Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

Well, God bless you and thanks for being with us today.

And if you're ever in our area, please stop by and be a part of one of our services.

I promise you, we'll make you feel right at home. I like to start with something funny each week, and they're just a joke. Don't be offended. I heard about this man. He was sitting in a dark restaurant, and he said to the ladies sitting next to him, would you like to hear a blonde joke? She said, well, before you tell me,

you should know that I'm blonde, six foot tall, and a professional bodybuilder. The lady next to me

is blonde, six foot two, and a professional wrestler. And the lady next to her is blonde, six

foot five, and the kickboxing champion of the world. Now, do you still want to tell

me? He thought about it a moment, said, no, not if I'm going to have to explain it three times.

I'm going to need a ride home today, but anyway, say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.

Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess, my mind is alert, my heart is receptive.

I will never be the same in Jesus' name. God bless you. I want to talk to you today about asking big. When God laid out the plan for

your life, he didn't just put what you need to get by, to survive, to endure. He put more than enough.

He's a God of abundance. And we see this all through the scripture. When Jesus multiplied the little

boy's lunch, five lobes of bread and two fish, after thousands of people ate, there were 12

baskets full left over. And what's interesting is they had counted the people beforehand.

Jesus knew how many were in the crowd that day. If he wanted to be exact,

he could have made it where there would be no leftovers. On purpose, he made more than enough.

That's the God we serve. David said, my cup runs over. He had an abundance more than he needed.
