Today’s Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT: And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.
The generosity of God is complete. Is there a difference between need and richness? Another scripture that impressed its truth and wonderment with me today was 2 Corinthians 8:9 where we are told that the poverty of Christ makes us rich. Although Jesus was rich and had access to all of God’s glory He chose to give it all up to make us rich.
Just some of the affirmations and reminders that came from 2 Corinthians 6-10 today were:
- God is ready to help me now.
- God’s power is working in me.
- I always have joy.
- I have spiritual riches.
- I own nothing yet have everything.
- God lives in me.
- God walks with me.
- God is my father.
- I have God’s promises.
- God encourages me.
- I have enough.
Yes, God provides all I need and in Him I have enough. I only pray that my wonderful joy and my deep poverty will overflow into rich generosity. I pray out of my richness I will give what I have. What do I have? I have God in me. That my friend is truly being rich. In His generosity we can give what we have. Do you have all you need?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for Your generosity. In my poverty You have made me rich. I am rich in the fact that You are in me and You are walking with me. Give me Your generous spirit so that I will give away what I have. May others experience Your wonderful joy and Your great riches. God give me the seeds that you want me to plant. Thank You for the gift of Your Son- a gift too wonderful for words. Amen.
