Overshadow

The weight of God's mission is too much. You must have his overshadowing to have the strength required for his mission.

Luke 1:34-35

Overshadow

To envelop in a haze of brilliancy; to invest with supernatural influence. Blue Letter Bible

If God’s favor means a weighty assignment in his Kingdom, how can you handle it?

The overshadowing of God on your life.

Mary was told she would carry the One promised from the beginning. And she had taken that class in middle school…she knew she hadn’t done what it takes to have a child.

And she also took the religion class that said everyone will look down on her…or even want to stone her.

She needed God to overshadow her. To envelop in brilliance. To put a supernatural influence in her life.

And you do too.

The weight of God’s mission is too much. You cannot do it on your own. You cannot live with a normal shadow on your life.

You need God’s shadow. You need God’s overshadowing by his Spirit.

The status quo becomes too easy, but you do not need God’s overshadowing to live out the status quo.

Lead people by the overshadowing God gives to you.
