      Day 4

      Glorious Provision

      Philippians 4:19

      “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”

      Promise: God promises to supply for my every need.

      Does God promise in this verse to supply everything I want? NO! The key to this promise is the word need. There is a great difference between what I want and what I truly need. Sometimes I think I, desperately, need something, and when I think about it more seriously, I realize that it is only what I want or desire. God has all the riches of the universe at His command, but He gives me only what I need. This brings me comfort, as often times I seem to be my own worst enemy, wanting things that will cause me harm. God knows what is best for me, and I am comforted that He will always tend to my needs.

      Lessons and Truths:

      1.God has infinite resources available to me through Christ Jesus.

      2.God is sovereign over all circumstances, places, and people.

      3.God in His omniscience knows all my needs.

      4.God can and will provide for me. He loves and cares about me, and I am important to Him.

      Prayer: Lord, create in me an attitude of gratitude for your abundant provision and care. Guide me to ask only for those things that I truly need. Give me discernment about things that are really only wants. Increase my faith so that I can live with greater trust in you and assurance of your provision. Amen.

      What is my response to God’s promise?

      Am I thanking God regularly for His provision and care for me?

      What do I need to thank Him for today?

      Do I truly trust God to provide for all my needs?

      What am I facing today where I need God’s provision?

      Promise Confirmation: Exodus 16:9-15, 35, Psalm 23:1, Psalm 34:8-10, Matthew 6:25-34

      Day 5

      The Only Way

      John 14:6

      “Jesus answered, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’”

      Promise: God promises that Jesus is the only way to find God, know the truth about God, and possess eternal life.

      Jesus himself tells us plainly that He and He alone is the way to find God. He is not a way but the way. Many people seek God through nature, other religions, and within themselves, but Jesus very explicitly said that HE is the way to God. Jesus also says HE is the truth of God and that in Him we will find life. Life in Jesus is full, rich, and eternal. Life through Jesus is an eternal adventure!

      Lessons and Truths:

      1.Jesus is the only way to come into a relationship with God.

      2.Through Jesus we have a life that is full and eternal.

      3.Jesus reveals the truth that is God and about God.

      Prayer: Lord, thank you for sending Jesus to provide a way for me to be in a right relationship with you through His sacrifice on the cross. Without His death, I would still be lost. You are merciful and provide me with the truth of your Word and promise life eternally with you. Allow me to share your truth with someone today. Amen.

      What is my response to God’s promise?

      How am I using God’s truth—His Word—in my life?

      Do I believe that Jesus is the only way to have a relationship with God?

      If in doubt, review today’s Promise Confirmation scriptures for assurance.
