When The Lord Supply 1

Be Inspired End Of The Month Fasting & Prayer April 2017
Theme:When The Lord Supply
Text: Philippians 4:19 "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus."
Glory be to God Almighty for this month that is coming to an end, it is by His grace that we are not consumed. All glory be to Him alone the one who keeps us and never gets tired of us. Hallelujah.
The theme says " When The Lord Supply", it is amazing to see God from one of the points where He remains an expert. The Bible says The earth is the lord's and everything there of in Psalms 24:1. Looking at it from that perspective, it is easy to understand that God is never in want or lack of anything. Therefore if we say when The Lord supply its a deep message that needs reading between the lines.


To supply means to give, to endow, to bless, to grant, to donate, to afford, to come up with, to furnish, to impart, to contribute, to provide, to take over and so on. In Genesis 22;14 the name of God was revealed as Jehovah Jireh which means the Lord will provide, often times people use it as a way to remind themselves that God alone is their provider. To think about a supply, there must be a need and expectation, you cannot have in surplus, comfortable and still be expectant of what you already have in abundance, instead you will be in expectant of those things you need not that which is overflowing. Having said that there is no one in life that has everything and never need anything. 

Taking a retailer for example,  when they run out or low of stock they make their way to the wholesalers, if at all they go to a fellow retailer they won't be doing as much purchase as they would do if they were to go to the wholesaler. For reasons of profit and divers business ethics, no body will see a water fountain and start going about looking to dig a well in order to quench their thirst. When we hear When the Lord supply, it open our insight on how we see God. There is nothing too much for God to give to His own children. 

He is the master of all suppliers and he never and will never run out of stock in anyway. so when the Lord supplies the channel of the supply never get blocked. Things that we need to acknowledge are;

Why would Lord supply? Psalms 20 is a typical example of why God will supply. He supply those who call upon Him. So in order to partake of the supply from the Lord you need to call on Him. It is useless calling on man for what only God can do, in the same verse it let us know that God will send help from sanctuary, he will hear our cry and give us victory (Psalms 20:2-6). The Lord will supply whatever you ask or desire if you call on Him but you must acknowledge the fact that it is Him you need to call on in order to bring to live this part of the Scripture.

What happens when the Lord supply? Proverbs 10:22 let us know that He blesses without adding sorrow. His blessing does not just come it brings out more than what was seen before. Just like in the life of Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4:9-10, when he called on God his situation changed the one who was named in remembrance of sorrow had sorrow wiped out totally in his life. The blessing of God upon his life caused a divine chapter to be opened in his life and often times his little prayer is used by generations who seek such intervention in their life.

Who is affected when the Lord supply? In 2 Samuel 6: 11, the Ark of Covenant that Uzzah touched that killed him was dumped in the house of Obed-edom Gittite. The same ark that led to somebody's death became a channel of blessing for Obed-edom and his household. So when God supply, all the people around you will partake in the blessings. I can only compare Obed-edom to a father who didn't know how he would feed his family then all of a sudden the ark that someone touched was transported to his house. He must have thought well, if we die we die but Alas! God had another plan. The one who should have died was visited by the king of kings and that led to David visiting him rejoicingly to take the Ark back to the city of David. So aside his household being blessed, his status changed from just a commoner to someone who deserved the visit of the royal

Let Us Pray
Father I thank you for another privilege to witness this month and it's end in Jesus name

Lord I thank you for being my eternal custodian in Jesus name

Father have mercy on me and forgive all my short comings in Jesus name

Mighty God I thank you for your everlasting love in Jesus name

Father count me worthy among those  who will partake of your divine supply in Jesus name

Father let the cry for my needs physically and spiritually come to you this day in Jesus name

Lord the type of supply that will change the name tag of sorrow like you did in the life of Jabez do it for me and my household in Jesus name

Father even as this month is coming to an end as you visited Obed-edom visit me let that which men had thought will kill me bring joy, abundance and surplus into my life in Jesus name

Lord forgive me in anyway I have run against your will that will hinder your supply for my life in Jesus name

Thank you Jesus for answered prayers in Jesus name
