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

Have you ever gone through a time of complete dependence on God for
your material needs? Perhaps you lost a job and could not generate
income on your own. Perhaps you got sick and could not work. There
are circumstances in our lives that can put us in this place.

When God brought the people of Israel out of Egypt through the
desolate desert they had no ability to provide for themselves. God
met their needs supernaturally each day by providing manna from
Heaven. Each day they would awake to one day's portion of what they
needed. This was a season in their lives to learn dependence and the
faithfulness of God as provider. By and by, they entered the Promised
Land. When they did, God's "supernatural provision" was no longer
required. "The manna stopped the day after they ate this food from
the land; there was no longer any manna for the Israelites, but that
year they ate of the produce of Canaan" (Joshua 5:12). In both cases
God was the provider of the need.

For most of us, we derive our necessities of life through our work.
Like the birds of the fields we are commanded to go out and gather
what God has already provided. It is a process of participation in
what God has already provided. Sometimes it appears it is all up to
us; sometimes it appears it is all up to God. In either case we must
realize that the Lord is our provider; the job is only an instrument
of His provision. He requires our involvement in either case. "You
may say to yourself, 'My power and the strength of my hands have
produced this wealth for me.' But remember the Lord your God, for it
is He who gives you the ability to produce your fullfilled need(Deuteronomy 8:17).

Acknowledge the Lord as the provider of every need you have today. He
is a faithful provider.

Remember that tho the storms of life may rage & stir things up, cause chaos and at times many hurts, etc...In the end, It can unearth the most beautiful of treasure! Keep Holding on to Jesus thru the storm & He will indeed show you the beauty of life after its all settled & peaceful, Its His Plan!
