Exactly what does Abundant life mean to YOU? You need to write it down and that will be our prayer focus tonight.
Jesus while on earth used different approaches while solving people’s problems. In some instances He commanded, at other times He rebuked while at some instances He asked what people wanted:
“When Jesus heard him, he stopped and said, “Tell him to come here.” So they called the blind man. “Cheer up,” they said. “Come on, he’s calling you!” Bartimaeus threw aside his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus. “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “My Rabbi, ” the blind man said, “I want to see!””
Mark 10:49-51 NLT
Several other Bible characters also expressed what they considered to be their abundant life. Meditate on the following:
Abraham- Genesis:2-6
Moses – Exodus 33:15
Jabez – 1Chronicles 4:10
Paul- Phillipians 3:10
JESUS- John 6:32-44
Paul gave believers many suggestions on what abundant life could mean: Ephesians 5:15-20; 1Thessalonians 5:23
*When a vision or a thought is written down, the likelihood of forgetting it is slimmer. Therefore, thoughtfully write down your personal definition of Abundant life and start to focus on it as you continue with this challenge.
