"Provision Ahead"

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus."  Philippians 4:19

When the Lord brought the Israelites out of Egypt, they did not leave empty handed.  They left with the spoils of Egypt.  When Jesus was born, the wise men brought gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh to Him.  Among the many things that we know about the Lord, we know that He is a God who sees ahead and makes a provision accordingly.  He is Jehovah-Jireh.  He knew ahead of time that the Israelites would need provisions to sustain them in the wilderness and help them build their lives in the land He was taking them to.  He knew that Mary and Joseph would need finances to start a new life in Egypt when they had to flee their home to protect Jesus from Herod.  

He knows what you need as well.  The Lord knows what lies ahead of you.  He knows what you need to make it.  He knows what provisions that you have to have.  He knows what you are facing and He will make a provision for it.  He will provide it ahead of time-- at the right time-- so that you will have it when you need it.

Don't worry.  Don't stress over your need.  The Lord already sees it before you get to it and already has the provision there.

Have a great day.  God sees what is ahead and will make sure you have what you need for it.
