THE GOD OF ABUNDANCE

And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
Are you facing a lack in any area of your life, be it finances, health or relationships? Know that in that very same area, God has already prepared His superabundant supply for you. Our heavenly Father is the source of all abundance. When we consistently experience lack in our lives, it is an indication that something is wrong with our fellowship with Him.
In John 6:1-13, Jesus was with a large crowd of people who were hungry. The problem then was a lack of food. But Jesus knew that where there is lack, there is superabundant supply in His Father's kingdom to overcome that lack. His disciples, however, did not know that. They did not think the same way as Jesus did. They told Him that there was a boy with five loaves and two small fish, but they did not think that that would amount to anything. They said, "What are the five loaves and two fish among so many?"
They saw only the problem, the lack. But Jesus took the little, lifted it up as He looked to heaven and gave thanks to His Father, whose supply is so much more than we can ever ask for. When Jesus started distributing the little that was in His hands, a miracle happened. Five thousand men, not counting women and children, ate as much as they wanted.
God wants us to always be conscious of His grace abounding toward us and enveloping us. So let us, like Jesus, acknowledge God's superabundant supply by thanking Him for it. Let us believe that His superabundant supply will flow towards us to meet all our needs.
Prayer: Thank God for His abundant provision for you and your family; release the supernatural abundant provision into your life.
Scriptural Reading: Philippians 4:10-20
