God Wants to Supply Man's Needs

Text -

Philippians 4:19 NASB95

And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Needs, Not wants

Pardon - Kapatawaran

Why?

We are sinners

Unless we are pardoned we are destined for destruction

How?

God sent His Son

Romans 5:8–10 NASB95

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

Romans 5.

John 3:36 NASB95

“He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

Peace - Kapayapaan

Christ gives us Peace

John 14:27 NASB95

“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.

Peace with God

Peace with God

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Peace with God is reconciliation with God, because we have been pardoned!

Peace of God

Philippians 4:6–7 NASB95

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Power - Kapangyarihan

Why?

Weakness makes us vulnerable to sin, to despair, to demonic influence.

Christ gives us Power

John 1:12 NASB95

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,

Acts 1:8 NASB95

but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.”

We need power over our enemies

Luke 10:19 NASB95

“Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.

Luke 10.19

Mark 16:16–18 NASB95

“He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. “These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

Mark 16.1

Power comes by the Holy Spirit

2 Timothy 1:7 NASB95

For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.

1 Corinthians 4:20 NASB95

For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power.

Provision - Kakilanganin

Why?

God knows our needs

Matthew 6:31–33 NASB95

“Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ “For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

God can supply your needs

2 Corinthians 9:8 NASB95

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed;

Needs follow Spiritual priorities

3 John 2 NASB95

Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.

Conclusion - God is all we need!

and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority;
