October 5 Devotion - Depend Totally on God

 

In Him we live and move and have our being,

 لاننا به نحيا ونتحرك ونوجد.

 Acts 17:28

 We have a constant and absolute dependence on God and He is continually sustaining us. Our absolute dependence on God is such that we owe to Him the ability to perform even the slightest motion. We owe to Him our continued and prolonged existence.

 What is your most pressing need today? Financial, emotional, social, a new direction for your career? Peace with your children? Having a successful marriage? Getting married? Whatever your need, God has an answer:

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

لكن اطلبوا اولا ملكوت الله وبره وهذه كلها تزاد لكم .

Matthew 6:25–34

 What does God have to do with schools, cars, relationships, money, or investments? Everything. As the Source and Supply of all our needs—material or otherwise—God is the Ultimate Giver. His wisdom, love, and sovereignty work on our behalf, regardless of the complexity, urgency, or practicality of our needs.

When we seek God first, He promises to supply every necessity, just as He does for the birds of the air.

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

انظروا الى طيور السماء .انها لا تزرع ولا تحصد ولا تجمع الى مخازن .وابوكم السماوي يقوتها .ألستم انتم بالحري افضل منها .

Matthew 6:26

 

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You that in You I have my being. LORD, I pray that out of Your glorious riches You strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that I confidently trust in Your absolute goodness and I can stay focused on Your Kingdom and Your righteousness. God I know that as Your child You will take care of me and remove any anxiety I may have over the future and You will provide all I need in Your time. Thank You Lord for loving me with a deep and everlasting love, thank You for Your abundant blessings in my life, and for the riches of Your grace upon my life. Lord God, I praise You, glorify You, stand in awe of You and lift You up on high. Now to Him who is able to carry out His purpose and do infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Ephesians 3:20-21 (AMP) Amen.

 

Jesus loves you,

In Him,
