All Provided!

Devotions:

        “seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust.”

‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭1:3

          God, in His love has made abundant provision for every area of our lives.  These provisions do not just come upon us, we must receive them by faith.  Our enemy tries to keep us from receiving these blessings by injecting doubt into our minds and convincing us that those are our thoughts, they must be, after all they are in our head.  But not every that comes into our head is ours.  We must learn to judge the thoughts and accept or reject them. Too often the filter that we use is our sense of unworthyness so we feel we are deserving God's wrath. So we accept anything negative as coming from God. But Jesus bore ALL our sins and the resulting wrath.  We have been redeemed so all the blessings of God are ours as His beloved children, not the curse as miserable failures and sinners. God's salvation takes us out of the negative and puts us into the positive.  The enemy tries to convince us otherwise but do not believe him. Choose to believe God's unfavorable love for us.
