WHY WORRY? GOD SUPPLIES!!!

Hebrews 13:5 - "Be content with such things as ye have; for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."

It is a plus to be "content with such things as ye have" because  the divine promises attached to this are unbelievable true and unchangeable. "Such Things as ye have" is guaranteed by Jesus' affirmation of being with us all the way and He will be by our side all the time. The Greek literally means to "Such Things as ye have" as within us an undeveloped power and only awaiting the call. Sometimes we may think and wish that we have more money, or more brains, fame and influences. We may dream of the lives we might have if we have all the money in the world, and the deeds we could do, if only there are better circumstanced. But the author of Hebrew said that God says NO!!! If we think like that, then we have present ourselves within the narrow confinement of our own reach  and the  limitations  that the world is proposing. If we are content with what the world has to offer, then we have limited and never explored the resources and abundances of our own soul in the God of this universe.

"Such things as ye have"--Remember that Moses had only a rod, but with God's Divine Power the Red Sea was opened in two. David had only five pebbles, but these with God brought down the giant, Goliath. The woman had only a little pot of oil, but that pot of oil with God paid all her debts. The poor widow was scraping the bottom of the barrel, but with God the handful of meal kept her child, herself, and the prophet until the rain came. The boy had only five tiny loaves and two small fish, but with Jesus they were enough for five thousand mouths. The good thing is that God allows us to estimate what we have got, and then count God into the equation, and He will never let go of our hands or let us go empty handed. He said "I will never leave nor forsake those that trust in Me."

Be Content then:  The Bible and  History has proved that the most glorious deeds that have blessed and enriched the world have not been done by wealthy men. Our Lord Jesus  had none of this world's goods; the apostles had neither silver nor gold, but in the Name of Jesus "Everything" comes into existence. It is not money, but human love and God that is needed. Therefore do not be covetous, do not hoard, but Be strong and content. With good courage say: "The Lord is my Helper; I will not fear" for life or death, for sorrow or joy!

AMEN.
