Thankful for Sufficiency
In the Old Testament, manna rained down from heaven. It supplied the Israelites in the Wilderness as they traveled towards the Promised Land. The caveat to the manna was that it was daily bread. It has oftentimes ben called the bread of angels. It was good for one day, and then you were to get another supply as your daily bread the next day. It was sufficient to sustain them.
In the New Testament, Jesus models prayer and includes supplication in that model. He prays a prayer of supplication, imploring the Father: “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11, NKJV). That God supplies us with sufficiency through daily bread means that we should focus upon thanking God for that supply of sufficiency.
God’s Supply is Endless
Just because we receive it as a daily supply doesn’t…
