Divine Provision
"Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?"
~ Matthew 6:30
"Clothes are expensive, and poor believers may be led into anxiety as to where their next suit will come from. Our heavenly Father clothes the grass of the field with splendor:will He not clothe His own children? We are sure He will. There may be many a patch and a darn, but clothing we shall have.
A poor minister found his clothes nearly threadbare and so far gone that they would hardly hold together; but as a servant of the Lord, he expected his Master to find him his livery. It so happened that on a visit to a friend, I had the loan of the good man's pulpit, and it came into my mind to make a collection for him, and there was his suit.
The Lord, who made man so that when he had sinned he needed garments, also in mercy supplied him with them." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

Just as God clothed Adam and Eve to hide their bodies because they were ashamed to be even looked at, because of their sin, God will do the same to us. |

PLEASE PRAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME THIS MORNING. OUR FATHER WHO ART HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN; AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US. AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM ALL EVIL:FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE HONOR, AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. IT IS IN CHRIST JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN!
