As I began looking for another Stepping Stone to share with you this week. I would start one then just not be able to finish it. Then begin another and still didn’t come together the way I wanted. So, I took a few days and just did my normal devotions and prayer time and just thought some more and still nothing else seemed to guide me to a topic for this post.

I decided to share one verse that became special to me early in my Christian life.

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

Many times, throughout our Christian walk God will bring verses to light and they become a “favorite.” We often time memorize it and continue to lean on the truth found in it during difficult times. 

Having grown up in a poor family, I didn’t have all of the things my friends had. I wore second-hand clothes, never had the “brand-name” shoes, most of our dinners were fried potatoes and beans. There were times when I felt that I did not have what I wanted…but I had what I needed.

Once I was saved, God used this verse to show me three things.

First, God will provide my physical needs! My family has never gone hungry, we have always had clothes, some are even brand-name and new, and we have been blessed with a home that we use for church functions and show hospitality to the saved and unsaved people God puts in our lives. Second, the Lord also has provided for my spiritual needs. He gave me a Godly husband, daughter and son-in-law who are faithfully serving the Lord. We are blessed with a loving Church family at Northwoods Baptist Church. Third, I have the Word of God, that continues to show/teach me more about our Lord and Savior each day.

We have a wonderful God who is worthy to be praised and served! I can truly say that God has supplied all my needs both physically and spiritually.

So now, I am going to ask for your help.

Please take a moment comment and share your favorite verse and a blessing you have experienced in your walk with the Lord.
