Last time we discussed “enlarging your capacity”, nyour ability to receive, hold or absorb. Your npotential for growth or development. Your ncapacity to believe and receive.

We talked about several items used to contain nwater, a glass, water pitcher, bucket, pond, nriver and an ocean.

The containers represented your mental capacity nto believe and receive and the water symbolizes nyour blessings (wisdom, knowledge, opportunities, nfavor etc.).

Each container could receive and hold water but nthe amount of there volume varies from small to nenormous. We imagined that you were a glass n(your mental capacity to believe and receive) nand I was a water pitcher (my mental capacity to nbelieve and receive). And I poured out my blessings n(wisdom, knowledge, opportunities, favor etc.)But nyou could only receive and contain equal to the ncapacity to which the glass was designed.
In other words you became full long before my ncapacity to pour out was exhausted.

I concluded that it stands to reason that if nyou want increase you must “enlarge your capacity”
I further illustrated that it would be silly of me nas a water pitcher to become bitter, envious or njealous of the bucket, pond, river and ocean.
Because if the bucket, pond, river or ocean were nto pour out all of their contents (wisdom, knowledge, nopportunities, favor etc.) into me.

As a person with water pitcher mental capacity to nbelieve and receive. I would only be able to receive nand hold the capacity of my mental capacity to nbelieve and receive. Your accumulations in life ngood and bad are related to your capacity to believe nand receive.

Today I want to share some methods and resources nyou can use to “Enlarge Your Capacity.” When Jesus nwanted His followers to expand their capacity,
He reminded them, “You can’t put new wine into old nwineskins.” You cannot become an ocean if your nattitude is restricted to that of a glass.

You must stop dwelling on negative, destructive nthoughts that keep you in mediocrity. You cannot nenlarge capacity until you first change your thinking.
You must conceive it in your heart and mind before nyou can receive it. Start seeing yourself in a new nlight, see yourself living in that new home, as a nsuccessful business person, and envision yourself nas a prospecting magnet.

Get rid of small minded thinking, Think Big.
Think Abundance. “Enlarge Your Capacity.”

YOU ARE JUST A STEP AWAY!
