Sufficient to Meet Your Needs

July 23, 2013

I am with you, that is all you need. My power shows up best in weak people.
–2 Corinthians 12:9 (TLB)

A director of a camp whose purpose is to lead young hoodlums to Christ says, “Being a Christian is the toughest thing in the world. What’s tougher than loving your enemy?” One boy, who developed into a rugged disciple of Christ at this camp, said, “In this outfit we’re all brothers and we’re all men. It was too tough for me at first, but then I heard that through Christ everything is possible. Then the roughness went away. I say a man is not a man, not a full man, until he gets to know Jesus Christ.” Yes, the Christian life is tough and rough; but it’s challenging. It’s worth everything it costs to be a follower of Jesus Christ. You will soon find that the cross is not greater than His grace. When you pick up the cross of unpopularity, wherever you may be, you will find God’s grace is there, more than sufficient to meet your every need.

Prayer for the day

Lord Jesus, teach me the lesson that Your grace is abundantly sufficient to meet my every need.

There is no situation or sin too terrible for the Lord to forgive. His perfect Grace covers all. Just ask and see for yourself.

2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

There are people who belive that they are alone. But there are people who care for them. And even more so Jesus cares for them.

How can I play a part to help the hungry children in Orlando Florida when I am not strong enough to help myself and family? Not able to produce with this on my mind nor feel good about eating three squares a day when kids trying to go to sleep with hurting stomachs 60 miles away?

I really enjoy and love the Devotions. But I really,really, really miss the day's when there's no video. These small segments are like the icing on the cake !!! May GOD Continue to Bless Everyone at B.G.E.A. Love, Michael

Dear Reverend Graham, I have many nieces and nephews. I enjoy watching them grow; I watch them make difficult decisions In their daily lives. Through BGEA, Jesus Christ's Ministry helps them make sense out of the Confusion that is in the world. My nieces and nephews enjoy sharing God's vision with you which takes away their roughness; and they discover they are quicker to respond with love to God and neighbor in their daily life.
