Provision

“he is, who he has declared me to be, and then his provisions in my life. Because if I focus first on the provisions, then as soon as the perceived provisions stop, it impacts my level of thanksgiving. But who he is, that'll never change. Who he has declared me to be, that'll never change. And so then I can trust the provision piece of it all the more”

“when we constantly remind ourselves of that truth. So joy is experienced through God's provision, but not God's provision in the things that he gives, but God's provision in the fact that he gives us himself. The fourth thing I want us to see in the text is that joy is found in obedience to the counsel of God's word. Joy is found in the obedience or in obedience to the counsel of God's word.”

“provide for you. Your money, your savings account doesn't provide for you. The provisions of your life and my life are provisions of God. And every day we must recognize his divine care and provision for us in and through all things. But the problem is we tend to separate and compartmentalize the biggies of life and the little things of life. We're all in to what might be called God's”

“we are we now have experienced it for eternity we have it in our hands it cannot be taken away and he will continue to show off in our world until we enter into his kingdom fully and he is inviting you today to experience his provision in every area of your life but it always starts with eternal provision have you experienced god's eternal provision for salvation can you say”

“Now, when this happened, the good news is that God did not just push us to the side. He didn't just throw us away. But what he did is he created a plan. And so now we see God's provision. We have sinned. We've fallen short of the glory of God. But then we see God's provision. And his provision is this, that the father sent his son, Jesus. To live a perfect life, a life that none of us could live, and to ultimately be nailed to the cross and experience the most humiliating death that you could ever experience.”

“Church, when we recognize that the shepherd is all that we need, when he becomes the source, and we're not running to all of these other things, then we will live out this provision and this promise that the lord is my shepherd i shall not want and so we've seen the problem of the season we've seen the promise of the psalm the final thing that i want you to see is the provision of this christ of christmas and the provision the thing that psalm 23 promises is peace isaiah 9 6 said for to us a child is born to us a son”

“Number two, provision. Paul writes to Timothy an instruction for the members of his church saying this in 1 Timothy 5.8, but if anyone does not provide for his relatives and especially for the members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Worse than an unbeliever. Not a disappointment, not a work in progress. Worse than an unbeliever. Man, take that seriously. This begins with financial provision. That's a non-negotiable,”

“and we take it out of the biblical context and we basically say, I want to make my family rich. That's not what provision is. Provision is working hard to provide for the needs of your family. But never at the expense of your family. Guys, we've got to step up as leaders of our family to lead them in the word and not just let our wives do it in our absence. We must not lose our family at the altar of your work.”
