Hebrews 13: 8 says, �Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.� One day Jesus supernaturally fed five thousand people from a young boy�s packed lunch of five loaves and two fish. You can read about it in John chapter 6. These five thousand people that day had an encounter with Jesus the Provider and Supplier of our every need. Some people don�t think God is interested in our physical needs, but when Jesus was teaching His disciples how to pray, one of the things He said they should pray was, �Give us this day our daily bread�. When Jesus met those who were reduced to begging because of some physical infirmity, he didn�t just throw a few pennies in their pot and pass on by. He healed them of their physical condition, and in so doing He also healed them economically. They would no longer have to beg but would be able to live a normal life. One day, the apostles Peter and John were going into the Temple to pray when a crippled man who was begging at the gate asked them for some money. Peter said to him, �Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.� The man got up and went into the temple - walking, and leaping, and praising God! Not just healed spiritually and physically, but also healed emotionally and economically! His begging days were over! He had just had an encounter with Jesus Christ the Provider and Supplier of every need. THAT WAS YESTERDAY - WHAT ABOUT TODAY? Today, the same Jesus is not only interested in our spiritual condition. He ministers life to the whole man - spiritually, physically, emotionally, and economically. One of the Hebrew names for God is �Jehovah-Jireh� which means �The LORD will provide�. God is able to provide for us supernaturally even when the natural circumstances are against us. He is able to provide food for those who trust Him even in the midst of a famine; He is able to provide work for those who believe even when unemployment is running high; He is able to supply every need regardless of the natural limitations. Today, believe and receive - don�t doubt and do without! Have an encounter with Jesus Christ the Provider and Supplier of every need. Be Blessed! (Donnie Stewart)
