Perfectly Provisioned

Hi Peeps

Today’s Quote

“God is faithful in that He always provides what you need.”

TB

Short Sight

As humans we make decisions based on the interpretation of information in front of us. If you are lead by anything but God, it certainly will show when determining your needs and desires.

Advisor

Because we cannot see all that God can, we are not capable of understanding what we truly need. As such, God makes the perfect advisor, lovingly steering us clear of the collisions ahead to safety.

Always On Time

When you lean on God’s understanding and provision, in time, you begin to trust that the missed promotion or change in relationships are actually Him sparing you. Trust that He knows and provides exactly what you need, when you need it.

Today’s Question

Are you waiting patiently or causing chaos out of fear?

Enjoy the Reading

Amos 4

1 Listen to me, you fat cows living in Samaria, you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy, and who are always calling to your husbands, “Bring us another drink!” 2 The Sovereign LORD has sworn this by his holiness: “The time will come when you will be led away with hooks in your noses. Every last one of you will be dragged away like a fish on a hook! 3 You will be led out through the ruins of the wall; you will be thrown from your fortresses, ” says the LORD . 4 “Go ahead and offer sacrifices to the idols at Bethel. Keep on disobeying at Gilgal. Offer sacrifices each morning, and bring your tithes every three days. 5 Present your bread made with yeast as an offering of thanksgiving. Then give your extra voluntary offerings so you can brag about it everywhere! This is the kind of thing you Israelites love to do,” says the Sovereign LORD . 6 “I brought hunger to every city and famine to every town. But still you would not return to me,” says the LORD . 7 “I kept the rain from falling when your crops needed it the most. I sent rain on one town but withheld it from another. Rain fell on one field, while another field withered away. 8 People staggered from town to town looking for water, but there was never enough. But still you would not return to me,” says the LORD . 9 “I struck your farms and vineyards with blight and mildew. Locusts devoured all your fig and olive trees. But still you would not return to me,” says the LORD . 10 “I sent plagues on you like the plagues I sent on Egypt long ago. I killed your young men in war and led all your horses away. The stench of death filled the air! But still you would not return to me,” says the LORD . 11 “I destroyed some of your cities, as I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Those of you who survived were like charred sticks pulled from a fire. But still you would not return to me,” says the LORD . 12 “Therefore, I will bring upon you all the disasters I have announced. Prepare to meet your God in judgment, you people of Israel!” 13 For the LORD is the one who shaped the mountains, stirs up the winds, and reveals his thoughts to mankind. He turns the light of dawn into darkness and treads on the heights of the earth. The LORD God of Heaven’s Armies is his name!
