In this second part of our three-part series on 3 Core Questions, we’re diving deep into Question #2: “Who is your provision?” 

It’s easy to believe that all we have comes from our own efforts, but today, we’ll dive into what it means to truly recognize God as our provider. Together, we’ll unpack how this perspective shift can transform not just our finances, but our entire approach to stewardship. 

Join me as we uncover how to lean on God’s abundant provision and discover the peace and freedom that comes from trusting in His perfect plan.

In this episode, John discusses: 

  • Understanding who is the ultimate provider

  • Reflecting on the sources of financial provision

  • Recognizing God’s provision in our daily life

  • Avoiding comparison with others’ financial situations 

Key Takeaways:

  • Relying solely on one’s own efforts for provision leads to stress and dissatisfaction while recognizing God as the ultimate provider brings with it more peace and a sense of gratitude.

  • George ​Müller’s story illustrates an unwavering faith in God’s provision and how it led to miraculous outcomes, once feeding 300 orphans with unexpected bread and milk.

  • The temptation to covet others’ provision of wealth or success, distracts from the joy and contentment that come from trusting in God’s personal provision.

  • Shifting the mindset from personal provision to God’s provision changes the way financial decisions are considered and made, fostering a reliance on divine wisdom rather than on personal capability or societal pressures. 

“He may not always provide in the ways we expect or want him to, but his provision is always exactly what we need—nothing more, nothing less.”
