Pursuing His Kingdom
Matthew 6:31 – 33 ‘So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek you first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things […]
We need to look up for our provision
People look to many things for their provision. To their husbands, to their bosses, to their careers, to their insurance or pension funds. God can use these, but they are not the ultimate source of provision. HE IS! Philippians 4:19 And it is He who will supply all your needs from His riches in glory because of…
God can do the impossible
He is the provider. James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. Everything good and perfect comes from God. He does not intend to change this. He is not variable or changing. The Bible says that…
Why pray when you can worry
God wants to provide for us, but we prefer to worry. Matthew 6:25 Don’t worry about things – food, drink, and clothes. For you already have life and a body – and they are far more important than what to eat and wear. We worry even though we shouldn’t. Matthew 6:26-27 Look at the birds!…
A spirit of poverty
Sometimes we think we were destined to have nothing. This is what Satan would have for us. He would like to rob us blind. John 10:10 The thief’s purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness. The world is tempting us on every side. It has bred a…
We have a provider
God is a provider. He wants to provide for us. In the same way a earthly father wants to provide for his children. So God wants to provide for us, only more than we could imagine. Philippians 4:19 And it is He who will supply all your needs from His riches in glory because of what Christ Jesus…
Because God is steadfast we can be steadfast
If we know His steadfast love in our lives, then we can be steadfast individuals. If, as a result of knowing this fact we will trust God, then we will have hearts that are steadfast and sure. Psalm 112:7 He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD. Isaiah…
God's steadfast love is faithful
We can completely depend on God’s steadfast love. God’s love will not fail us, it is never failing. God’s love for us is enduring and abiding. God loves us wholeheartedly. There is an old song we used to sing, ‘The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases. His mercies never come to an end.’ God’s love for us is…
God's steadfast love knows no end
God’s love for us knows no end. God’s love for us is relentless, it just does not let up. We may decide that God does not love us, but that does not change anything. We cannot exhaust God’s love. We cannot use it all up. There is a never-ending supply of God’s love towards us. Psalm 36:5 Your steadfast love,…
The steadfast love of God
In the Bible we see how God tells us that He is steadfast. Not only is God steadfast but He is also steadfast in a very particular aspect. It is the aspect of His love. God’s love for us is steadfast. Exodus 34:5-6 “I am Jehovah, the merciful and gracious God,” he said, “slow to anger and rich…
