Daily meal

 “Give us this day our daily bread.” Matthew 6:11 KJV.

The Lord's Prayer, "Give us this day our daily bread," reminds us of our reliance on God for both our physical and spiritual sustenance. This petition highlights the importance of seeking God's provision each day, acknowledging that every beneficial thing comes from Him. We, as believers, must nourish ourselves with the Word of God to acquire the wisdom and strength necessary to fulfill our physical needs and assist others. In Matthew 4:4, Jesus emphasizes the necessity of spiritual nourishment, stating, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." This verse underscores that our ultimate sustenance comes from God's Word, which provides the guidance and power to face life's challenges.

In the story of Mary and Martha, Jesus points out the importance of prioritizing spiritual nourishment over worldly concerns. When Martha was worried and upset about many things, Jesus gently corrected her by saying, "Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her" (Luke 10:41–42 KJV). Mary chose to sit at Jesus' feet and listen to His teachings, recognizing the eternal value of spiritual food. Similarly, when we "eat" spiritually by immersing ourselves in God's Word and seeking His wisdom, we find solutions to our problems and gain the strength to meet our daily needs. Therefore, it is essential to daily seek God's guidance and provision, knowing that He will equip us to meet our needs and those of others.

Prophetic Word: The Lord is saying to you today, "My child, I see your needs and hear your cries for provision. As you seek Me daily, I will not only meet your physical needs but also pour out spiritual abundance upon you. Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for I am your Provider. Just as I fed the Israelites manna in the wilderness, I will sustain you with My Word and My wisdom. Trust in Me, and you will see My hand move mightily in your life. I am your Shepherd, and you shall not want. Sit at My feet like Mary, choose the good part, and it will not be taken from you. As you draw near to Me, I will draw near to you and show you the path to walk. Be diligent and patient, for My timing is perfect, and My provision is always on time."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and faith, acknowledging You as our Provider and Sustainer. We thank You for the daily bread that You give us, both physically and spiritually. Lord, we ask for Your wisdom and guidance as we navigate through our daily lives. Help us to trust in Your provision and to seek You first in all things. Father, we lift up our needs and the needs of those around us, knowing that You are more than able to meet them. We ask for Your favor and blessings to be upon us, opening doors of opportunity and providing solutions to every problem we face. Instead of letting worries and troubles consume us, give us the grace to sit at Your feet and receive from You. We pray for a deeper revelation of Your love and provision, and we thank You in advance for all that You will do. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
