Walking In Abundance- Part 11
October 25, 2026 – 3:44 amJesus walked in abundance; we are meant to walk in the same manner and bring glory to GOD!
Jesus wants us to walk in life and abundance and He is our example.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2nd Corinthians chapter 1:
20 For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.
21 Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us,
When God says, “Yes,” then we respond with “Amen,” and that settles it. Our responding with “Amen” is like our putting our feet on that particular area of ground. So every promise you can find in the Bible, if you come to God on the basis of that promise, through Jesus Christ, God says, “Yes.” And when God says “Yes,” you say “Amen” to that promise and that settles it.
The King James translation makes it a little easier to explain. “For all the promises of God in Him are yes, and in Him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.”
Notice the following points. It’s “all,” not “some.” All the promises of God—every promise God has ever made is “yes” in Christ. Then it says “are,” not were nor will be. All the promises of God now are.
So many people believe God did wonderful things in the past. They believe He’ll do wonderful things in the future; but just at the moment, they view God as being kind of bankrupt. He’s got nothing to do for us. His promises are in abeyance. That’s not what the Bible says. The Bible says all the promises of God now are “yes” and “amen.”
Notice that it’s in Him. Jesus is the only channel. God is the Source; Jesus is the channel and abundance comes to us only from the Source, God, through the channel, Jesus. Outside of Jesus we have no claim on God’s promises or God’s abundance.
And then it says, “to the glory of God.”
The ultimate purpose of God’s abundance is God’s glory.
That’s the purpose of everything that God does, ultimately that He will be glorified. And so, in claiming the promises of God, we bring glory to God. It’s most important to see that that’s how we glorify God, by claiming His promises.
This Truth has been obscured in the past. Some prosperity preachers have focused on acquiring wealth for personal benefit at the expense of those in need. They brought glory to themselves and put a bad taste in the mouth of many.
FATHER is not opposed to us having desirable things. It is all about our intent and willingness to bless others.
We are to bring glory to God. It’s most important to see that that’s how we glorify God, by claiming His promises.
This is beautifully illustrated in the life of Abraham. Paul speaks of this in Romans 4, verses 20 through 21, about Abraham. It says:
“He did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.” (NIV)
Notice how Abraham gave glory to God. It was on the basis of God’s promise. God’s promise is the basis on which we can give Him glory. We give Him glory when we believe and receive the fulfillment of His promise.
We all have robbed God of His glory. That’s the very essence of sin. We’ve robbed God of His glory. The only way we can restore the glory due to God is by receiving and experiencing His promises. All the promises of God, in Christ, are “yes” and “amen” to the glory of God.
Bear in mind, the ultimate purpose of all that God does for us is His glory.
