INFINITE SUPPLY

INFINITE SUPPLY
Today's Message from Chip Brogden


“…All men forsook me… Notwithstanding, the Lord stood with me…” (2 Tim. 4:16,17)

We need to learn the kind of spiritual contentment that is completely dependent on Christ – not on Christians! How do we learn this lesson? Paul learned it when everyone deserted him. This would be a serious blow to most people, but Paul had learned something many years prior to this that prevented him from losing hope. Have we learned it?

“I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound” (Php. 4:12). Both! Learning contentment is not just figuring out how to make do with little, it is also making do with a lot. How we respond to having too little says something about us, but how we respond to having too much says something also. “I know both,” says Paul, whether full or hungry, whether abounding or suffering need. He is independent of his circumstances. He is the same, whether he has a lot or whether he has a little.

Regardless of what state you find yourself in today, you too can do “all things through Christ” Who strengthens you. The greater your deficiency, the greater His sufficiency. In your weakness His strength is more clearly revealed. Even in your most difficult moments you will find in Him a rich storehouse of spiritual sufficiency that exceeds all your expectations. There are no quick fixes, easy answers, or instant solutions to all your problems – but there is a Person Who lives in you, One Who has already proven Himself to be Sufficient for Anything and Master of Everything. Let Him be Enough.
