IN THE BEGINNING…THE WORD
DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, September 4, 2011
ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY
“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
A Father can only supply his family’s needs according to the amount of wealth that he has. If a Father is broke, he lacks the ability to supply the need. In contrast, we understand according to the Scripture in Philippians 4, that our Heavenly Father has riches in glory. It is from His heavenly, overflowing storehouse of treasures that he draws to supply our needs. He tells us in Psalm 84:11, “no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.” Many of God’s children have needs, but are not able to access God’s blessedness. Why? The Scripture tells us in James 4:2 “…ye have not, because ye ask not.”
Today, let us go to God with a humble heart asking for our needs to be met, and see if God won’t open up the windows of heaven.
