Who is your provider?

The scriptures teach us that God is our ultimate provider. Most often look at their jobs as their provider, but frankly, jobs come and go. They can be available today, and gone tomorrow. It’s vital that we catch the revelation deep in our spirit that God is our provider. Opportunities can close down. Downsizing and layoffs can occur. But God is able to get provision over to us in unlimited ways because He is an unlimited God with unlimited provision and resources. He is actually the one that provides provision and resources for us on a daily basis. Not only that, when we are generous, He will multiply our resources so that we can continue to be generous with others. Your job might shut down, your bank might fail, your current opportunities might dry up, but always remember that God never fails, and He is the one that will open new doors of opportunity when the current one shuts down because He is our provider!

2 Corinthians 9:10 “Now He who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your seed for sowing [that is, your resources] and increase the harvest of your righteousness [which shows itself in active goodness, kindness, and love]”

What is your tongue proclaiming?

Most people today realize that their words have power and authority, but unfortunately do not harness nor control the words that come out of their mouths. An that is unfortunate because words can change outcomes. Words can heal or hurt, bring joy or sadness, bring forth truth or deception, unite or separate. Words are containers that carry emotions, wisdom, pictures, and beliefs. Proverbs 18:21 says: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit”. King David knew this, so he determined within himself to only speak of God’s righteousness all day long. He said this in Psalm 71:24 (HCSB):”Therefore, my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm will be disgraced and confounded”. He knew that God’s promises are living and active. David trusted God to shut down the attacks of his enemies. He knew that his enemies would be disgraced and confounded. James 4:7 says: “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you”. So as you submit to God this weekend, know that God has identified your enemies, and He is shutting down their attacks against you. The enemy has to flee. Be like David and let your tongue only speak of His righteousness all day long!
