Abundance is a sparingly used word in today’s culture. Instead, what we see in the world today is excess. Excess is not abundance. Excess in and of itself has a negative connotation of being lavish, but heaping only upon ourselves. Excess is the perversion of abundance.God’s purpose has never changed with regards to abundance. He is El Shaddai which means more than enough. In other words, abundance. He wants us to be fully supplied and thoroughly furnished so we can be God’s instrument of blessing in the earth. Abundance is God’s means for us to be lavishly blessed with enough left over to lavish on others. It’s a promise far too few of us have dared to believe.
