Meet
Jesus: Daily Provider
Matthew
6:11: Give us this day our daily bread.
Jehovah Jireh
in the Old Testament was a name for God that foreshadowed this text
of prayer. In Jesus, we meet The LORD, Our Provider. Provider is
a compound Latin word just as ji-reh is a compound Hebrew word.
Each means "to see beforehand". Each means that the "pro-vision"
for the journey is in the path waiting for us each day. Each means
the manna for the day is enough. Don't worry about tomorrow's manna.
ACT!
Take one worry about what you will need for today and throw it away.
That's right, throw it away. Place it on the altar of prayer and
don't look back all day.
PRAY!
Jehovah Jireh, You are my vision before I get there. You have put
in my path all that is necessary for life and Godliness. You have
made me a partaker of Your divine nature. You have ordered my steps.
You have made my lines to fall in pleasant places. Thank You, Father,
for giving me my daily bread. Thank You that in Jesus I have all
I need every day according to Your riches in glory in Him.
