GOD WILL PROVIDE











GOD WILL PROVIDE




You have needs
I have needs
The question becomes
How are we going to provide for them


Don’t worry
God will provide for them


It may not be
What you want
But it will be
What you need


How do we know
We know-because the Bible tells us so


God will provide


In Genesis 22
God tells Abraham
To sacrifice his son Isaac


Isaac-the boy-says to his father
“Father?”
“Yes my son,” says Abraham


“The fire and wood are here
But where is the lamb
For the burnt offering”


Oh-how Abraham’s heart
Must have been breaking


Yet-with FAITH-he says
“God himself
Will provide the lamb for the burnt offering
My son”


Abraham and Isaac
Went out together


Abraham laid his son Isaac
On the altar
But the angel called out-
“Abraham-Abraham”


“Here I am,” Abraham replied


“Do not lay a hand
On the boy,” the angel said
“Do no do anything to him
Now I know
You fear God
Because you have not
Withheld from me your son
Your only son”


Abraham looked up
And saw a ram
Caught by its horns


GOD WILL PROVIDE


And when
It was time
To pay for the sins of the world
God PROVIDED the sacrifice again


HIS ONE AND ONLY SON


“For God so loved the world
That he gave his one and only son
That whoever believes in him
Shall not perish
But have ETERNAL LIFE” John 3:16


God’s LOVE is contagious
God’s KINDNESS is overwhelming
God’s COMPASSION for us
Is unlimited


So you have needs
I have needs
This world has so many needs


We needn’t worry
GOD WILL PROVIDE
