Matthew 2:11 - God provides if you are in the center of His will

“they presented to Him gifts—gold and frankincense and myrrh.”

Matthew 2:11



One lesson we can glean from the Christmas story is that if we are in the center of God’s will … He will provide for us. Mary and Joseph were in the center of God’s will when the wise men from the East came to worship the King. They presented Jesus with gold, frankincense and myrrh. Mary and Joseph didn’t have to go around seeking financial blessings and provisions. It came to them. The same will happen for us if we stay in line with the will of God for our lives. Remain faithful to Him. The Word tells us what God expects of His children. Do what He wills. He has called each of us to do something for Him. Know what He has called and gifted you to do and then do it … with joy. There’s no need to worry or fret about your future if you are living for Him. God will take care of you.

Father, keep us in the center of Your will. May we not live apart from You. We thank You that we don’t need to worry or fret about our future because we are living for You. You will take care of us and our needs. You will provide for us just as You did for Mary, Joseph and Jesus those many years ago. You are great. We love and appreciate You and all that You do and are. In Jesus’ name we pray. Ame
