- 1:36SPEAKER_00: And I'm sure a lot of you that have children that are getting your kids ready for school, you can totally 100% relate to what I'm saying.
- 1:44SPEAKER_00: This podcast today, I'm going to share something exciting with you because I have some really exciting news.
- 1:52SPEAKER_00: Starting Monday, which is right around the corner, unless Jesus comes back before then, this podcast is going to launch a seven-day overflow challenge workshop.
- 2:12SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:12SPEAKER_00: And in that seven days, seven days in a row, I'm going to overflow with podcasts.
- 2:22SPEAKER_00: Because not only does God overflow for us in abundance, I want to overflow in return.
- 2:29SPEAKER_00: I want to give something back.
- 2:31SPEAKER_00: So I'm excited to get this challenge going.
- 2:34SPEAKER_00: And this isn't just a challenge for myself, this is a challenge for everyone.
- 2:38SPEAKER_00: So if you want to gain more overflow of Jesus Christ and have that abundance that He has for us, that He offers us, you don't want to miss out on this week.
- 2:55SPEAKER_00: Every single day is going to be great.
- 2:58SPEAKER_00: So let's let me just go over what we're going to be talking about this next week, okay?
- 3:03SPEAKER_00: Because I want to get you excited.
- 3:05SPEAKER_00: I want to get you pumped up.
- 3:06SPEAKER_00: I want to get you prepared.
- 3:08SPEAKER_00: Today's message is all about being prepared, right?
- 3:12SPEAKER_00: So day one, um, while I'm preparing you to be able to live from a place that is of spiritual abundance, um, even while we're working on crushing strongholds, we still can have overflow.
- 3:31SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:32SPEAKER_00: So the first episode is going to be talking about the source of overflow.
- 3:38SPEAKER_00: Where does it come from and how do we get it?
- 3:41SPEAKER_00: It's kind of like when um you hear about the big sale, especially like on Black Fridays or um at the supermarket or Walmart or Amazon, they're having a big sale.
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: You want to know where the where it is, where it's at, how much it's gonna cost, you want all of the information.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: Okay, but where do you get that information?
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: You have to know where the source is.
- 4:01SPEAKER_00: So we're gonna take you there.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: Day one is gonna be talking about the source of overflow and how we get it.
- 4:07SPEAKER_00: Day two is gonna be removing any blockages.
- 4:13SPEAKER_00: We don't want any blockages in our way.
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: We don't want to be the beaver in the dam.
- 4:19SPEAKER_00: Okay, we definitely don't want to be in that position where where we are blocking ourselves from overflow.
- 4:28SPEAKER_00: Okay, we want to have that overflow.
- 4:30SPEAKER_00: Not only do we want to receive it, but we also want to be able to overflow onto others.
- 4:36SPEAKER_00: I want to overflow for all of you because God has overflowed for me so many times in my life.
- 4:43SPEAKER_00: So many times when I wasn't worthy of it, he did it anyway.
- 4:47SPEAKER_00: So many times when I wasn't deserving, he did it anyway.
- 4:50SPEAKER_00: So many times, um, even if I didn't need it, he showed up anyway.
- 4:55SPEAKER_00: And and sometimes it's good to give back.
- 4:58SPEAKER_00: It's good to give back.
- 4:59SPEAKER_00: Kind of like the pay it forward thing, okay?
- 5:01SPEAKER_00: Paying it forward is a is another type of overflow.
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: We want to do that, okay?
- 5:06SPEAKER_00: We're gonna talk about that.
- 5:07SPEAKER_00: Day three, we're gonna talk about the overflow in the valley, okay, and how to get refueled.
- 5:16SPEAKER_00: Just like when your car gets low on gas and you start put put putting down the road because you're not gonna make it.
- 5:22SPEAKER_00: You're just not gonna make it too much further if you don't get a refill.
- 5:26SPEAKER_00: Okay, we have to be fueled.
- 5:28SPEAKER_00: We have to get refueled, okay?
- 5:30SPEAKER_00: And we want to make sure that we are doing that on the daily.
- 5:35SPEAKER_00: How do we daily get overflowed?
- 5:37SPEAKER_00: Okay, that is so important.
- 5:40SPEAKER_00: We want that to happen.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: So that's gonna be day three.
- 5:43SPEAKER_00: Day four, we're gonna be talking about um guarding your flow and blessing others from the overflow, okay?
- 5:52SPEAKER_00: And there's like a little bug flying around me.
- 5:54SPEAKER_00: I'm sorry.
- 5:55SPEAKER_00: It's driving me crazy.
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: I don't know where he went, but y'all probably can't see it.
- 5:58SPEAKER_00: But I really am swatting at a bug.
- 6:01SPEAKER_00: So he's a really annoying little guy.
- 6:03SPEAKER_00: So, day four.
- 6:05SPEAKER_00: We want to guard your flow.
- 6:08SPEAKER_00: And we also want to bless others with overflow.
- 6:12SPEAKER_00: So we got to look at balancing that out.
- 6:14SPEAKER_00: How do we balance that out?
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: Okay, kind of like getting on the teeter-totter, okay.
- 6:18SPEAKER_00: Um, we want it to be fun, we want it to be exciting, we want, but we want to make sure that we're balanced out.
- 6:25SPEAKER_00: Day um five is guarding your cup.
- 6:31SPEAKER_00: Guarding your cup.
- 6:33SPEAKER_00: So when God's filling up your cup, you need to guard it.
- 6:38SPEAKER_00: And what does that look like?
- 6:39SPEAKER_00: Well, you don't want to you don't want it to fall over, okay?
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: You don't want to just spill it all out and lose it all.
- 6:45SPEAKER_00: You just want it to be overflowing, okay?
- 6:48SPEAKER_00: It's it's a constant overflowing, it's not a spillage, okay, from a breakage or getting knocked down.
- 6:57SPEAKER_00: So we want to look at that.
- 6:58SPEAKER_00: We want to guard our cup, okay?
- 7:00SPEAKER_00: Day six is gonna be talking about the oil won't run out.
- 7:05SPEAKER_00: This is gonna be an exciting day because God's overflow doesn't stop.
- 7:13SPEAKER_00: Only we can stop the overflow.
- 7:15SPEAKER_00: Going back to talking about the blockage, only we can do that.
- 7:19SPEAKER_00: So we want to be prepared and learn how not to let the oil run out.
- 7:26SPEAKER_00: We need to always be thinking about that.
- 7:29SPEAKER_00: Okay, day seven um is living in the overflow as well as um overflowing in gratitude and service.
- 7:37SPEAKER_00: So I want to finish off the week strong with that.
- 7:40SPEAKER_00: So when we close out that week, we have a really good idea as to how we're supposed to be living in the overflow, how we're supposed to be showing gratitude for the overflow, and what services we're supposed to be providing with our overflow.
- 7:57SPEAKER_00: Because sometimes I think with overflow, we can be wasteful.
- 8:01SPEAKER_00: We don't want to be wasteful, okay.
- 8:03SPEAKER_00: We want to we want to make sure we're igniting things, we want to make sure that we um are helping others that need overflow so that way we can fill their cup up as well.
- 8:14SPEAKER_00: Okay, so it's super important that we think about that.
- 8:17SPEAKER_00: Not only with these daily challenges are we gonna have a message and scripture, but guess what else we're gonna have?
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: Each day is going to have um a link in um the notes, the the show notes, so that you can have a free worksheet for each day of the week for each podcast that you can do.
- 8:42SPEAKER_00: You can go in and do the worksheet so it can help you to work on yourself.
- 8:48SPEAKER_00: So, how do we turn pain into power and the trauma into triumph?
- 8:52SPEAKER_00: How do we break off the lies of the enemy?
- 8:54SPEAKER_00: How do we end up um getting rid of curses in our life?
- 8:58SPEAKER_00: This is how we do it.
- 9:00SPEAKER_00: We take on a challenge like this, we take on a workshop and we give it full seven days.
- 9:06SPEAKER_00: And then normally I post once a week, but God said, We need overflow.
- 9:11SPEAKER_00: We need overflow.
- 9:12SPEAKER_00: You need overflow and you need to overflow.
- 9:15SPEAKER_00: So I was like, you know what, God, this is so exciting.
- 9:18SPEAKER_00: I was so excited when um I started studying about it and started putting it all together, and I was like, I can't wait for next week.
- 9:26SPEAKER_00: I can't wait for you guys all to be on board.
- 9:29SPEAKER_00: So get on board, um, open up your worksheets every day.
- 9:41SPEAKER_00: And I don't know what just happened.
- 9:44SPEAKER_00: I don't know if you can see me or not, but I lost my screen.
- 9:51SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 9:53SPEAKER_00: I don't know what happened.
- 9:54SPEAKER_00: My computer just completely froze.
- 9:56SPEAKER_00: It went completely black.
- 9:58SPEAKER_00: I don't know if um that like the last couple minutes just got missed or what happened.
- 10:10SPEAKER_00: I will find out when I review this episode, I guess.
- 10:14SPEAKER_00: So, and if I have to, I'll do it over.
- 10:16SPEAKER_00: Not a big deal.
- 10:17SPEAKER_00: So, anyway, um, you know, the enemy likes to try to get in there, likes to try to break us down and try to discourage us, and this is one way he likes to do it with me.
- 10:25SPEAKER_00: Um, he likes to bring in technical difficulties to um make my life a little harder.
- 10:32SPEAKER_00: But you know what?
- 10:32SPEAKER_00: It's okay because I have God, and God just says, you know what, just go all, just go with it.
- 10:37SPEAKER_00: Just go with the flow.
- 10:38SPEAKER_00: Whatever happens, happens.
- 10:39SPEAKER_00: It's okay.
- 10:39SPEAKER_00: We'll get through it.
- 10:40SPEAKER_00: So, this is how we learn to overflow, okay?
- 10:44SPEAKER_00: We learn to overflow by the grace of God.
- 10:46SPEAKER_00: God gives us the patience and he gives us the ability to be able to um um handle things and withstand some stuff.
- 10:55SPEAKER_00: So, anyhow, I wanted to share it with you.
- 10:58SPEAKER_00: I I before I got distracted there with all of that little glitch that just happened.
- 11:03SPEAKER_00: Um, anyhow, I well, I do want to share with you.
- 11:07SPEAKER_00: Not only is there a worksheet provided each day, the scripture is gonna be given.
- 11:12SPEAKER_00: We're gonna be in the Word of God every single day.
- 11:14SPEAKER_00: We're also gonna be praying, praying.
- 11:16SPEAKER_00: I will be praying for you every single day.
- 11:18SPEAKER_00: And then I'm gonna challenge you to do something every single day, along with the worksheet.
- 11:23SPEAKER_00: Okay, I want you to do something.
