God the provision is the only source of our entire being. Without Him, we would be in lack in every area of our lives. God's provision made all things available unto us before the foundation of the world. His provision had given us all blessings through Christ Jesus. "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). There is nothing that we need that God had not taken care of. "According as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue:" (2 Peter 1:3).

We can’t take no credit for God’s work; it is his grace that made us who we are. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9). In all that we do, we must remember that God loved us before we were saints. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Roma...
