And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.<\/em> Philippians 4:19<\/p>\n

As believers in Christ God will supply all of our needs.\u00a0 Needs are what are necessary for life here on earth.
\nNeeds are not wants.\u00a0 Sometimes we confuse the two and we think God isn\u2019t answering our prayers.\u00a0 Sometimes He does give us our wants as in a desire of our heart, but He will always supply our needs somehow, someway.\u00a0 \u00a0 For, as Jesus said in Matthew 6:8: \u201cyour Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/em> We might say if the Father knows the things, I need then why do I need to ask Him for them?
\nWell, I would say it is because He wants a close, personal relationship with us.\u00a0 Prayer is our way of talking with Him. He loves to hear from us, that is why Paul said in 1Thessalonians 5:17\u00a0\u201cPray\u00a0without ceasing.\u201d.\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

God knows what we need, but do we know what we need? Sometimes what we think we need, is not really a need but a want, or maybe it is not something we need at that time.\u00a0 Only God knows and that is why we pray (talk with Him) to ask Him.\u00a0 Therefore, let\u2019s do as Paul says in Philippians 4:6 \u201cDon\u2019t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Dear God, I am thankful that through prayer I can talk with You daily, asking You for what I think I need and listening and waiting for Your answer.
\nI am thankful that You always do answer God.\u00a0 Sometimes I have found that Your answer was \u201cYes\u201d, sometimes, \u201cNo\u201d, and sometimes \u201cNot Right Now\u201d, but You always answered and for that I am grateful.\u00a0 Thank You for supplying all my needs according to Your riches in glory by Christ Jesus.\u00a0 I am so thankful to be in Christ and grateful for all He did for me.\u00a0 It is because of Your Son that I can have this relationship with You God, that I can talk with You 24\/7, and that You listen and speak to me in various ways.\u00a0 Therefore, I will continue asking, seeking, and knocking daily.\u00a0 I will not worry about anything, but instead pray about everything as Your word says.\u00a0 And I will live in peace and rejoice daily that I have all that I need because of You.
\nThank You Father God.\u00a0 In Jesus name I pray.\u00a0 Amen.<\/p>\n
