To those who greeted me yesterday (and some few days ago), thank you very much for remembering me on my birthday. God be praised for His faithfulness and sustaining grace. With a grateful heart, I say with the Psalmist, The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me through the valley of the shadow of death and out the other side. The earth is the Lords and all that is in it! (Psalm 23) ...So if God gave you life, and He did, if God redeemed you and He did, if God has a purpose for your life and He does, then He will provide what you need to survive. So be rich toward God and you will have the promise that as youre rich toward God, Hell be lavishly rich toward you. As long as He has that unfolding plan in your life, He will sustain it. We have a life, we have a body for the purposes of God to live to His glory, to fulfill His will, to fulfill His plan and as long as that plan is operating, He will sustain us. The priority is spiritual purpose. If you understand that, if you understand Gods gifted you, Hes called you, Hes regenerated you, Hes put you into His family, Hes put you into a place of witness and ministry and service, and all He wants you to do is live to His glory...and He will take care of your life. Your life is not about food. Your life is not about clothing. Its not about making sure you can survive. Thats Gods commitment, thats the priority. And if you understand the divine priority, that is that you live and exist for the purpose of God, and God will sustain your life until that purpose is fulfilled, then you dont have to worry about it. -John MacArthur
