My Cup Overflows

Lamentations 3:24 NASB1995‬

A child of God has been allotted, with all God’s children, a portion of God. An invitation to be a part of the whole of God. One with God in fellowship and the work of God.

What a tremendous gift God has given us, so don’t give up hope.

The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.
Psalms 16:5 NASB1995

1 Timothy 6:15 NASB1995

Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?
1 Corinthians 6:19 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.6.19.NASB1995

“All that I have said to you” He will bring to remembrance. This is where the Bible plays a very, very important part in our walk with the Lord.

The Spirit of God spoke and His word was on my tongue.

Is the Spirit of the Lord speaking through you?
