Before You Need

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do—Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. —Matthew 6:7-8

You serve a God who supplies your needs before you even know you have a need. He created the seed that would grow into the tree that would be crafted into the chair you are sitting on. The Almighty had you in mind long ago when that seed first fell to the ground.

If you have a need, that’s proof He has already provided everything for that need to be met. Regardless of the situation you may be in at this very moment, God has already provided. Whether your children need new shoes or you do not know how you are going to pay the rent, rest in the assurance that not only will He provide, but He will stop Satan in his tracks. God knows your need. He had a plan to take care of everything before you were even born.

Take time to set aside all of your physical and emotional needs for your greatest need—your need of Him. Hunger and thirst for God. Seek Him with your whole heart. Know that when He meets with You then every need is met.

Thank you, Lord, for knowing and meeting all my needs.
How I need You, O God. Visit me with Yourself
for in You all my needs are met. Hallelujah! Amen.
