Philippians 4:19
But my God shall supply all your
need
according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
So Paul assured the believers at Philippi,
and so He assures us.
They had many wants, so have we; they were
dependent upon God, and so are we.
The Lord is engaged to supply them, and He is
engaged to supply us.
The Lord was faithful to them, and He will be
faithful to us.
His absolute promises are our invaluable
treasures; His unchangeability is our immutable security.
While Jehovah lives, we cannot be friendless,
we shall never be left to want; and at last we shall be able to testify, “Not
one thing hath failed of all that the Lord our God hath promised."
We can this morning, rejoice and say, “The
Lord, hath blessed me hitherto. Thou hast dealt well with Thy servant, O Lord,
according to Thy word.”
Our wants should remind us of God’s promises,
the promises should be used to quell our fears, and comfort our hearts.
We know not what a day will bring forth; but
we know that “our God will supply our all our needs according to His riches in
glory by Christ Jesus.“
Let this banish care, let us rejoice in the
Lord as our provider.
He who supplies us will never fail us.
And Jesus is our store,
Grace issues from His throne;
Whosoever says, “I want no more“
Confesses he has none;
But they who come to be supplied,
Will find Jehovah doth provide.
James Smith
