The earth is the Lord’s, and He abundantly supplies everything we will ever need in our lifetime (Psalm 24:1-3). There is no lack in an authentic Believer’s life, unless we want something that is not good for us either now or later in our life. Our Father God knows the end from the beginning, and He wants only the best for us (Isaiah 46:9-11).
As we walk in His ways and wait on His timing, He not only provides for us physically through His Son, Jesus Christ, but also mentally, emotionally, financially, and spiritually (Philippians 4:10). His love, joy, and peace are our constant companions through life, regardless of our circumstances.
His grace abounds to us and is sufficient regardless of whatever life throws at us; His strength is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). We can succeed in all our endeavors, as long as we live according to the guidance of His Spirit rather than by our human resources (2 Corinthians 9:8).
God’s supply exceeds our wildest imaginations, goals, ideals, and plans. He is constantly working with us and in us and through us (Ephesians 3:20). When we ask for His supply in Jesus’ name, He gives us everything we need to perform His will for us. This ignites our fullness of joy.
The Lord commands blessings for us and He even increases our supply in our storehouse. Everything He leads us to do is blessed by Him (Deuteronomy 28:8). Our ability to traverse life’s rocky path increases, and He often makes our way smooth for us (John 16:24; Isaiah 26:7).
When we seek first His Kingdom and holiness, He showers us with His blessings (Matthew 6:33). We ask, and He supplies; we seek and He gives us His wisdom to find what we need; we knock and He opens doors for us that no one can close (Matthew 7:7-8). He is our supply of every good and perfect gift (James 1:17).
Prayer:
Father God, thank You for withholding from us those items and relationships that we think we want and need, but that are not truly good for us or our future. Teach us to walk in Your ways and to patiently wait on Your timing in all things. Thank You also for Your love, joy, and peace that pervade our life regardless of the trials that we experience. Your abundant grace covers our life and Your strength within us perfects our weaknesses.
Teach us to walk by the direction of Your Holy Spirit within us. We willingly submit to Your reproof, Your correction, and Your instruction that thoroughly furnish what we need to perform the good works that You ordained for us before we were ever born (2 Timothy 3:16-17; Ephesians 2:10). Due to Your blessings in our life, we spend the bulk of our time worshiping You as our Creator, Provider, Savior, and King.
Thought for the Day:
Satan only comes to us to steal, kill, and destroy our life; however, God sent Jesus to give us abundant life both in this world and in the next; since God blesses us with every good and perfect gift of spiritual blessings and earthly provision, we turn our gratitude into praise to our Father God, the same Father we share with Jesus Christ.
