Recently, at our church, the pastor has been giving us scripture verses for the congregation to memorize. A couple of weeks ago he gave us the verse from Romans 11:36:
36 For from him and through him and to him are all things.
To him be glory for eternity! Amen.
I was considering how the I AM is completely sovereign over provision for our need(s) in time of crisis and need... and then it occurred to me, He is also sovereign over our time and level of need. For FROM Him and TO Him and THROUGH Him are all things!
So not only is He completely sovereign over all the supply of our need, according to His rickes in Yeshua haMashiach (Phil 4:19), but He is also completely sovereign over when and how much IS our need!
Therefore, after his marvelous conclusion in chapter 11, Rabbi Paul goes on to tell us what our response should be in light of such great truths!:
Therefore I exhort you, brothers, through the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, so that you may approve whatis the good and well-pleasing and perfect will of God.
O saints, put your trust in Him! Amen.
