Believe that He is Taking Care of it

We want our problems to be taken care of. We want to know and believe that all our needs are taken care of.

Paul did not mince words about the one who is taking care of us:

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4: 19)

Our needs are met in Christ:

"What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

'He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8: 31-32)

Since God the Father has taken care of our sins - transgression, penalty, and record -- where then do we get the idea that He will not move in our lives when we have any other need?

Without the life that Jesus gives us, there is no point to receiving anything:

"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matthew 16: 26)

When we have prospered in our soul (3 John 2), behold we begin to prosper on the outside.

We prosper when we rest and believe that God the Father is taking care of us:

"Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?" (Matthew 6: 26)

and

"Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?" (Matthew 6: 30)

Jesus is talking about the life in which we do not stress or worry about anything. He quickens us to will and to do for His good pleasure, but He is calling not to live in strife and unbelief:

"Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

"(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. " (Matthew 6: 32-33)

He is on the job. Our job is to rest in Him and let His grace work in our lives (1 Corinthians 15: 10)
