There are provision that we all need; several time we put all effort to make sure all theses things come to materialization but to avail. You may have tried several methods but same result, the good news here is that there is a God that can meet those things without limitation of any kind.
Have you ever imagined that, this whole world was created with just three words? “Let There Be”. That same God is still alive to make that same pronunciation on your life and it will never remain the same again.
Remember, God is not methodical or stereotype i.e, the way He did that James should be the same way He will do your, He is the God varieties, who does things according to the way He feels. If you must be the kind of person that will enjoy God goodness and His fullness, then you musty allow Him to do it in His own way and not your way.
There are some Biblical characters who enjoy God’s provision as they allow God work through in their lives.
Biblical Characters
The Widow Of The Late Prophet. 2Kgs 4:1-7 it reads.
1. Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.
2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.
4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.
5 So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.
6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, there is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
The Water In The Jawbone For Samson. Judges 15:15 - 19
15 And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith.
16 And Samson said, with the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men.
17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi.
18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
19 But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water there out; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day
The Raven for Elijah 1Kgs 17: 4-5
4 And it shall be that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
5 So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith that is before Jordan
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
Peter Paying Tax. Matt. 17:27
24 And when they were come to Capernaum
25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
From the biblical examples sited, can you notice that there is some one who can supply you all you needs without limitation? Beginning from the wife of the prophet whom the creditor threatened to sell her children to get his money, she went to meet the man of God who in divine inspiration told her what to do and she in simple obedient went and behold, the great reward of God’s provision.
Secondly, the man Samson after fighting the lord cause, he became thirsty and almost gave up, in that condition he cried to God and our Great God provided water from the jawbone he just thrown away. When Samson drank from this jawbone, the scripture recorded, he became enlighten. More strength to move forward.
Thirdly. Elijah after prophesying that there will be no rain for the period of three years, God told him to go and hide himself by the brook Cherith that is before Jordan
Fourthly, when Peter was asked if the master Jesus pays tax? He told them yes. But there was problem of where will they get the money to pay their taxes. Jesus who understands the provision of God told Peter the next morning to take his hook to fish and the very first fish Peter will catch; he should open the mouth and will find the money there. Peter in obedient went and came back with positive result.
