just looked at heaven's shipping department and there are packages marked sent, and they are on the way to your life. God said, I've already sent it, it's already on the way. Receive it now. Glory to God. In the name of Jesus. Woo! Shatalabasé, briskelemandolobokoshiandá. Yes, God, I thank you.

Woo!

Shandolobokosha. Yes, Jesus. Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Ribansatabakori ansa. Yes, Jesus. Hallelujah. Glory to God. Thank you, Lord. Brisca la mandolo, boshi. Woo!

See, listen, God says he's about to overwhelm you. I'm trying to move, but he says, I'm about to overwhelm you with blessings and with goodness.

Hear it. He says, I'm about to overwhelm you with my blessings and with my goodness. He says, all I need you to do is believe it. All I need you to do, said the Lord, is receive it, because I am getting ready to overwhelm you.

Just lift your hands and receive it. I decree and declare that you be overwhelmed now in the name of Jesus. Listen, see, when you think about this thing, man, When it comes to an overflow of all good things and God eliminating shortages, when you just think about it, just think about this as reality, I'm telling you right now, God's about to do this. And when you think about the overflow of good things, oh my God, what comes next?

When you got that on your mind, what's the afterthought of that? Joy. You have no choice but to have joy when you think about the overflow of all things. But if you lend your mind to the bad stuff, to the, to the stuff found in the curse, liman sorobokuskiaya, sickness, disease, pain, brokenness, lack, Fear of provision, that's all under the curse. But when you choose to think on the goodness of Jesus, oh my God, oh my God, and all that he can do and will do and has done, you have no choice but to shout glory to God, to shout hallelujah, glory to the name of God, and to move and live in joy. And you know what, if you live in joy The Bible says the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Woo!

Shabat ansia ye korea ansa. And guess what? Strength means power to stand, power to conquer anything. So joy gives you the ability to conquer any obstacle, anything in front of you, and withstand any storm.

So just think about the overflow.

I'm telling you right now, I pray you receive that prophetic word, man. God says he's eliminating shortage.

Receive it in the name of Jesus.

There's nothing to be sad about. Move in joy.

Glory to God. So hold your head up and receive overflow. Hold your head up and receive the flow in the name of Jesus. Oh my God, oh my God, receive it.

Wait a minute, I got, I got to go, I got to go. Let me, let me move, let me, because I can stay right here in this flow, man. Glory to God. But I got to teach you, I want to teach you how to get this blessing of more than enough.

See, see, the blessing of more than enough indeed is a blessing. All right, we read Galatians 3:13.

Let's read it. Galatians 3:14.

Let's read it.

I got my text right here. I got it right here. Let's read it. Galatians 3:14 in the NIV says these words. It says, he redeemed us— listen— in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus. Wait a minute, so Jesus died on the cross not just that we can get saved and escape earth and go to heaven. That's— that wasn't the reason. Glory to God. He redeemed us so that the blessing, the declaration, the decree that God spoke over Abraham and his descendants— watch this— would come to the Gentiles, you and I, through Christ Jesus. So once we receive Christ Jesus, oh my God, the blessing of Abraham, hear me, is given to us as well.

I dare you, touch yourself and say, I'm one of them. Touch yourself, say it, say, I'm one of them. I'm one of them. I'm one of them.

Yeah, touch yourself and say, I'm one of them.

I am one of them. I'm one of them.

I'm one of them.

You are descendant of Abraham.

You are Gentile.

And through Jesus Christ, you take on this inheritance of more than enough, the blessing of Abraham.

Ooh-wee. Through Christ Jesus, so that by faith, hear this—

we might receive the promise of the Spirit. So threefold blessing of Abraham, let's go. So the curse is the total opposite of the curse.

The curse was—

the first curse of the law was spiritual death. Well, the blessing of Abraham is spiritual life. So through Christ, we got an opportunity to tap really into the realm of reality of the spirit and know God for real.

This is our key. This is our parsonage in Greek, or access. It's through the blessing. See, the death on the cross again was not just Jesus doing an efficacious, vicarious, substitutionary, redemptive act to get us in heaven, to keep us out of hell. It wasn't just that. It was— hear me—

that we might access, have parsonage into the kingdom of God.

Glory to Jesus! Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! And experience the kingdom for real.

And again, not just that we could live in the kingdom and rest in his lap, but when we emerge from our time with him, there could be a continuity of that space that flows out of us in overflow into the world.

Ah, God.

Spiritual life.

Threefold blessing of Abraham.

Number one, spiritual life. Number two, healing and divine health. With his stripes nailed to the cross, we are healed.

So when he shed blood and we got redeemed from sin, with our sin being forgiven, we were also— that's, that's the whole part of salvation. Salvation in Greek is soteria, the doctrine of soteriology, which is salvation or rescue. Deals with the idea that God doesn't just rescue us from sin, but he rescues us from sickness and disease. He rescues us from poverty. So in Christ, I have a right to be healed. So when you get sick, your first order of business should be to declare that with his stripes you are healed. To speak to your body and say, pain cannot dwell in my body because Jesus bore my pain. Your first line of duty should be to accept heaven's protocol.

Oh, I hear you saying, well, God gives us common sense and he gave us doctors and he uses the doctors. I believe he can use a doctor, and I believe the doctor mind can be anointed. Glory to the name of God. To solve problems in your body. But most of the time, doctors temporarily patch up your issues by giving you internal medication that causes another problem anyway. That's a whole nother message for another day. But listen to me, your first line of— I'm a witness that God can heal you of high blood pressure. When my doctors told me, you'll have high blood pressure all your life and you'll be taking medicine all your life, I'm a witness God can heal you of diabetes.

I'm a witness, glory to the name of God, that God can heal you of COVID I had COVID like 3 times, and I know for a fact twice. A third time I didn't even take, take a test. I just decreed and declared, with his stripes I was healed. Glory to God! Because God has strength and victory over these diseases.

He can heal the blind man, he can heal the deaf.

I've seen him do I prayed for deaf people, little children who were deaf from birth that hear perfectly now. I prayed for children that were born blind and now they see, because the blessing brings healing, man.

It brings access to healing and deliverance. I've cast out demons that people were carrying in their life, and that's because of the blessing.

That adds no sorrow, that makes rich.

Glory to God. Ah, so spiritual life, healing, and divine health, which means when you walk under the blessing, you should be walking under the kingdom healthcare plan, and sickness has no authority to live in your body. And every time sickness and disease shows up in your body, it's a part of the curse. And you need to immediately rebuke it because it's illegal. It shouldn't be there because you are a child of the King. And number 3, this is one of the blessings of Abraham: prosperity, abundant provision, and overflow. So when God put that on Abraham and say, I'm gonna multiply you and your seed as the stars of heaven and as the dust of the ground that it cannot be numbered, 'And that your prosperity, Abraham, would be great.' It's on you too.

He wants to bless you and your children. He wants you to live in this realm of overflow where you lack no thing, where you don't have a care.

Glory to God, because Jesus took care of your lack. Hallelujah.

You have cast your care upon him according to the word, and he cares for you.

This is how he wants you to live.

Let's go to Genesis 1:28. I'm almost through. The Bible says, and God blessed them and said to them, listen to me, be fruitful and multiply, increase and replenish the earth and subdue it and have dominion over every living thing. Now, our whole ministry is based in this scripture. He said, have dominion on the earth, but dominion can't happen until you follow the process. First of all, you gotta receive the declaration of the blessing. And God blessed them. The word blessed there is amar in Hebrew, and it literally means that God established law and God established spiritual position with him. So God blessed them. He set this as a kingdom law of blessing. He marked them, watch this, with an indwelt quality to operate in blessing. And God, Amar in Hebrew, blessed them. He marked them with an indwelt quality. He declared it out of his mouth. Just touch yourself, say, I'm blessed. Say, I'm one of them.

Glory to God.

I need you to say, I am one of them. He blessed them and said, be fruitful. Hallelujah. Not unfruitful. And multiply. What happens is we are multiplying unfruitfulness. Another message for another day. But listen, you got to understand, God never called you to multiply unfruitfulness. Even the things you deem as fruitful, there is not real fruit unless it's born out of the seed God gave you to sow. There's an authentic gift and ability that you came from heaven with. There's continuity again, that you should be sowing into the earth. Hallelujah. That bring forth heavenly fruit out of your life, and you should be multiplying that.

Not what, what you came up with, not that gift that you figured out you could do and you sold it and now you multiplying it. It's not real fruitfulness. He said fruitfulness here is, uh, watch this, uh, bahar in Greek, which is the word for fruitfulness, or bara in Greek, is the seed that's ordained. It's the authentic seed to produce after God's kind.

So there inside of that seed is housed, hallelujah, the vision for your life. You sow that seed in the places it should be sown it will emerge, come forth as fruit. You multiply that.

Glory to God.

Then he says that to multiply, that's to increase it, make it better, move it into overflow, replenish the earth with it, subdue it, have dominion. Rada, take control, take authority in that area. Every one of you have a rada, a dominion mandate on your life. And with that Rada Dominion mandate, it has to be discovered. Your Rada place, your Rada mandate, your dominion assignment, it is never your decision, but it is always your discovery. I'm going to say that one more time. Your Rada assignment is never your decision, but it is always your discovery. And you have to spend enough time in the realm of the spirit again, in worship, in prayer, in close proximity to your King so he can reveal to you the Rada assignment. The Rada assignment was created in a place called Yada. Yada is found in Jeremiah 1:5. You cannot have Rada without Yada. Jeremiah 1:5 says, before I formed you in the belly, I knew you. The word yada in Hebrew is new, it's new, it's translated from new. God says, I was intimate, I was up close with you. Then I ordained you, I sanctified you, I set you aside for work, man. So there's a plan, there's a work, there's an authenticity that was established about you before you ever got here. Can't have Rada without Yada. So in the earth realm, we got to visit the Yada place and get— it's not just good preaching and teaching. I've been teaching about Yada for 30 years, so, and I've been living in Yada, hallelujah, probably longer than that, because ever since I was a child, I was looking for who I was in God. You got to get in the Yada place so Rada dominion can be manifested manifested. Woo-wee! In your life.

Listen, this text in Genesis 1:28, man, these were the first words ever spoken to man that empowered him, hallelujah, to operate and rule on earth.

These are words in Genesis 1:28 of empowerment to rule in overflow in the manifested vision in your life. Listen, the blessing, these words, he blessed them, it equipped them with the divine resources they needed to carry out the creation of God. So when God blessed Adam and Eve, we're one of them, we're humans, he— that same mandate is over our life. We have an innate quality from the Yadah place where God pronounced a blessing over us Mm, oh boy.

And so we ought to be carrying out that blessing in the earth consistently, in continuity. Listen, you have everything you need inside of you to be who you are.

Ah, ah.

I'll say that again. You have everything you need on the inside of you to be who you are. You ain't got to copy nobody. You ain't got to imitate, mimic nobody. You are authentically you. You ain't got to copy somebody else's plan and process because they did it and they successful doing it. You could find your own flavor. Your own fire, your own authenticity, because you have everything you need to be who you are. You came to this planet with it, packing it. And if you ever discover it, it will emerge as fruit and it will begin to multiply and increase you to the overflow. Listen. The blessing is the ability to operate, glory to the name of God, under what God spoke, what God ordained. That's his will for your life.

The blessing of Yada speaking over you before you got here, that's his will. That's why you gotta go to the Yada place.

That's why you need prophets.

That's why you need a prophetic inclination.

Hear me.

Yeah, man, you need a prophetic inclination so that you can discover the Yada place. You could discover the authentic assignment that was spoken over your life, and you can use the prophetic power in you to speak forth what God already prophesied and blessed your life with. I dare you, touch yourself and type it in the comments and say, I have prophetic power. I decree and declare that every person listening to me, every Holy Ghost-filled believer, I declare you have prophetic power, and you need to begin to speak out of your mouth the power that God gave, the power that God gave you to do and be in life.

Glory to God.

Ooh-wee!

I got to get out of here, man. I gotta go, I gotta go. Listen, we have been delivered from the curse of never enough, and we are living in the blessing now, the blessing of more than enough. We're living in overflow. Can I submit to you that when Jesus was raised from the dead into life, according to scriptures, we were also raised from the curse into life. When we made him Lord over our life for real— listen— we received a full pardon from the curse. So that means if you got a full pardon from the curse You have a full pardon from spiritual death, from sickness and disease, from poverty. You have a right because you're raised with Christ, come on, to spiritual life, that and that more abundantly. You have a right to healing and divine health. You have a right to prosperity. Living debt-free. You have a right to overflow in your finances. Hear me good, man, I'm almost done. The blessing of Abraham is about living in the overflow. Let me just paint a picture in scripture. I want to paint a word picture. Yeah, yeah, to what living in this blessing of Abraham looks like the blessing of Abraham. Yeah, what it looks like and how it should flow out of you in continuity. And I'm just gonna read it. When I read this, I'm gonna be done. Let's go to Deuteronomy 28, and I want to read verses 1 through 14. Deuteronomy 28, verses 1 through 14.

You'll find these words.

It says, if you fully obey the Lord your God— yes, and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you on high above all the nations of the earth.

So the first thing we got to see here, in order for the blessing of overflow to move in our life, that obedience— hear me—

is non-negotiable. Obedience is non- negotiable. You must obey God and carefully follow his commandments. Follow what he says do. So I hear somebody, you with your religious self, saying, that don't apply to me, that's in the Old Testament. Listen, if you're a blood-bought believer, the whole Bible, the Old Will and the New Will, applies to you. I just want you— some of the stuff Jesus has fulfilled, you know, through his death.

Great.

And watch this, all of the bad stuff was nailed to the cross, but the blessing of the Old Covenant is revealed in Jesus Christ. Glory be to God. I need you to grab it, man.

So you got to obey the Lord and follow his commandments. So you can't be out here doing what you want to do and expect God to put his blessing on it and expect to operate in overflow. You can't dismiss God's word and expect overflow just to show up in your life. You can't give when you want to. You can't tithe when you want to. Hallelujah. You can't and expect the overflow. You, you can't live holy when you want to. Now it's a difference in falling in something than choosing to just be unrighteous. Listen, and I hear you, his grace is sufficient for me, and it is. But listen, you ought to make an effort to practice obedience and follow God's commands, God's way of doing things. And God knows if you got a relationship with God and he's telling you things to do You can't expect to be blessed when God speaks something to you and you don't do it.

Come on, man.

Come on, come on. He said, follow his commands I give you today. He said, the Lord God will set you on high above all the ethnicities, the nations of the earth. The believer, hear me, should be above every culture of people on the earth in every area. We should be leading financially, We should be leading in business. We should be leading in entertainment and technology. We should be leading in government and politics. We should be the head of everything, superimpose— of education, superimposing God's kingdom and way in every state of life. We should be at the top and leading. But guess what, man?

We ain't leading economically, educationally, in entertainment and media. We're not leading in athletics. We're not leading in government because we got so many believers. We're outnumbered because we got so many believers who are religious, who have chosen to follow after the way of living of the world. And not—

and I'm not talking about just living in sin.

I'm just talking about living your life Hear me, according to a system that is not designed for you to outgrow it, that is not designed for you to rule in it. So you ascribe to the 9 to 5, you ascribe to how the world tells you to approach business instead of leaning on God for a relationship that guides you through how to start a business. This, how to become a millionaire, billionaire. Glory to God, because he knows it.

So why did I ask him?

I've asked God, Lord, show me how to become a billionaire. Show me the way. Give me the innovation. And listen, every day he's downloading, downloading innovation, showing me the path on how I'm gonna get to a billion. And trust me, I'm working on it every single day, because I was telling one of my sons the other day, I got to be a billionaire because I got too much to do in the kingdom.

We're planning a church in Woodbridge, Virginia. We're planning another church in Jackson, Mississippi. Listen, we're getting— we're going to plant a church this year in Griffin, Georgia. Every time we plant, we need to be able to buy a facility and we need to be able to buy that facility without the bank. So we need to have billions in our resource pool so that when we get ready to do ministry, Nothing hinders that. And one of the ways God's going to do that is through promoting me high above the earth and giving me billions to advance his kingdom. And it's going to happen. I got too many innovative things in the pot, innovative investments. Oh my God. Innovative creations and ideas that's going to bring this billion to the forefront. So I'm telling you right now, you can live beneath your privilege all you want. You keep speaking in tongues and I speak in tongues all the time.

Y'all hear me do it.

That's who I am. I pray in the spirit a lot, all day long. But I'm just telling you, once you get through with that, you need to take some action and do something. You need to hear and make it and take action by faith.

Let me keep reading.

He says, and all— if you obey, verse 2, all these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God. Say, touch yourself, type in the comments, say obedience is non-negotiable for overflow. Type it: obedience is non-negotiable for overflow. Verse 3: You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. So you'll be blessed when you go into the city, you'll be blessed when you go out domestically into the country and internationally. In other words, everywhere you go, you're going to be blessed. He said, the fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land, and the young of your livestock, the calves of your herds, and the lambs of your flocks. Watch this, verse 5, your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. So, you know, he's talking about business. So what you do as an entrepreneur, what you do in business, when you operate under obedience to God and you have a business, oh God, thank you for blessing my businesses, God. I, I can't speak for nobody else right now, but right here in this live, in the middle of teaching this word, I just want to thank you for blessing my business dealings and allowing me to be able to teach this from a place of experience. God, I am a witness that you'll take a business, a small business, and bless it. You'll turn into a corporation. You'll give it exposure. You'll cause it to go to places it never dreamed of going. And send people to me that I never met, that I don't know, don't even know today how they found me.

It's the blessing. It's the blessed.

It's the blessing. It's obedience to God. He wants to bless what you put your hands on. Watch this. He said you will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. So when you come in your house, you're going to be blessed. When you leave your house you're going to operate under the blessing. And, and this word blessed in the text, again, it means you will have an indwelt quality of deity, which means you will be empowered with the resources necessary to prosper. I'm gonna say that again. Blessed in this text means you'll be marked with the qualities of deity, of God, and empowered with the resources of a deity. So you have everything at your disposal to do what you need to do when you go out and when you come in.

But if you don't move in obedience— I'm not talking about you ain't sinning, you don't drink, you don't smoke, you ain't having sex, you ain't committing adultery, okay? There's people that's not doing that that's still not walking in this what I'm talking about. I'm saying obeying the principles of the kingdom and operating in faith that God is going to help you in everything you do. Which means if God brings an idea to your mind, you don't look at your resources, you don't look at your bank account, you don't look at what Mama told you, what Daddy taught you. What you do is— hear me good— you look at the kingdom and how it's God is able to provide for you, and you trust God that he's going to do just what he said. Let me keep reading. Verse 7: The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you, and they will come at you in one direction but will flee in seven. Glory to the name of God!

God is going to cause your enemies to depart from you seven different ways.

Oh, glory to God! He's gonna get people off your back.

He's going to cause your enemies to be defeated right before your eyes. You're going to see the things that once slowed you down and stopped you. When you move in overflow, when you move in obedience, the things that tried to hinder you are going to be defeated right before— oh my God— right before your eyes. You're gonna see it happen. Verse 8: The Lord will send a blessing on barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord God will bless you in the land he has given you. The assignment that God gave you is going to be blessed. Your storehouse, your barns, is equal to a bank account. It's equal to where you store. It's equal to investment. So where you have your money invested, God says, I'm gonna bless your investments. I'm— oh my God, I'm gonna bless your bank accounts. I'm gonna fill them up as long as you move in obedience. And I'm gonna bless you within the assignment that you're working with your hands. Verse 9: The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he prompts—

holy is hagios in Greek.

As his people set aside and identified as people of God. So know this, that this blessing is not coming on you so you can flaunt the blessing and wear your Gucci and carry your Louis bag and drive your Bentley and not give God glory. God is going to bless you under the blessing through your obedience so that when you're asked, how did you do that? How did you— somebody saw, uh, Lady Felicia and I on a billboard here in the city, and, and they had— they asked, just send me a message, say, how did you do that, man? How did you get on that billboard? I said, the blessing. It was the Lord. It's through obedience to God. So people allow God to— God will allow people to see you blessed just so you can answer them and point them back to him and teach a lesson on how if you trust God, whatever you want, he'll do it. He— whatever you want, he'll do it. I'll say it again, whatever you want, hear me, he will do it. I'm almost done, I'm almost done, man, I'm almost done. He says, if you— still verse 9— if you keep the commandments of the Lord and walk in obedience to him, verse 10, then all the people of the earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you.

Not fear like be afraid, but they will reverence you, they will respect you. You'll get mad respect. Because you're moving in faith. And you see, see, see, see, watch this. People in the world ain't moved by how deep your tongues is because darkness can't comprehend light anyway. They're not moved by how much you pray. Yeah, they're not moved by how much you go to church and be religious. People in the world want to see what God has done.

How did this work?

For you. And that's why I'm allowing God to teach me how to be a billionaire. I'm going where he tells me to go to listen and learn from people who are already billionaires. I'm trying to play golf with folk that are billionaires because I need to learn the principles so that when God promotes me, I can teach others and give God glory and multiply the increase.

Grace.

Listen, he wants to do the same for you. I'm gonna say again, he wants to do the same for you. He wants to do the same for you. Let me keep reading. Verse 11: The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity in the fruit of your womb. He'll cause your womb to be blessed, and he'll cause the children that come out of your womb— glory to God— out of your loins to be blessed.

God's not just going to bless you.

This blessing is for you and your children.

He says, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground in the land where he swore to your ancestors to give you. Verse 12, the Lord will open the heavens.

Oh my, hallelujah! Y'all hear that?

He said the Lord— when you move in obedience and you're operating in overflow, God rips open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season.

Season to bless the work of your hands. Watch this, you will lend to many nations and not borrow. God is about to position you to be the bank where you will lend and not borrow. Watch this, lending is not giving, lending is a loan. In other words, God is saying you will become so wealthy as a people that nations of the earth will have to borrow from, ooh wee, from my kingdom people. What if the church and the kingdom of God got so wealthy that the government of the United States needed to borrow from us to deal with their trillion dollar deficit?

Do you realize if all the believers got hold of this, we have more than trillion dollar economy in the kingdom?

And that governments of the world would be seeking us out. And if we really start making our presence known in the kingdoms of the world, so the kingdoms of this world can become the kingdoms of our God in Christ, we could employ people, we could become our own banks for real. You know, there was a time the church—

church—

a lot of big churches, mega churches were saying they had banks when really they were just partnering with credit unions. They really didn't have their own banking institution because they just really didn't have the wealth to supply all that need. So they had to have collaborative partnerships with other banks. But really, God wants us to have our own banking institutions where that we can mortgage houses for the saints.

Glory to the name of God.

Where we can build communities for homeless people and restoration centers for the homeless.

Where we can build educational systems systems where we can create our own economy in a way that we don't need to go to the world for nothing. This is big, man. So walking in the overflow is not just about you individually. You got to get there so corporately we can put our stuff together and create a real economic system that changes the world.

Oh, I got to go, man. I got to go. He said, you'll lend to many nations and borrow from none. The Lord will make you the head— that's dominion— not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top.

I dare you to touch yourself and say, I'll always be at the top. This is not a euphemism. This is not just clichés.

This is the word of God.

Touch yourself and say, according to God's word, I will always be at the top and never at the bottom. I need you to say it again. Say, according to God's word, I will always be at the top and never at the bottom.

Oh my God. Verse 14, and I'm done. He said, do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today.

To the right nor to the left, following other gods and serving them.

Listen, God said, don't you dare miss it to the left nor to the right. Be accurate. Don't you follow after these other gods, these other systems, these other ways of living, these— oh my God— sacrilegious folk, these religious folk who are creating their own canon, their own way of living. He says, follow after me and watch what I do for you. Let's pray. Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank you for this word. May it land on the good ground of every heart and every person that has heard it and received it. I pray that it'll go back to them even now a thousand times more than they have received it. In Jesus' name, amen. And thanks be to God. Listen, thank you today for listening. I'm so glad that you were able to hear this word. Do me a favor, y'all, share it, because I believe it's going to be a blessing to all that hear it. Listen, I love you guys. I really need you really quick to give. Some of you watch these teachings, but whenever you hear the word of God, the Bible says that when the man of God, the woman of God, sows to you spiritual spiritual things, you should sow natural things. You should communicate natural things. And I don't want you to give to me today, but I want you to sow into the church. We are embarking upon some major things this year. Again, we're planting 3 churches simultaneously. We've already began the process of doing that. We need your assistance, though. All of our partners and friends, we need you to plant a one-of-a-kind sacrifice in your giving today. Make sure you get it in the ground. Listen, I promise you, as you trust God, he will multiply your seed a thousand times more than it is. So trust God today. Let me just quickly pray over your giving. The ways to give are on the screen, but I want to pray that God will multiply this seed sown a thousand times more. Let's pray. Father, in Jesus' name, We thank you for the opportunity to give, and thank you for those that are watching right now. May they bless, bless, bless the ministry, God. Let them know that their seed is being sown on good ground, multiplied for them a thousand times more. I thank you, God, that they have watched this teaching to the end, and they're receiving the overflow even through their giving, in Jesus' name. Amen. And thanks be to God. Well, saints, I love you. My time is way gone, but I love you so much. And I want to encourage you, as I do each and every week, share the word with a friend. And remember, your decisions will set you up for dominion. God bless you.
