Jesus Wants You To Have Abundant Life – Part…
Jesus Wants You To Have Abundant Life – Part 3
Jesus is the source of abundant life, offering more than just physical existence and life. Jesus provides spiritual life, fulfillment, peace, and purpose. In the Bible, Jesus promises that those who come to Him will experience life to the fullest (John 10:10).
This abundant life is not defined by material wealth, but by a deep, transformative relationship with God. It is characterized by love, grace, and eternal hope. Through His teachings, sacrifice, and resurrection, Jesus invites people to experience true joy, freedom, and peace, both now and forever.

In Part 1 and Part 2 of “Jesus Wants You To Have Abundant Life” we studied how Jesus wants to fill you with many spiritual riches. And how Jesus wants to give you a full and abundant life. The world offers many things that seemingly lead to an abundant and full life filled with meaning, purpose, joy, peace, happiness… But nothing in the world can give you what Jesus can. Only Jesus can truly give you abundant life. And also eternal life in heaven.

Jesus Wants You To Have Abundant Life – He Will Meet All Of Your Other Needs
Whatever you need Jesus wants to supply it. And He wants to supply it in overflowing abundance. The mistake most people make are they do not recognize that Jesus is the only One who can supply all of these things.
Most people look to the things of the world, or to other people to supply them. And sooner or later they find out that the things of the world promise many things, but rarely ever deliver. And the result is disappointment, discouragement, bitterness, and hopelessness.
Here are more of the spiritual riches that make up abundant life that Jesus wants to provide.

2 Corinthians 12:7-10 “Because of the extraordinary greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me – to keep me from exalting myself ! Concerning this I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might leave me. And He has said to me “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in distresses, in persecutions, in difficulties, in behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.”
Philippians 4:12-13 “I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.”

I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.”
1 Timothy 6:6-8 “But godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment. For we have brought nothing into the world, so we cannot take anything out of it either. If we have food and covering, with these we shall be content.”

For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and reliable and one which enters within the veil.”
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 “Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
(also read Psalm 38:22, 42:5, 71:4-5)
