Podcasts about overflowing

Jesus invites thirsty people to come to Him and receive the life of God through the Holy Spirit.    Taught by Jose Zayas.

Send me a Text Message!I closed the last episode of this series, with the words, "Our hearts follow our treasures. If we aren't surrendering our treasures to God, then we're robbing God of our hearts." Do you understand God doesn't need our money. He wants our hearts. And if we chase God with all our hearts, He promises to open up the floodgates of heaven and pour out an uncontainable blessing. If we pursue God with all our hearts, here is the promise, God says, "I will open the floodgates of heaven and pour out uncontainable blessings."Ask yourself the question, "Is my life overflowing with God's blessings?" 

Andy Barefoot continues our series in the book of Nehemiah. Sunday June 14th, 2026.

Overflowing Joy // Extravagant Worship // Pastor Philip Muela by Inspire Churches

Overflowing Joy // The Birth of Praise // Pastor Philip Muela by Inspire Churches

Today on Bridging the Gap we're going to talk about the great privilege we have to give back to Him.  Pastor Lloyd Pulley is going to draw out a few valuable principles for giving from Second Corinthians nine.  Among the things we'll discuss is how much should we give, and what our attitude should be when we drop a check in the collection box. As Lloyd has mentioned, God is much more interested in the attitude, not the amount.

A Christian is someone so filled with Jesus - the living water - that grace and truth naturally overflow into the lives of the people around them.

God has set our feet in a wide space but our choices, our circumstances and our enemy try to narrow our lives.  Using Psalm 31, this message highlights the 7 areas we need to guard in order protect the wide space God has put us in.  Practical encouragement and prayer are given to reclaim those wide spaces and live as a people overflowing with hope.

Filled and Overflowing (Part 1) | Ps Dave Hamers by iSEE CHURCH

Prayer: I Declare Overflowing Blessing!“And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God." Deuteronomy 28:2Heavenly Father, with a heart full of gratitude, I come before You, recognizing the endless gifts You shower upon me each day. Thank You for Your unwavering love and faithfulness, for it is by Your grace that I stand, ready to receive Your overflowing blessings. As You declared in Deuteronomy 28:2, may Your blessings follow me and overtake me, bringing joy and abundance into every corner of my life.Lord, just as the house of Obed-Edom was filled with prosperity and favor when Your presence dwelled among him, I invite Your Holy Spirit to inhabit my home and my heart. Let the work of my hands be blessed and let creativity and purpose flow through me. As I pursue my daily tasks, may they become an act of worship, reflecting Your love and goodness.Proverbs 10:22 says, "The blessing of the LORD makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow with it."I lift up my household to You, asking that harmony and love reign among us. Strengthen our relationships, Lord; fill them with kindness and understanding. In Proverbs 10:22, You remind us that the blessing of the Lord brings wealth without painful toil. May laughter and joy be our companions, keeping sorrow far from our threshold.Father, instill in me a spirit of generosity, that I might share the overflowing blessings You have given me. Help me to be a vessel of Your love, spreading Your goodness to those around me, fulfilling the call in Psalm 23:5 — to have my cup run over. Let each act of giving be a reflection of Your heart.In this sacred moment, I boldly declare: Father, command Your blessing upon me. Let goodness and mercy chase after me, wrapping me in their embrace. May Your glory shine brightly in my life, drawing others to You. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. Psalm 23:5-6 says, "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever." Amen.https://maglife.org

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!What do you do when the world around you is constantly chasing false idols — when society’s empty promises tempt you to forget the true source of your provision? Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 65 — God’s Abundant Favor to Earth and Man — a psalm that speaks directly to the spiritual battle for our loyalty and the revolutionary goodness of the one true God. Jaime unpacks the rich historical and geographical context of this beautiful passage, revealing that it is far more than just a simple harvest celebration. Instead, she explores its powerful original purpose: a bold, spiritual assault on the false Canaanite god, Baal. While the ancient world was ruled by the fear of bloodthirsty, territorial deities who demanded horrific sacrifices in exchange for rain and crops, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob revealed Himself as a completely different kind of ruler—a loving Father who provides not because of what we do, but because of who He is. Even today, when we are surrounded by a culture that tempts us to fill our voids with modern-day idols and fleeting comforts, God remains the ultimate authority over the chaos. He is the One who truly establishes the mountains, stills the roaring seas, and crowns the year with His bounty. When the world demands constant noise and striving, God gently invites us into His courts, showing us that even our awestruck, still silence can be a profoundly effective form of praise. Come ready to lay down the earthly vices you’ve been clinging to and confront the ways the enemy tries to veil your spiritual eyes. Let this psalm remind you of the stark contrast between the exhausting demands of this world and the boundless grace of the Creator. Because He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, you don't have to look anywhere else to find your ultimate satisfaction, and you can confidently join all of creation in shouting for joy.

Rivers of living water should be flowing from our lives!

Remember God loves you so much he sent his Son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for your sins. You are of great value. Jesus loves you and He is just a prayer away! This episode includes AI-generated content.

This is our sixth week of our current series The Path, looking at practical application of what it means to follow Jesus and experience the adventure of faith in community. This week Nic explores the overflowing generosity that is central to Jesus' teaching. We look at some of the wisdom found in the bible and Nic challenges us to consider do we have a healthy relationship with money and possessions? How should we be using our precious resources of time and money. 4:55 The Message begins Want to know more?

God's generosity in our life should overflow into a life of generosity. But what if you struggle to see God's generosity? Maybe it feels like all that God has given you is hardship, pain, and struggle. What if you can barely pay the bills? In this message, we'll explore the extravagant generosity of God, to reawaken our hearts from pessimism and apathy, to overflowing love.

You are never too young to make a difference for the Kingdom of God. This graduation Sunday, we explored the feeding of the 5,000 in Luke 9:12-17, where Jesus didn't just feed the crowd—He empowered His disciples to distribute the blessing. The miracle wasn't just about multiplication; it was about maturity. Jesus gave the disciples 12 baskets of leftovers—not for themselves, but to give away.

Expendables 2 is the ideal sequel. Overflowing with testosterone, bulging veins, and well-timed quips, it fulfills the promise made by its predecessor — to bring back the mayhem and stars from yesteryear for a smorgasbord of insane action.

Mother's Day is a happy day for many, but it can also be a tender day. Some mothers are tired, burdened, grieving, worried about children or grandchildren, or carrying more than one heart was ever meant to carry. In this message, Pastor Ian Buckley looks at Psalm 23:1 and Psalm 23:5 and reminds us that because the Lord is our Shepherd, we don't have to live from what we lack. We can draw from what He supplies until His grace overflows through us. This message encourages us to rest in the Shepherd's care, remain connected to Jesus, choose gratitude and contentment, and let God's grace flow through us.

In this solo episode of the Thriving Authors Podcast, I'm talking about what I call Overflowing Ideas Syndrome. It's when you have so many ideas that it's really hard to commit to one idea and easy to get distracted.This will be a great episode for you if you have a bunch of half-finished manuscripts, but you don't have a completed book!I delve into:Why nothing is wrong with you and how you can reframe this into a strength.Tools that will help you focus your energy on one idea at a time.The importance of tuning in to the book YOU most want to write.What happens when you pay attention to what gives you energy and excites you.Journaling prompts that you can use whenever you need to find clarity about what direction to go in.After listening, I think you'll understand why it's really common to get distracted by shiny new ideas and to abandon projects halfway – and how joining a container of support with a writing community and working with a coach can help you stay accountable to finishing your book.And if you are an entrepreneur who wants to write and publish the book inside your heart, I'd love for you to join me in my Facebook group called Women Entrepreneurs Becoming Best Selling Authors. This free community is the perfect place to share what came up for you with this episode and any goals you have so we can cheer you on – and also to provide a little extra accountability for you, too!

In this episode we walk into the raw lives of scattered believers—strangers who've lost homes, loved ones, and safety—and invite you to witness how God turns the worst into the best. Using the vivid image of a shaken soda can, the host draws you into a story of inner stirring: when God's mercy pours into broken people, it becomes a living hope that forces them to overflow. Peter's letter becomes a lifeline, reminding listeners that resurrection is not a distant myth but a historical, life-giving event that guarantees a future good beyond suffering and death. Short and stirring, this episode moves from honest grief to contagious hope—showing how appreciation for God's mercy transforms thought patterns, sparks action, and propels us to share what we've received. Tune in to be challenged to stop hoarding blessing, become a vessel for God's love, and let your life spill over into the lives of others.

Imagine a soda can—shake it up and something inside stirs until it can no longer be contained. In this episode we follow that fizzing metaphor into the pages of 1 Peter, as scattered believers cling to hope amid persecution and learn how God's abundant mercy transforms worn-out cups into wells that pour life into a thirsty world. Through vivid storytelling and Scripture, we trace mercy from Moses' revelation to the cross where Jesus becomes mercy on display, and we discover what it looks like to receive mercy and then give it away. Tune in to be challenged, encouraged, and invited to live an overflowing life that reflects the mercy you've been shown.

Overflowing measures

In a world where anxiety often feels like the norm, how can families experience true, lasting peace together? In this episode of the Empowered Homes Podcast, hosts Bobby Cooley and Meghan Landi connect with Bible teacher, author, and speaker Tara Dew to talk about her new book, Overflowing Peace: What God Says About a Peace-Filled Life. Through this conversational interview, they explore how Psalm 23 offers a powerful and practical picture of peace—not just for individuals, but for entire families navigating the everyday rhythms and challenges of life. Tara shares how parents can help their children trust God's goodness in uncertain times, create simple rhythms of rest in busy homes, and walk through life's “dark valleys” with honesty and hope. Together, they unpack the rich imagery of Psalm 23—green pastures, quiet waters, and the Good Shepherd's presence—and what it looks like to cultivate homes marked by peace rather than pressure. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or ministry leader, this episode will encourage you with gospel-centered truth and practical ways to lead your family toward the overflowing peace that only God provides. Get Tara's Books here Connect with TaraAbout Empowered Homes Empowered Homes exists to help families win at home by equipping parents, grandparents, and ministry leaders to live out gospel truths in the everyday rhythms of life.

In this episode we continue a daily devotion through Psalm 119, exploring what it truly means to be happy. The speaker contrasts fleeting worldly pleasures with the deep, overflowing joy that comes from a right relationship with God, drawing on Scripture including John and the Beatitudes. Practical takeaways include coming to God with humility, hungering and thirsting for righteousness, and allowing God's Word to guide your life. The psalmist shows that lasting happiness flows from fellowship with Christ; the next episode will examine how God's Word should rule three areas of life.

Rieckhoff on Colbert Tonight!  Trump's Iran war is escalating, American troops and civilians are dying, and the truth is already becoming the first casualty—again. In this all-new solo episode 460 of Independent Americans, Paul Rieckhoff breaks down why the conflict feels like Vietnam all over again, what U.S. intelligence is really saying about regime change, and why American flag-draped caskets coming home must never be normalized.

He honors anti-war legend Country Joe McDonald, amplifies NFL great Ed Reed's rejection of White House war hype, and previews his appearance with Stephen Colbert—inviting new listeners into a growing, hopeful independent movement that puts country over party, people over politics, and light over heat. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

Hey friends — this episode dropped one day late, and honestly? That feels fitting. Because we're talking about peace… and sometimes peace means slowing down.This week on Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by Tara Dew, author of Overflowing Peace: What God Says About a Peace-Filled Life.Tara serves alongside her husband, the president of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, where they help train men and women who are called to take the gospel to some of the most broken places in the world. She's also a wife, a twin mom (yes — twins!), a Bible teacher, and now the author of a powerful new book walking slowly through Psalm 23.In this conversation, we talk about: • Her freedom story and meeting Jesus at a young age • Being released from perfectionism and people-pleasing • What Psalm 23 really means when you study it slowly • Quiet waters in a loud, anxious world • The valley of the shadow of death — and the promise that we walk through it • The difference between noise, poison, and true Living WaterIf you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like your mind never shuts off — this episode is for you.Because peace isn't the absence of struggle.It's the presence of the Shepherd.Bio:Tara Dew is a national speaker, author and Bible teacher. She has loved Jesus for as long as she can remember, trusting Him to be her Savior at the age of five years old at a Billy Graham Crusade. She felt called to ministry in the high school youth group, where she also met her husband, Jamie. Her primary ministry is to her family, as she is the mother of two sets of fraternal boy/girl twins called “the Dew Krewe.” Tara holds a Bachelors of Arts in Human Communication (2003) from Meredith College, a Master of Arts in Teaching and Learning Elementary Education (2012) from Liberty University and a Doctorate in Education (2018) from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

At a wedding with no wine and hearts running on empty, Jesus steps in. Pastor Jeff Schreve shows how the first miracle at Cana reveals a Savior who cares about your everyday problems, fills emptiness to the brim, and turns shame into joy when we do what He says.

Money is not a silly or superfluous thing. Money was designed to be our dignity. It answers to something God put down deep in us: that we all need to have part of the world to care for, and without any part of the world to care for, we have no dignity. But what has happened in most of our lives is instead of being our dignity, money has become our definition.  Money is power. It can act destructively or constructively in your life. How can you be sure it's acting constructively? You know the answer: it's in the Bible many places. It's not how much money you have or how little money you have, it all depends on your heart attitude. You have to be freed from money as your definition so that it can become your dignity and you can release its power where it will do the most good. There are three principles that need to be worked down into your heart, and we see them in what Paul says in 2 Corinthians: 1) God owns everything you have, so you have to act like a trustee, 2) Jesus gave everything for you, so you're freed for radical generosity, and 3) you can take it with you if you invest it in eternal things. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on January 7, 1990. Series: Ten Commandments 1989. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 8:1-15. Today's podcast is brought to you by Gospel in Life, the site for all sermons, books, study guides and resources from Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
