Abundant Life
I have come that you may have life, and life more abundantly. For the life I give is eternal life, eternal joy, eternal peace. But know that difficult times are still coming on this earth. But do not let your hearts be troubled. For I have prepared a place for you in My Kingdom, My government, and My family. So fear not the times quickly approaching, for you have My abundant life that the world cannot take away. So don’t let this world take from you your peace and joy. For as I walked on the water through the storm, I am calling to walk above the stormy water that you may be a testimony of My victory on the cross. Therefore, I ask you to honor My victory on the cross this season with faith, hope, and love, even in the face of turmoil and trouble. Receive My gift to you of abundant life.
John 10:10
The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
Commentary
This prophetic word explains that the life that we receive when we are born again is an abundant life. The verse comes from John 10 as Jesus identifies himself as the good shepherd, and compares himself to others of the world that would “oversee” the flock. He identifies them as “the thief” because of their self interest to take advantage of the sheep. However, Jesus gives us a life by the Spirit that is abundant from all aspects. The life that He gives is abundant in righteousness, peace and joy on this earth, and also abundant in blessing for eternity. The word also indicates that our abundant life cannot be taken by the thief during difficult times because our place in His kingdom, His government, and His family are totally secure in Him. So we must focus on the eternal life that He has given us and not let this world take our joy and peace.
