GOD IS MY PROVIDER
βToday, Tomorrow, and Alwaysβ
Philippians 4:19; Romans 8:32
INTRODUCTION
In a world ruled by fear, inflation, uncertainty, and false promises, believers in the Dispensation of Grace stand on a different foundation. Our provision does not rest on governments, rituals, religious systems, or worksβbut on Godβs grace in Christ. God has always been a provider, but how He provides today must be rightly divided (2 Timothy 2:15).
