All We Need

Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. — 1 Timothy 6:17 (NLT) Set your hope on the living God, Who gives us richly all things to enjoy. For the love of money [that is, the greedy desire for it and the willingness to gain it unethically] is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves [through and through] with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6:10 AMP) Put your confidence in our Heavenly Father. He is the source of all we need. He gives freely and liberally. He is Jehovah Jireh, the LORD, our Provider. They who seek the LORD will not lack any good thing. (See Psalms 34:10 AMP)  Don’t be obsessed with money but live content with what you have, for you always have God’s presence. For hasn’t he promised you, “I will never leave you, never! And I will not loosen my grip on yo...
