PROMISE #294 - OCTOBER 21
Promise #294:
I will meet all your needs so you can overflow with good works.
2 Corinthians 9:8 (WEB)
And God is able to make all grace abound to you,
that you, always having all sufficiency in everything,
may abound to every good work.
It is by grace that we are saved, and it is God's gift to us so that we won't be able to boast about it (Ephesians 2:8). This same grace abounds to us and meets all of our needs so that we will overflow in every good work.
The NIV Bible says 2 Corinthians 9:8 this way... And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
This Bible verse speaks of the principle of abundance. God wants us to overflow with His grace at all times and in every situation. I believe the key to this principle of abundance is found in Matthew 10:8, where Jesus sends out His disciples to proclaim the gospel's good news. His charge is this: 'Freely you have received, freely give.'
One of the things I am learning in my walk with God is that I first need to be in a place of receiving before I can have anything to give to others. Others are touched out of the overflow of His love and grace in my life.
So, my simple encouragement today is to learn to receive all the grace that God wants to give you. As you receive the abundant, never-ending supply that flows from heaven, it will overflow in your life so you will have all you need to do every good work He has planned for you.
I will meet all your needs so you can overflow with good works.
