Have It All

Have It All

By Pastor Andre Butler
This week's topic: A Life Of Success

Have it all! Isn’t that what the world is striving for? People read books, chase money, fame, and sex all in a futile effort to have it all in life. Sadly, they don’t realize that the only person that can bring them to a place of satisfaction is God.

The good news is that we can tell them about Jesus and demonstrate to them what God can do with a life that is totally sold out to Him. We can tell them that they can have it all in God! They can have a life of satisfaction and significance! A life worth living!

To be effective in our witness about God, we need to allow God to develop our character so that we are enjoying the rich life He desires us to have for ourselves. The rich life is where you prosper spiritually, emotionally, physically, professionally, and financially. It includes growing spiritually through a life lived in the Word and daily fellowship with Jesus.

It also includes consistently enjoying the blessing that comes from being a blessing to others, especially in leading someone into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Living a life of significance is the key to living a life of satisfaction.

In giving us the greatest gift of Jesus, God has demonstrated His great love to us. His Word teaches that He will give good things to His children, and that He’ll withhold no good from those of us who will walk right before Him. In short He desires that we have it all. When I married my wife Tiffany, I gave her my heart. And after 10 years, that is the greatest gift I gave her--myself.

Sure, buying her material things to fill her needs and wants has shown her how much I love her, but those things are just bonuses. This is what God has done with us. He gave us Jesus, and with this greatest gift came the ability to receive from God in every area of life. God has demonstrated to us that His desire is that we enjoy the life

He intended for Adam and Eve to have all along, and we can start living it now. Of course, we have to deal with the enemy in this life but ‘greater is He that is in us than He that is in the world’ (1John 4:4). We have the tools to defeat him every time!

Today is the day to start having it all!

Choose to give up control of every area of your life to God. Say yes to Him about everything! Never tell God no. And as you grow in your relationship with Him and fulfill His plan for your life, you will be able to witness to the world around you that it is possible to have it all in this life.

You Can Have It All in God!

Scripture Of The Day: "For the Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right." - Psalm 84:11
