"But my
God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by
Christ
Jesus." (Philippians 4:19)
Paul the
apostle made that statement in a letter he wrote from prison to the
church of
Philippi. The Church of Jerusalem was
experiencing a famine.
The church
of Corinth and the Churches of Macedonia and others were uniting
to help the
saints at Jerusalem. The church of
Corinth had been one of the
first to
make a pledge, but they had not followed through. In a letter to
the
Corinthian Church Paul had reminded them of their commitment and then
told them
that the Church of Philippi had given sacrificially beyond their
ability to
give. The Philippian believers
themselves were going through
hard times.
Philippians
4:19 gives the assurance that no sacrificial gift given in the
name of the
Lord will go unrewarded. Are you giving
sacrificially to Christ
and His
Ministry? He will supply all your need, not necessarily your wants,
according to
His riches in glory. He has an abundance
of wealth from which to draw.
