Beloved, trust you are doing well today.
We started yesterday with, “The Lord is my portion.” Today, we are going a step further: The Lord is my provider.
I don't know if you did as I did yesterday, in my prayers throughout yesterday, I kept saying "THE LORD IS MY PORTION."
Life can sometimes make us feel worried. The bills pile up, needs keep coming, and dreams feel far away. We wonder, “Will I ever have enough? Who will take care of me?” In the middle of these questions, God’s Word gives us a beautiful promise:
Philippians 4:19 – “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Notice what the verse says—all your need. Not some, not a few, but all. This doesn’t mean God gives us everything we want, but it means He provides exactly what we truly need at the right time. He knows us better than we know ourselves.
Think of a little child. A good parent makes sure the child has food, clothes, and shelter. The child doesn’t sit and worry every night about tomorrow’s meal. Why? Because they trust their parent. In the same way, God is our Father, and we can trust Him to provide.
Jesus Himself told us not to worry about what we will eat, drink, or wear.
Matthew 6:31–32 – “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.”
Why worry, when your Father already knows you need them? Instead of filling your heart with fear, fill it with faith. The same God who feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field is the same God who cares for you.
Matthew 6:26 – “Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?”
When the Israelites walked through the desert, they had no farms, no shops, no markets. Yet, God gave them manna every single day. He was their provider. That same God is still alive today. If He could feed millions in a dry desert, He can surely take care of you.
Psalm 34:10 – “The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.”
So today, let your heart rest. Instead of saying, “What if I don’t have enough?” begin to say, “The Lord is my provider. I will not lack.”
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for being my provider. Help me to trust You more and worry less. Open my eyes to see the many ways You are already caring for me. I choose to rest in Your promise today. Amen.
Life Application:
Each time worry rises today, whisper Matthew 6:32 to yourself: “My Father knows that I have need of these things.” Write down at least three ways God has already provided for you, and let that truth quiet your heart.
My hands in yours.
