God’s Faithfulness for Everyday Needs
Opening Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, we praise Your Holy name, O Jehovah Jireh. You are the God who sees and provides. You are faithful to meet our everyday needs. As we study this devotional, we pray You will open our understanding to these words and give us new illuminations and insight into Your living word. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
Message
It is comforting to know that the God of all Creation provides for our every need. “Who am I that You are mindful of me” Who am I that Almighty God takes notice of me and meets my every need in my daily life. It is a great honor and privilege that our Maker takes such a loving and tender notice of us that we should not want for anything. “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He lays me down in green pasture and leads me to still waters”. He provides for all my needs even if I am unaware of just what those needs are. He knows the hearts of man and knows all of our needs even before we know them ourselves and meets those needs.
Psalm 8:4 (NKJV): “What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?”
Psalm 23:1–2 (NKJV): “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.”
Matthew 6:8 (NKJV): “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.”
Philippians 4:19 (NKJV): “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Psalm 139:1–2 (NKJV): “O Lord, You have searched me and known me.2 You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off.”
According to the Hebrew translation, Jireh means to see or to provide. The Almighty God – God of the Universe – God of all creation sees our needs and provides for our everyday needs with what He knows we are in need of.
Matthew 6:8 (NKJV): “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.”
Philippians 4:19 (NKJV): “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
That’s not to say we sit back and say: “Ok, God. You know what I need, so I’m waiting for you to provide. I’m afraid to say, people, that’s just not the way it works. You see, we also have to do our part in providing for ourselves. The God who sees and provides; is faithful and will provide for us as we also do our part in working towards providing those provisions for ourselves as well. We need to put our trust in God by praying and telling Him what we need, we need to seek His guidance and direction through His word and we need to put our faith and trust in Him and know that He is our provider and He is faithful and just to provide for our every need.
Psalm 33:13–15 (NKJV): “13 The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men. 14 From the place of His dwelling He looks On all the inhabitants of the earth; 15 He fashions their hearts individually; He considers all their works.”
James 2:17 (NKJV): “Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.”
Psalm 37:5 (NKJV): “Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.”
God will provide for all our needs, even if we don’t see it happening or see it right away, He is working on our behalf to make sure that our every need is met. God is working behind the scenes on our behalf, even if we don’t see it.
Genesis 22:14 (NKJV): “And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”
Isaiah 64:4 (NKJV): “For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, who acts for the one who waits for Him.”
Looking back and reflecting on these truths, we are reminded that God’s care and provisions are not distant from us. They are not occasional, but rather, they are here for us always. God is steady and consistent in providing for our every need just as we need it, in His time. This stands true. even when we cannot see what He is doing. He is always working behind the scenes on our behalf. God sees what we cannot see. He knows what we cannot know. He prepares what we cannot prepare or imagine. We need only to trust Him, seek Him, and walk faithfully in the walk we have in the Lord Jesus Christ. The God who sees and provides has never failed His people, and He will not begin with us.
Romans 8:28 (NKJV): “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
Psalm 37:23-24 (NKJV): “23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand.”
We can move forward and remain confident that God is both aware of our needs and actively working to meet them. There is nothing in our lives that escapes Our Father’s attention. Nothing is too small or too great for Him to accomplish. In waiting for Him to provide for our needs, we know His hands are at work behind the scenes for us. He is arranging what we need long before we ever ask for it from Him, and long before we reach the place where we will need it. We can trust Him with all our hearts and know that Jehovah Jireh — the God who sees and provides — is faithfully watching over us.
Proverbs 16:9 (NKJV) “A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.”
Psalm 121:3–4 (NKJV) “3 He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. 4 Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.”

Questions to Ponder
1. Where have I seen God provide for me in ways I didn’t recognize until later?
2. Am I trusting God with my needs while also doing the part He has given me to do?
3. What area of my life do I need to surrender to Jehovah Jireh and trust His timing and provision?
