God Provides All Our Needs

God Provides All Our Needs

"Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen."
Isaiah 32:3

In the Book of Isaiah, God is encouraging His people, to give them comfort and the promise of what their future might hold. During this time the people of Israel lived near the desert, and were constantly battling the elements, of wind, dust and the hot and cold seasons of the year. Many times they would become upset with their plight, and complain and grumble almost constantly about things that was not going right. This seems to have been the situation of the people of Israel all during their history, as even when they were being led out of Egypt, they were constantly complaining and grumbling. This can also be said about our generation today, as people are still not satisfied with their plight, and are still complaining and grumbling. There is never enough money to do the things we want to do or buy. There is never enough time to do all the things we want to do. There is always something that if we could just own this one more thing, that would make our life more pleasurable or enjoyable. God tells us throughout the Bible that He will provide all that we need, and He demonstrated this to the people of Israel many times as He provided them food and water during their times in the desert. He protected them repeatedly from their enemies. He showed them time and time again that He would take care of them. God also tells us the same thing that He will always take care of us and meet our needs, but we are not satisfied. Today, I want you to quit complaining and grumbling, and begin to thank God for all that you have, as God is providing all that you need.
