God Will Meet All Of Our Needs

"And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus"
-Philippians 4:19

Sometimes we run into trouble.  There will be times when we wonder how on earth will we pay those bills that keep piling up.  We wonder and worry about our immediate future and wonder of we will have enough money to live on.  We look at the change of the seasons and we wonder if we will be able to afford fuel to heat our homes.  Then we look at our grocery bills and notice that the prices are on the rise.  We live in a world where everything seems to be rising except our paychecks.  

We work hard and we try to save, but we just can't seem to get ahead no matter how hard we try.  The Lord knows our needs greater than we know them.  He is more than capable to help us and He will.  The Lord promises to meet all of our genuine needs.  That means the Lord will provide for us everything that we truly need.

Our problem is sometimes we confuse what we want with what we truly need.  I want a new tripod for my camera, but I don't really desperately need a new tripod for my camera.  I might not want the job I have, but I know in order to pay my car payment and other bills I need to keep working at it.

Sometimes we want to stay in the same place where we have lived for years, but the Lord may have other plans for us.  The Lord always provides for us.  We just need to trust Him more.  We don't know what is around the next corner, but the Lord knows and He is already there.  

May we continue to seek the Lord and trust Him wherever He leads us.  

Lord,

Thank You for providing for us.

We praise Your Name.

Help us to trust and obey You.

Lead us and guide us by Your Holy Spirit.

In Jesus Name we pray,

Amen.
