… Does God promise to provide for our financial needs? Well, I think about Philippians 4, verse 19, Paul said, For my God shall supply all your needs according to the riches of Christ Jesus. And so that seems like a pretty clear promise. He didn't say, My God shall supply all your greeds, but your needs. And that seems to be the general pattern that God promises to take care of our basic provisions. Now, sometimes that doesn't happen. And it may be God's will for you to go through a time of spiritual poverty or financial poverty. But for most of us, God will promise to meet our needs. Now, not all the time, but some of the time, people's lack of finances is because they're violating the biblical principles of money. They go into debt, or they spend more than they make, or they don't save for the future. God commands us to do all of those things to meet the needs that we have. I think about the story of Joseph. …
I know God comes through with child support payments. My God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory. He comes through with child support payments. The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. Makes me lie down in green pastures. Leaves me beside still waters. Restores my soul. Leaves me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. And I'll dwell in the house of the Lord forever. He ain't delinquent with child support. Anybody ever had a child support payment? Child support payment. No weapon formed against you can prosper. Child support payment. What they meant for evil, God turns for good. Child support payments. Oh my God. And so Jesus says, when you know God, is going to be on time with child support payments. You better live every day in your bag. In your bag. I'm in my bag, y'all. I'm in my bag. That's the culture. Y'all know that when you're in your bag, it means you're in a zone. …
Which is a very important verse. My God shall supply all of your need according to His riches in glory by Christ. Now understand this verse does not float out in space all by itself. For every promise of God there is a premise. Let me say that again. For every promise of God there is a premise. This promise is embedded in the context of chapter four. What is the context? The context is be content with what you have. Be generous. Give to the work of the Lord. And my God shall supply all of your needs according to His riches and glory in Christ. Now we generally apply this verse to financial challenges. You know, maybe when an unexpected bill comes due, or there's some financial crisis, we'll say, well, the Lord will provide because He promises, my God will supply all of my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ. And that's true. But it's not limited to finances. You could apply it in other areas as well. For instance, if your marriage is in trouble, you could also say, my God will supply all of my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ. Hey, if you're a single person looking for the right person, you could apply this verse. My God will supply all of my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus. If there's a need for maybe a physical healing, you could apply it there as well. My God shall supply all of my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus. …
419, let's put that up. It says, and my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. He can make a way. He can open the door. He can make provisions for you. I'm trying to tell you to live a life of faith. Believe that God can do it for you. before you go out and charge it and get in debt and get yourself in trouble financially and have more debt than you have money to pay back. I'm just simply trying to tell you, give God an opportunity to prove himself strong to you. Now I got eight minutes. I'm going to take some questions. If somebody got some, just stand up where you are, where you is. They got the microphone. They're going to come to you if y'all have some questions. There's somebody with courage right there standing there. Good morning. Does the commandment to not borrow apply to opening a business? I think it applies to everything. …
… fact, I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. He then wraps that thing up by saying, but my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory. And he writes all of this in jail. He's in prison and writes this but here's the shout he says I'm in prison it's Good Friday but I have an Easter faith I have a resurrection faith that I may know him and the power of his resurrection I want to participate with him in his suffering I want to be made conformable to him so I can become like him in attaining death, but also resurrection. I'm going to unpack that and then y'all can go experience brunch.

… I'm going to lose it. So I was reading the other day, and I never noticed before that in Philippians 4.19, of course it says, my God will supply all your needs according to the Christ's glory. And over in the first part of the chapter, it says, I have learned how to have needs. I've never connected those in my life. I know how to be abased. I know how to abound in every and all circumstances. I know how to have needs. And over here, every need is met. Wait a minute. Question. Problem. I would have lost that. Now I've got to work with that. That's going to be a devotion in a class someday. The reason for this is that you're not Einstein and you're not God because ideas tumble to your mind once you start doodling. This page, I brought them along. So here they are. These are my four preparation pages for this message. They're just scribbles. They're just scribbles. Page one's where I began. …
… but with his own riches. Paul writes in Philippians chapter four, verses 19 and 20, and my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches and glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and father be glory forever and ever. Amen. God supplies our needs by the abundance of his grace. We don't supply what's lacking within ourselves. We're the debtors. How could we possibly imagine that there's something missing in God's work? Therefore, give thanks for the payment that's made. Never imagine that our lives are a day-to-day refunding of what God has really done for us. Walk out of the debtor's prison of our past and give thanks. It is as Paul wrote in Galatians 5, verse 1. For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. We're free by the payment of the Son, complete and whole, received by the gift of faith. Therefore, we're free by faith to recognize that we've been purchased. …
… And Jesus says in a very calm but commanding voice, no, no, no, my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in Christ Jesus. Not a hair falls from your head without your father's knowledge. So you can be anxious for nothing, but in everything with prayer and thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God and the peace that passes all understanding will guard my heart and your heart in Christ Jesus. I'm telling you, believe this and you'll feel that stronghold crumble. Despair says to you, this is the end. There's no way out of this one. Life is over. And Jesus says, yeah, but nothing can ever separate you from my love and I'm a God who got out of the grave. I can pull you out of it too. Neither height nor depth nor principality or power or anything in all creation can separate you from my love and I know the plans I still have for you. plans to give you a future and a hope. …
… He came through. My God will supply all your needs according to his riches and glory in Christ Jesus. If you don't get it, you don't need it. That's why I told the elders, if we don't get it, we don't need it. That's what it says in the Bible. he will supply every need and our timing is seldom his. He knows the time for joy and truly will send it when he sees it meet. When he has tried and purged thee duly and finds thee free from all deceit, he comes to thee all unaware and makes thee own his loving care. I love that song. It's called, If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee. I learned it in Germany, in German. And now it's got seven verses and that one right there. The timing of God is simply sovereignly wise and seldom your timing. God knows what he's doing. We wait. Waiting is a huge part of the Christian life. Evildoers will be cut off. …
… but God says he will richly provide for all of your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Believe what he says. You say, I feel horrible about my past mistakes. I feel guilt and I feel shame. And God says, now therefore there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. If you are in Christ, you're a new creation. The old is gone, the new has come. Your sins have been separated from you as far as the east is to the west. If you find yourself angry, hurting, afraid, God says, I have not given you a spirit of fear. but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Don't look at what you see, believe and live in what he says. Now, I wanna slow down and I'll show you something in his word that might be a little bit different from what you may typically think. Watch what happens. God says, I'm gonna send the water. But before I send the water, I want you to dig a ditch. …
… His word and my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus. Peace poor is worse than prosperity poor. If you're tired of living on the run, if you're tired of anxiety, see him at the end of his life. Bodyguards cut off from everybody. Can't go, can't have normal relationships. He's like, for those of you of my generation, Howard Hughes. It's what the enemy does. He just seals us off because we're trying to get security from other things than Jesus. And you can't find peace and you can't find rest. and I'm telling you the Lord told me to proclaim this over the people that would hear me today you may be watching me in a mansion somewhere and you're peace poor. You got everything that life is supposed to make you really, really a big deal. But inside, you're peace poor because you don't have Jesus. He is the greatest treasure. and what you're looking for can only be found in Him. …

… Philippians 4 verse 9, My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Not all you grieve, but all you need. If you would be content, learn to enjoy the simple things of life which are the best things. We try to read when our grandchildren are present a proverb in the morning. That's one of the best family worships I know. And Proverbs chapter 15 verses 16 and 17 says this, Better is little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure with trouble therewith. Better is a dinner of herbs where love is just plain vegetables than a stalled ox, filet mignon, and hatred therewith. Learn, folks, to let your home ring with love and laughter, conversation and fun, and be content with the simpler things of life. I'm telling you these gadgets will not make you happy. You take these kids, their closet is crammed full of the latest styles. They've got a computer. They've got every electronic gadgetry. And why do they say, I haven't got anything to wear. …

You just moved through the most difficult things of our life, loving us, enabling us, securing us, strengthening us. Deliver us, Father, from being double-minded, looking in two directions for the same thing. …
