Welcome to the podcast of Jonathan David and Melissa Helser. Our prayer is that you would

encounter God's heart as you listen today. In this episode, Jonathan shares on cultivating

a life of overflow in friendship with God and the importance of becoming a leader who

is rooted and rest.

Let's stay standing for a second. This is your last teaching before lunch. You hanging

in there? Let's just let's take a moment and sing to the Lord to get our hearts back

on his face. I love this old song. We used to sing it at summer camp.

Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary pure and holy.

Try to true with things giving. I'll be your living sanctuary for you.

Thank you, Lord. I ask Holy Spirit you would increase our capacity. You would kiss us with

wisdom and revelation. You would open the eyes of our heart to see who you truly are God.

And in those eyes, we would see who we are as your beloved. Come fill this room of fresh

Jesus name. Amen. Okay, guys, I want to open with one of my favorite verses in the Bible.

This is Ephesians 2, chapter 2, verse 6 through 10. God has raised us up with Christ Jesus

and seated us with him in the heavenly realms. In order that in the coming ages, he might

show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed to us in his kindness and Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved. Through faith, this is not from yourselves, it

is a gift from God. Not by works, so no man can boast. For we are God's handiwork, we

are His craftsmanship, His masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God

prepared us in advance to do. You're created to do great things. You have an inheritance.

It's beyond what you could ask or imagine. And I declare over each of you, your inheritance

is not burnout in ministry. Your inheritance is not burnout. Your inheritance is abundance.
