In the King James or any other Bible, you will not find the exact phrase “God will not fill a cup that is already full”. But this phrase should encourage all of us to take a good look at our life; what all it entails that is not conducive to God’s Word, Will, or Way. What is missing the reason things seem to be always going south? Are we, out of ignorance allowing ourselves to be filled with something other than what is in the LORD’s cup. Understand this, that if you are not filled with that of God (which does not allow us to receive what He has for us) then you are being filled with that of Satan. Even though it is not written in the bible, as it is said, behind this saying is supported by scripture. (1 Corinthians 10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils).
God will not fill a cup that is already full is the fundamental truth and proposition that serves as the foundation for the working of God’s. His way is so much higher than ours and His expectations (although high) are to stretch our abilities and capabilities for His glory and the good of our fellow man. But when we are carrying around stuff that goes against His plan for our lives, it makes it hard for us to see much less receive, His blessings, benefits, teachings, guidance, and yes chastisement; all that’s needed for a full abundant life, according to our Father, which is the only way. It is His perfect way of doing things in our system of belief which determines what type of behavior or approach we engage in, to the chain of the reasoning process.
YHWH, God can do all things, there is nothing too hard for Him, but He will not fill a cup that is already full of stuff. That is why He ask you and me to come to Him, seek Him first so that you will have no doubt as to Who and what we need in our life. Other than Himself, God is all the righteous stuff we need to give us a cup, one that is already full, one that overflows. So, in order for Him to fill us up, until we overflow with His good and righteousness, we must rid our spiritual cup of all the ungodly, negative, contrary things. Those things we hold on to and carry around with us such as hate, pride, greed, malice, backbiting, murmuring, complaining, deceitfulness, and all other negative and ill-willed actions toward our Father and brothers and sisters. Don’t say you don’t have any, because all of us do. Admit it and start daily, continue to seek (even as you fall, get up) to obtain the good fruit to fill your cup. Yes, it will be hard because old habits die hard, but steadfastness in Jesus will prevail as you develop new ones and continue seeking. You may (probably will) fall because you are not accustomed to turning your life over to God. But we must get up to obtain the good fruit to fill our cup, depend on God, and allow Him to fill our lives, to overflowing from His cup of grace and mercy. (Psalm 23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over).
This fullness for your spiritual cup, (which we must strive and make a consorted effort to open our hearts to God, in Jesus’ name), should be filled with what God has for us, which includes: no fear but faith, doing good with much gratitude, being content and courageous, showing commitment with compassion, promoting peace through practicing patience, talking truth from trust, reaping our righteous rewards, and welcoming wisdom through the knowledge of knowing and understanding His Word, Yashua, Jesus.
So, instead of filling our cup with what Satan/world has for us, we give our minds, hearts, and souls over to God to be filled with God’s goodness, Jesus. When we do, there is nothing we cannot do as long as goals and efforts remain in line with His will; having all that we need, from Him, assures us the content of our character, that which fills our cup. Once we have allowed God to fill our cup with True Life, Jesus (the Light of the world) the path to true love for one another and righteousness toward each other is so much brighter and becomes clearer. And no matter the darkness, laid upon it, you will be able to see all the good and righteous stuff, from YHWH, God we need to fill our cup, to be able to walk in total victory; but first we must empty out the old and let our Father replace it with the new; we are now fully restored. GOD’S GOT IT, NO WORRY, NO FEAR.
