1 John 4:18 New International Version (NIV)
18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
When you know how much God loves you it will be easy to believe God for anything. Do you need $1,000 to pay the bills? You know that God will get you that $1,000 because He loves you so much. He was willing to die for you. Do you need healing in your body? You won't doubt that God wants you healed because you know how much God loves you. God would never want someone He loves to be sick. It won't be a question of "if" God will heal you. It will be a question of "how" and "when" will God heal you. When you know how much God loves you, you will have an unshakable confidence that God will take care of you. Even if you don't know the "how" or the "when" that God is going to do it.
Philippians 4:19 New International Version (NIV)
19 And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
What does "all" leave out? "All" includes everything that you will ever have need of. It is "all" included. It includes that job, the bills, health, family, friends, school, and things.
2 Peter 1:3 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
3 seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
Hmm, first we had "all" and now we have "everything". But this time it goes beyond your needs. "Life" includes every single aspect of your life down to the hairs on your head. Godliness has to do with "doing" the things God has called you to do. Has God called you to preach around the world? Then God will provide the money for the travel and the television time. "Everything" includes what you need to fulfill the call of God on your life.
Speak the Word:Father, you love me and have provided me everything I need for life and godliness. I can do everything you have called me to do.
