Just some scriptures that the Lord has given me to remind me of just who provides for me. He is in control of my everything, and I am sure if I were to look back on my life and some of the testimonies I've given over the past month or so I would be reminded of how I know that. All things still work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose-that's me!
Ezekiel 36:9, 11, 29 & 30:
For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown: . . .And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bring fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do better unto you than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the Lord. . . I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you. And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
Matthew 7:7, 8 & 11
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. . . If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Now, why was I so worried about paying my bills, getting doctor's appointments and such taken care of, having our vehicles maintained, buying new clothes, providing a nice Christmas/first birthday for my daughter, etc? The word just said that I have no reason to worry or be afraid that I won't be taken care of-God is going to increase, not decrease me and my family and I believe that goes for the spiritual as well as the natural. He has promised me that no famine will be laid upon me and I won't have the shame of a famine among those who aren't believers. All I have to do is ask, seek and knock and I will receive, find and have doors opened for me. I know how to do good for my girl, so how much more good will the Lord do for me, His girl? It's not because I'm so great that all these things are done on my behalf-it's because God is so great. It's because He promised it to me. It's because I am one of His chosen ones. It's because He loves me. Rejoice with me-the promises of God are intended for you, too!
