ALL SUFFICIENT
In Hebrew, El Shaddai means “the All-Sufficient One,” or “the God Who is more than enough.”
You can continue to trust God to meet you at the point of your needs. God is more than enough for you.
In the original context of this verse, Paul—who was in prison at the writing of this letter—was thanking the Philippians for abundantly and generously providing for his needs. They helped him when no one else did.
This means God is not bound to meet our needs until we meet the needs of somebody. Cultivate a generous heart that is always ready and willing to be of help and support to others.
In this way, God will also ensure that your needs are also met. We all need a shoulder. We all need somebody to lean on. There is nobody on earth who doesn't need anything.
The rich could buy health and bribe death if money is everything.
Be the reason somebody will give a testimony in Church.
To be prosperous and ever-flourishing is when you allow God to bless others through you.
God loves a generous giver. He delights in being even more generous to us than we are to Him. We can’t out-give God!
If you support the work of God and others with your substance, Jehovah EL-Shaddai will make your NEEDS His care!
Shalom Aleichem
