My God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:19. We quote this wonderful verse many times while speaking of finances. And yes it is great to use in that term, for Paul was writing this concerning the giving of the church and speaking of money. But I have always felt this goes much further than just carnal needs. I cant help but notice that the writer doesn’t say needs, but sees it accurate to just say “need.” I had heard this verse many times before I looked at it in this way. But when I did my prayer changed. I feel that Paul was stating that if we are faithful to our Heavenly Father… He will be more than enough for us. For He already gave us the ultimate sacrifice for our small gifts… Jesus Christ. Jesus is the total supply. I started praying “Jesus… I need you.“ instead of Lord please supply me. See He has already supplied!!!! Through His Son, Jesus Christ, and He is our only real need.
