Our Needs and God's Supply!!!

There is a verse in the Bible that I believe is on of the most practical we will ever encounter. Every single one of us faces needs. Sometimes those needs are beyond our own means. But, those are not the times to become anxious or to panic. And we should not give up in defeat as I am sure some of us do. It is at these times that God wants to draw from His unlimited storehouse to meet our needs as only He can. Our job is to trust in Him to meet our needs!

"And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:19

Do we believe God can meet the needs of our finances? Our health? Our children? Our parents? Our church? Scripture says we will never face a need for which God's provision is not more than adequate. And this promise appears over and over again in the Bible. We only need to read and lean upon God's Word, God's promises! If we are not experiencing God's bountiful provision, what is the problem? Is the difficulty with God? Could it be that we really do not believe that God stands ready to meet our every need?

Friends, the promise of God is that every resource of God is available to any child of God who will believe Him! No one has ever exhausted God's supply nor suffered a shortfall when trusting Him. That is the key: TRUST!!! Unfortunately, some of us Christians live as if God's abundant resources were not available to us. We are children of the King, but we live like beggars. The question is: Would the people close to us affirm that our life gives evidence of an unwavering belief that God will do what He said? Only you can answer that question! How are you meeting your needs today?

May God Richly Bless You Today!! H Trent!

Thinking About Calling Down Fire!?!

James and John were refered to as "the Sons of Thunder" in the Bible. When they discovered a Samaritan village that would not receive Jesus, they were fully prepared to call down fire to consume the entire community. "And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?" Luke 9:54. Maybe they felt that through such a show of power, the gospel message might be enhanced. The two brothers were willing to sacrifice the lives of the village in order to further the cause of the gospel. However, Jesus rebuked them! Later, the apostles heard that Samaria had responded to the gospel. Guess who was commissioned to go and help them receive the Holy Spirit? None other but Peter and John! It was God's purpose that the people not be destroyed but saved! God chose not to rain down fire on the village, but to shower it with His Holy Spirit! I wonder what w...

It Is Our Life!!!

One of the things that I find puzzling and troubling today is that so many of us Christians try to live the Christian life in this world today, without reading our Bibles! Many of us will occasionally give it a sporadic look, seeking a pithy thought to help us get through our day. This is sad. The Word of God is not merely a source of helpful suggestions, preventative warnings, or even inspirational thoughts . The Word of God is life itself! But, oh how foolish that many of us are, having the words of life right at our fingertips, and still not bothering to make time to sit down and go through it's pages. "For it is not a futile thing for you, because it is your life, and by this word you shall prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to possess." Deuteronomy 32:47. God gathered the nation of Israel at the edge of the Promised Land to review their pilgrimage with Him. They had just spent 40 years wandering the desert, on a journey that should have...

Into A Storm!!!

There are many believers today that think that because they are in Christ, they are free from trials and tribulations. Life will always be good. However, there are going to be times when storms will come to us. Some of those storms will be the result of the choices we have made, some of them will come as a result of attacks by others, some will come for reasons we don't understand, but some storms will come because Jesus has sent us into them. Consider our passage today: "Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowd. After He had dismissed them, He went up on a mountainside by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone, but the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it." Matthew 14:22-24 The disciples were commanded to get into a boat and go across the lake without the physical presence of Christ. They coul...
