Day 9- A Child of The King But Acting Like Beggars
SCRIPTURE:
My God shall supply all your need, according to His Riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
DEVOTION:
Do we believe God can meet the needs of our finances? Our Health? Our Job? Our children? Our parents? Our Husband? Our wife? Our Church? Scripture promises that we will never face a need for which God’s provision is not sure. God’s promises in Him are Yes and Amen (1Cor 1:20). God does not give us what we WANT but He certainly gives us what we NEED. He knows what we have need of, before we even know it (Matt 6:8). If we are not experiencing God’s Bountiful provision, we have to ask ourselves, what is the problem? Is the difficulty with God? Or could it be that we do not believe that God and His Heavenly angels are ready and waiting to complete His will for us? Do we not have faith in God’s provision and are we only dependent on Man’s provision?
Every resource of God is available to any of His children. We just have to be obedient and trust in our Heavenly Father to provide it.
REFLECTION & SHARING:
Would those close to us affirm and resound that our life demonstrates an unwavering belief that we serve The True and Living God and that He does what He says He will do?

I have learned in the last few years to trust in God more when it comes to my finances, I am not 100% because old habits can take longer to breath. I am asking The Most High to grant me grace when I forget He is my ultimate provider.
Good morning when I think about today devotion I have to self reflect on how I have gone through life doing exactly what it says acting like the beggar that I am not Dear God please help me to be encouraged in my thoughts to know that all things are possible with you renew my thoughts and prayers for the better ongoing from now and forever renew a right spirit within me Amen
I’ve been in situations where things worked out in ways that could only be by the grace and mercy of God. People often assume things come easily to me, but in reality, it’s a constant battle, especially because I struggle with the need to always be in control. I’m learning that when I fully trust God, surrender everything to Him, and walk in obedience, things do become easier. But oh, how often I choose the hard path!
Yet, through it all, He remains my Provider, my Husband, and my Friend. This month, as I received clear instructions concerning my spiritual walk, the attacks came just as swiftly. But I know how to cry out to God: ‘Ah, fix it, Lord!’and He does. No matter what, I turn to Him, and He always provides the love and comfort I need. If you turn to Him in every area of your life, He will do the same for you.
Merciful Father.... Forgive me for not trusting that with you all things are possible. Forgive me Lord when I do not believe that you want the best for me. Forgive me Lord when I look at my infirmities or the infirmities of my loved ones and trust what the doctors say instead of believing what you promised me. Forgive me Father when I look at the balance in my bank book and forget that you are my Jehovah Jireh, my God who sees and supplies all my needs. Father forgive me when I look at others and they appear to have everything I think I should have and not remember that you promised that you will NEVER let me go hungry or my seed begging for bread..... Ohhh mercy Father, you have cautioned in your word...do not envy a man with many meats on his table for we know not what he did to get it (Provide 23), Lord let me remember daily to depend only on you. Lord remind me daily that you are my Jehovah Shaddai...my sufficient one. Forgive me Lord for acting like a beggar when I am a daughter of The True and Living King!! Amen
