Meeting the Need

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19 ESV

Morning Men of God,

There are needs all around us. Our wives, our kids, our jobs. In all directions there is something or someone pulling on us. As providers and protectors we sometimes take on the responsibility to meet all of these needs. That is noble , but also not biblical. Our text today shows us that God supplies all of our needs. Not just ours, but the needs of our loved ones as well. Sure, HE may use us as a vessel to meet the need, but that is HIS choice. Our position should always he one of prayer and surrender. God will meet the needs of those around us however he wishes. Focusing on meeting the needs of every situation leads to being overworked, anxious, and stressed. We are not built to handle such pressure. When we focus on Jesus, and fix our eyes on HIM, he will lead our efforts to the appropriate needs. Trying to accomplish everything at all times means we actually accomplish nothing, all the time. Today, I encourage you to step your "Prayer Game" up. Allow the Creator to guide your efforts. Fostering a loving prayer relationship with the Father is the beginning of hearing his voice and following his directions.

Love you Guys!

Patrick
