HE PROVIDES AS WE NEED IT 6/12/05

PARABLE: I took a month off writing so that I would not be so far ahead in sharing my things on PonderWords, Ears2Hear and Poetry2Ponder. I wanted to be about 3 months ahead instead of 6 months. Now that the time slot has closed, and it is time to play catch up, I have been fussing that I need my storehouse filled again. I have been praying about it for a week, and fussing.

REVELATION: Yesterday I drove to graduation and I fussed whether I had enough gas. We made it fine. Now I am on my way out to church and don't have time to get gas. I prayed that the Lord would remind me to get it on the way home, and it suddenly hit me that I was fussing over the same idea with my rhema. My fuel tank was low and I needed re-fueling.

WORD TO PONDER: PROVISION WHEN YOU NEED IT 6/12/05

I AM more than aware of the timing of your needs, precious one. I see you spend out of your resources; spiritually, physically, financially, emotionally and all ways. I hear your cries that your well is getting low. I hear you, your heart and your needs. I AM dispatching what you need and you shall have what you need, when you need it.

Sometimes you need to prepare and do your part. And sometimes you need to be in the right place at the right time in order to receive. In those times, ask Me for help to prepare and move. There is nothing in this life I intend for you to do on your own, but instead go forth as My beloved partner and wife in our kingdom business. I rejoice over you, My love! I love to put My arm around your learning heart and draw you in to snuggle close to My side.

2 Chron 26:5 NKJV

He sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper.

1 Kings 17:8-14 NLT

Then the LORD said to Elijah, "Go and live in the village of Zarephath, near the city of Sidon. There is a widow there who will feed you. I have given her my instructions." So he went to Zarephath. As he arrived at the gates of the village, he saw a widow gathering sticks, and he asked her, "Would you please bring me a cup of water?" As she was going to get it, he called to her, "Bring me a bite of bread, too." But she said, "I swear by the LORD your God that I don't have a single piece of bread in the house. And I have only a handful of flour left in the jar and a little cooking oil in the bottom of the jug. I was just gathering a few sticks to cook this last meal, and then my son and I will die." But Elijah said to her, "Don't be afraid! Go ahead and cook that 'last meal,' but bake me a little loaf of bread first. Afterward there will still be enough food for you and your son. For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: There will always be plenty of flour and oil left in your containers until the time when the LORD sends rain and the crops grow again!"
