Jesus Knows Our Innermost Needs - Part 651

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.(Philippians 4:19) When we have been through enough, we know that our Lord God and Saviour is able to make all grace abound to us so that in all things and at all times we have all we need to abound in every good work. (II Corinthians 9:8)

In Matthew chapter six, Jesus encouraged His followers to take no thought for tomorrow -- what they eat or what they shall drink, and indeed, what they should wear. For this is what non-believers do. "For after these things do the Gentiles seek." They run to and fro to ensure that there is enough for the days ahead. 

But as believers in Jesus, we can be confident that our Lord God and Saviour Jesus knows what we have need of. What does Jesus say? "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." (Matthew 6:33)

"Is not the life more than meat and the body than raiment?" Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself."

David wrote in Psalms 23, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want." Therefore, seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:33) And know too that Jesus never fails!
For we which have believed do enter into rest, as He said, "As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into My rest; although the works were finished from the foundation of the world." (Hebrews 4:3) The peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7) He will supply your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Trust in Jesus today. Stand in the offering plate.
