UNLIMITED SUPPLY
There are times in the lives of all of us when we have more bills than the finances to meet those bills. Or, your budget is all figured out and along comes an emergency that you didn't count on which throws your budget out the window. An unexpected flat tyre, a filling that falls out of your tooth, an appliance breaks down, or it may even be that you lose your job. Whatever it is, just when you think you're going to get ahead, along comes the enemy with a plan to discourage and defeat you in the financial realm.
Paul was confident in his ability to live with financial lack as well as prosperity, and advised us to do the same. In the fourth chapter of Philippians, Paul says he can survive in all circumstances through Christ Who strengthens him and makes him tough enough to bear anything.
Remember, we are individually special to God. He made us just as we are. Everything we are comes from Him and He is the giver of all good things. He has given each of us special gifts or talents meant to be used for His glory.
As God strengthened Paul, He can strengthen you through the rough times. "And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19 AMP).
How great a promise to abandon yourself upon when financial problems overcome you! Hold up your need to God, "God, this is the bill I cannot pay. Your Word says that You will supply my every need. Show me how this need will be met." Now, watch as God moves in your behalf.
Maybe some extra work will come your way. Or, possibly someone will give you money you didn't expect. God's ways are endless, and His Word is true. His desire is to meet your need and be glorified in it. So ask and expect; cast your cares on Him and delight in His strength and His supply.
