I have gained provision
2 Corinthians 9:8 – And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.
People can be funny about money, especially Christians. We don’t want to be seen having ‘too much’ money, because we have to be humble, right?
But our key scripture today hits the nail on the head – God promises to generously provide for us, not just to meet our needs, but so that we can also help others. This shows us the heart of God. He wants to bless us so that we can bless others and have enough for every good work.
So today pray and ask God to bless your finances, to get out of debt, to not just live pay-to-pay. This isn’t a selfish or greedy prayer. Provision is a God-given inheritance, but we have to be wise about how we manage our finances. Ask God to prepare your heart as well so that when God blesses you, you would peacefully, joyfully and freely bless others.
Prayer: God, thank You that I can come to You boldly and ask for a breakthrough in my finances. Thank You that as my Father, You provide for me and meet all my needs. Lord I’m asking that You prepare my heart and my hands to be generous, so that I can help others as You provide for me and bless me. Your Word says in Matthew 6:33 that if I seek You and put You first, You will provide everything I need. Help me Lord to always put You front and centre in my life. In Jesus name, amen.
