Provision For Your Needs

As you read this article you have some kind of need in your life. It may be a big need or a small need, but we all have needs. Notice I said needs and not wants. There is one sure way to have all your needs met. In fact it is the only way to have them all met. Many times we think we have a physical need when in reality it is a spiritual need. When we get the spiritual part of our life right then the physical needs God will supply. There is only one source for all mankind's needs. The bible tells us that God will supply our every need.       Philippians 4:19 (NKJV) 
¹⁹ And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

For God to supply our every need we must be seeking first His Kingdom and His righteousness.               Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) 
³³ But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
 His promise in this scripture is all the things you will need in life will be added to you. So if you have a need seek after God's Kingdom and His righteousness. You seek after God by first of all coming to know God by entering into a  personal relationship with Him through His Son Jesus Christ. You do this by asking Jesus to forgive your sins against God. Then invite Jesus into your life to take charge of you. Then be baptized and begin to attend regularly the church where you are baptized. Begin to read God's word daily, pray daily, and live your life in obedience to God. When you come to God through His Son Jesus Christ you become a child of God.

Galatians 4:6-7 (NLT) 
⁶ And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father.”
⁷ Now you are no longer a slave but God’s own child. And since you are his child, God has made you his heir.
Let's look at those scriptures. Verses six says when we become God's children, God sends the Spirit of His Son into our hearts. The Spirit of God's Son in us prompts us to call out to our "Daddy, Father." Now we are no longer slaves to sin and the devil, but we are God's own children. Then verse 7 goes on to say that since we are His children, God has made us an heir of everything He owns. Our Father God owns it all because He made everything and He keeps it all together. Now if God is our Father, is there anything He would withhold from us. 

Romans 8:32 (NLT)
³² Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? Look at this verse. What a promise God has given us! Not only did God give up Jesus for us, but He goes on to say that He will give us everything else we need through Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord.

So, we conclude from God's word that there is nothing He will not give us who are His children. So, if you are God's child, you will never have a need that God can't meet. Your part  is to seek God's kingdom and His way of  righteous living and all the other things you need will be added. This is God's word to us. Don't listen to the devils voice any longer. Our part is to believe what God has said and seek after Him and His righteousness. Then we can claim God's provisions for our needs. There is no where else to go to find the things we need in life. No one or no thing can give us all the needs we have in this life and the life to come.

Get your needs met by getting to know God in a personal way as described earlier in this article and then live for Him by the power of His Spirit He has placed within you. When you do these things, God will keep His promise to meet your every need.

 Philippians 4:19 (NKJV) 

¹⁹ God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. He said it, let's believe it and then receive it by Christ Jesus our Lord.

I close by praying for all your needs to be met according to God's word because He can not lie. Seek God daily and watch what happens. What have you got to lose but your needs. Believe and receive in Jesus' name. Amen! Hallelujah!

Is God Able?

This is the question we will all have to face in our lives at one time or another. As we face the trials and tests of this life on earth, we will all be looking for an answer to help us out of, around or through every situation. When people have tried all the things the world has to offer and those things have failed them, then they will look to God with this question. Is God able to deliver us from what we are going through? Is God able to do anything with this mess in my life? This happened to the Israelite's as they journeyed through the wilderness.                                                                                                                                        Psalms 78:19 (HCSB) 
¹⁹ They spoke against God, saying, “Is God able to provide food in the wilderness? As you read this chapter you will find that they had seen God deliver them time and time again. He gave them water from the rock in the wilderness. He sent them manna  from above to eat and sustain them while they were in the wilderness. God had delivered them from bondage in Egypt by parting the red sea. He led them by a cloud in the daytime and a cloud of fire at night. He had worked so many miracles for them and took care of their every need but in verse 19 they still questioned God's desire and ability to provide for them through every circumstance and situation. We look at this and wonder where their brain was. We don't understand how they could question God's ability to provide for them at all times because of what God had already done for them in the past.                                                                                                      Psalms 78:41 (NKJV) 

⁴¹ Yes, again and again they tempted God, And limited the Holy One of Israel. Their attitude deeply hurt and wounded God's heart. Their actions tempted God to let them wander in the wilderness for 40 years. And their actions limited God from acting on their behalf then and in the future.  

But, are we guilty of doing the same thing? Are we tempting God to let us wander on in our misery, pain, and suffering? Has God reached the limit of His ability in your life and is not able to lead you on to new places and new resources and new developments? Surely He can do new things in all of our lives. The bible tells us with God nothing is impossible.(Luke 1:37)     

Yes, God can do new things in our lives. Unheard of- hidden things that will bless us. May we enlarge our hearts and not tempt or limit God from doing His work in our lives. Think of it, the only thing greater than God's ability to move in our lives is the limits we impose on Him through our unbelief. Yes, you and I can limit the very God who made everything and who keeps it intact. We must desire and believe God to work in our lives. Then we will see great and mighty things we know not. We will miss many pitfalls and problems in our lives as we allow Him to lead, guide, and direct our way. We must ask and look for unheard of things. We must set our faith on Him. He  is more than ready to do wonderful exploits in our lives and the lives of our families and those around us. He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than we could ask or think according to the power that works in us. (Ephesians 3:20)

God is ready and willing to surpass all our expectations as we trust and believe in His willingness and ability to do great things in our lives. 

If you don't know God personally and you have never been forgiven of your sins against Him, you can come to personally know Him and have your sins forgiven by asking Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and by inviting Jesus to live in you, take charge of your life and do these great exploits in your life. Read the scriptures at the bottom of this page to help you understand what you need to do.

He is waiting for your decision, what will it be?  

Remember God is able!
