God Is Our Provider
“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus” - Philippians 4:19
God is in the business of providing your needs. That may include food, water, and shelter, which are basic needs for survival. And it also may include the restoration of your spirit in the midst of brokenness. We need to remember that our God is our Provider. I love what Paul writes in Philippians when He says, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
Maybe you need to be reminded today that it is God who provides for you, not your employer. God may choose to use your employer to be the channel, the mechanism by which He will meet your needs. But it is ultimately God and God alone who supplies your needs.
In fact, the Bible makes it clear that God gives us the ability to earn wealth. Even the abilities that you have to earn a living come from God. He uses your abilities and the situation or employment that you are in to provide for you.
He may choose to use a rich uncle who passed away to meet a need in your life. You might say “untimely,” but it meets a need in your life. He might bring another person into your life who had no idea what your need was and chooses to bless you. You needed a word of encouragement, and He brought that person into your life when you needed it. As His children, there is nothing that we need that He doesn't supply.

I need to be showing more of the love of Jesus. May His love flow more freely from within me. Otherwise, I need someone who works on cars to tell me what I need to do to heal my car.
I can help heal your car through the love of Jesus. Email "hope" at untohimiam.me and I will do my best to get you rolling 🙂
My wages are cut in half. I need the wisdom of God to know what to do. I am 76 yrs young, and work from home. I know this is not Gods will for me.
If you know not, then you know what is, God's will for you. Do that and glorify Him. Pray and read scripture daily and God will provide the answers to your requests when they are in His will for you. You may not like His answers but it is His will, not yours. You must have faith and redeem all your sins. It's your relationship with Christ Jesus thats most important. Your youth and the truth shall set you free!
