Daily Nuggets of Grace Part 6 Calm!

DAY 6 OF 7

The God of Abundance

When did you last hear a "rags to riches" story? We all love a good Cinderella story, but there's nothing like a true story. In God's Word, there is such a story about a man named Mephibosheth (I’ll just call him “M”).

The very meaning of M's home, Lo Debar, meant "not having" or "no pasture." It was a town of forgotten people, including M, son of David's best friend, Jonathan. The Scripture records in 2 Samuel 9:5 that David brought M from this place of "not having."

M's fortunes changed dramatically on the day David showed him kindness. He was adopted as one of the king's sons. He began enjoying the king's feasts at the king's table. King David restored all the lands taken from him. David also gave him resources to cultivate and bring in the harvest.35 men put at his disposal!

M was given abundance!

Does M's story sound familiar? It should be because you, as a child of God, have been brought from afar, shown kindness, given access to the throne of God, and granted abundance. The Bible's authors are not shy about speaking of our great abundance through Jesus Christ.

·He’s abundant in grace.

·He’s abundant in goodness and truth.

·He’s abundant in mercy, withholding judgment.

·He gives peace in abundance.

·In abundant suffering, there’s abundant comfort.

·He wants us to overflow with abundant hope through faith in Him!

Take time to absorb the extent of His abundance, and watch your anxieties fade! Where have you seen His abundance today?

Because we have the best seat as God’s precious children at the King's table, it's an abundance that will never run dry.

As we take our focus off our anxiety and put our attention on the One who cares for us, peace is promised to us in abundance.

Reflect and Respond

The lie that God is withholding good from you is as old as the Garden of Eden. Where have you believed that God is stingy, withholding what you need? As God leads, confess and renounce each lie.

Pray

Lord, I receive the abundance of your grace. I take my time today thinking about the generosity of Your gifts to me - grace, peace, truth, mercy, comfort, and hope.
