“Your Father Knows What
You Need Even Before You Ask Him”
"When you pray, do not be like those who only
pretend to be holy. They love to
stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners. They want to be
seen by others. What I'm about to tell you is true. They have received their
complete reward.”
"When you pray,
go into your room. Close the door and pray to your Father, who can't be seen.
He will reward you. Your Father sees what is done secretly.”
"When you pray,
do not keep talking on and on the way ungodly people do. They think they will
be heard because they talk a lot. Do not be like them. Your Father knows what you need even before you ask him.”
"This is how you
should pray." 'Our Father in heaven, may your name be honored. May your kingdom come. May what you want to happen be done
on earth as it is done in heaven. Give us today our
daily bread. Forgive us our sins, just as we also have forgiven those who sin
against us. Keep us from falling into sin when we are tempted. Save us from the evil one.'”
"Forgive people
when they sin against you. If you do, your Father who is in heaven will also
forgive you. But if you do not forgive people their sins, your Father will not
forgive your sins.”
Matthew
6:5-15
God will provide. He
always has in our time of need, and always in His time. He knows what we need
before we do, and He provides for that need. As we get into the Christmas
spirit, remember that.
Our God is constantly
providing for us. He seeks the best for us. In times of hardship, need, and fear
we have Someone who cares for us. Try to repay, and
say “Thank You Lord.”
What God
promises, God will provide.
