Daily Bread – March 14, 2022 (The Second Day – Genesis 1:6-8) Matthew 6:30 – But if God clothes the field, which today is and tomorrow is cast into the oven – how much more you, you of little faith? Father Provides By Faith How can we possibly be concerned with the basic essentials of our existence, like food and clothing, when we realize how important we are to God? We are so valuable to God that He purchased us with the life of His Only Begotten Son! Therefore, we should be confident He will also give us all things by Him (Romans 8:32). He has made our bodies His Holy Spirit dwelling place; should He do anything less than cloth them? (1 Corinthians 3:17, 6:19). He has made us co-inheritors with Jesus; should we not then be certain all of our food will be taken care of? (Romans 8:17; Philippians 4:19). We may be confident those who seek the Lord will not lack any good thing (Psalm 34:10). We must not fail to realize that as the redeemed of the Lord, we have a more secure title and right to the possession of earthly provisions than all others. We must come to realize that our Heavenly Father is involved with the most minute details of our lives (Matthew 10:30). When we become conscious of His mindfulness of us and the living reality of His Presence in us, then our eyes will be opened to a faith realm that knows and believes the love God has for us (Ephesians 1:18-21, 3:17-21; 2 Kings 6:17; 1 John 4:16). Dear saints, we are not on our own to fend for ourselves! The Almighty – the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth – is our Savior, Protector and Provider. Faith that walks with God is the cure for the poison of fear and worry (Hebrews 11:5-6). Set your affections on things above, and seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all you have need of will be provided. God will cause all grace to abound to you: so that you will have all sufficiency in all things (Colossians 3:1-3; Matthew 6:33; 2 Corinthians 9:8; Philippians 4:19).
