"PROVIDER"

S.E.E.D. For Today

Scripture: "We acknowledge You as our "Provider" of all we need each day." Matthew 6:11 (TPT Bible)

Explanation: Give us bread or life each day. Bread becomes a metaphor of our needs, physically, mentally and emotionally. In this prayer Jesus is teaching the disciples to always acknowledge God every day as Provider of everything needed for daily living. It refers to God's continual care and supplication. God extends to us what we need and desire, He relinquishes to us the necessities for life.

Exercise: When you pray, ask God for the support to serve others. We don't seek God to provide just for us, but we seek in our request enough bread that we can give to our neighbor as well. God's word reveals to us that God has made adequate preparations and arrangements for our care. Jesus said don't worry about food and clothing, pursue the Kingdom of God and everything will be made available for you to live well. Provide originally meant to foresee or exercise foresight dealing with future. David declared that he had never seen the righteous forsaken nor the seed of the Lord begging for bread. Sometimes it is hard to perceive provision when every means for your well being is being exhausted. But trust God and His word, He will supply your needs!

Devotion: Lord we call You "Provider" our Jehovah Jireh! Deliver as you have promised our daily bread. Place what is necessary at our disposal. Furnish us with means to live and help our neighbor. Turn over everything that You have promised us. Our extremity is Your opportunity to show Yourself to us, and Lord we ask you to show up in our finances, in our food and clothing, in our businesses, in our churches, for our families. We believe that every blessing in the heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a gift of love, and we live with this confidence that if we make You the utmost delight and pleasure of our lives, that You will provide for what we desire most. In Jesus Name Amen!

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda

The State of Unity

As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit— just as you were called to one hope when you were called— one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. Ephesians 4:1-6 Last night the president gave his state of the union address. This year with a different look, not one of division but of unity. The idea is to bring the country together as one so that the unity of the state would result in a better America. Unity is a major issue, especially in Christianity. The idea for the two parties seating arrangements stem from division that became more than many Americans could stand. It is the same way for us in the church, the reasons that keep the body of Christ so divided are more than s
