GOD'S SUPPLY AND OUR NEED 1

Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Introduction:
The Apostle Paul is writing to the church in Philippi concerning their care of him. He had been writing to them through the book because they were inclined to fall away from salvation by grace and revert back to salvation by works. We often seem to forget that God loves us and His grace supplies all our spiritual needs. God is able to supply our physical needs as well.
The church had provided for the material needs of Paul and Paul realized that it was God providing for him through this church. Sometimes we unrealistically expect God just to give us what we need in some mysterious and miraculous fashion.
God provides for our physical needs through our jobs and businesses. He gives us the physical abilities, the intellect and the opportunity to earn a living. These are things we should be thankful for every day and give thanks to God for them.
As we study these next few devotionals we need to come to an understanding that there is a huge difference between our needs and our wants. May God bless you as you read these devotionals each day.
Please feel free to contact me by email at

If you know of someone new to the Kosciusko area and would like for our church to visit them please let us know. Our prayers are that this devotional ministry will be an outreach to bring people into a closer relationship with Jesus. I do appreciate you taking the time to read these devotionals and please keep us in your prayers.
