“For I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited me in; I needed clothes, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you looked after me, I was in prison, and you came to visit me.” Matthew 25:35-36   Many times, we may get into a mindset of “How can I be blessed?” Or, “How will my needs get met?” However, God wants you to look around and be the hand that blesses others. He wants you to be the hand that helps the single mother, or the waitress in the restaurant, or the friend who is really struggling. God may whisper to you, “Go up to that person in the grocery store and pay for their bill,” or “Go tell that family that you’re going to buy them Christmas this year.” Desire to be the hands that help feed the hungry, clothe the poor, and reach out to the prisoners. It is more blessed to give than to receive.  In 1 Kings 17, the prophet Elijah was about to starve to death, and God said, “Go to Zarep...

  “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord…since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward.” Colossians 3:23-24   In your life, you will see provision through the hand of man and the hand of God. But another way you will experience provision is by your own hand. Joshua 5 tells us that the manna ceased when the Israelites crossed over the Jordan. The hand of God had provided food for the Israelites for 40 years, but God wanted to move them into a new season. God doesn’t want you waiting for miracles all of the time. He doesn’t want you to be constantly calling out to him with emergency needs like, “We’re going to lose the house, we’re going to lose the car.” God will give you miracles at times, but He doesn’t want you to live in that state all of your life. God has a greater plan for you than just scraping by.    In Deuteronomy 11:9-12 God said to the Israelites, “If you obey, you will enjoy a long life in...

LET'S PRAY Abba Father, you are Great and mighty. we thank you for this new day you have given us to live to tell your goodness, kindness, love and mercy. we thank you for all our needs because you are faithful to provide, in Jesus' name, Amen.

 Shalom Brethren, The Hand Of God “Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them.” Matthew 6:25-26   Another way God provides for you is by His mighty hand. Joseph took care of his family for many years, and for a long time, they had nothing to worry about. Pharaoh was their source. God used the hand of man as their provision in that season. But then the Bible says, “And there arose another Pharaoh after he died that knew not Joseph nor his God,” and everything changed. Suddenly, all the resources they had put their faith in were removed from their life.    You may be in a season where you feel like suddenly the source you had been relying on is now gone. Maybe you’ve lost your job, lost a big contract, or have become u...

  The Hand Of Man “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you…and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-25   God provides everything you need in life. One of the ways He does this is by the hand of man. In Genesis 45, Joseph, who had been sold into slavery by his brothers, finally gets the chance to confront them. Despite the misfortunes of his younger years, he has now risen into a place of power and wealth as the right-hand leader of the Pharaoh. His brothers showed up begging for food because there was a famine in the land. Joseph told them, “Don’t be angry with yourselves that you have done this to me, for God did it. He sent me here ahead of you to preserve your lives…Therefore, I, Joseph, will provide for you and your household all you have…lest you come to poverty…”   These brothers had thrown Joseph into a pit and stolen his birthright, but he responds by telling them he’s not angry or bitter. Joseph says, “But as for you, ...

 Dear Brethren, Shalom may the grace of God be with you. You Have Unlimited Access “Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.” Hebrews 10:19-22   After Jesus gave up His spirit and died, the Bible tells us, “At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.” (Matthew 27:51) The sky went black, and there was an earthquake, and the veil was torn. In the Old Testament, the veil was the curtain that separated mankind from the holy of holies. Behind that curtain was the mercy seat. Only the high priest could go behind the curtain once a year, and he would ...
