“And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.”
Genesis 21:14(KJV)
Our opening scripture shows us Hagar and her child been driven from the house of Abraham, the Bible tells us that Abraham gave them bread and a bottle of water and sent them away. This shows you that whatever a human being gives you is just enough. This is because as wealthy as Abraham was, what he gave them was just enough, and just enough was not enough to meet all their needs.
Even if you are from a very wealthy home and you believe that there is nothing that you need that your father cannot give you, it is still just enough. This is because when God gives you a dream, you will discover that the wealth of your father will not be able to sustain it. This is because whatever dream God gives you will require His involvement in your life.
Abraham gave Hagar and her child bread and a bottle of water, but when they got to the wilderness, they ran out of supply and the Bible records that the child became thirsty and began to cry. Hagar not wanting to see her child die went away from the child and wept. The Bible records that God heard the cry of the lad and in Genesis 21:19 the Bible says, “And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.”
I want you to know that while she was crying for provision, the well of water was already provided by God there. Therefore, if you have been crying and asking God to meet your needs, I want you to know today that God has already done something about your needs, all you need is for God to open your eyes; because the provision you are looking for is already there. Praise God.
PRAYER
Dear Father I ask that you open my eyes to be able to see the opportunities and the provisions that you have already made available for me in Jesus Name. Amen.
For further study read:
Isaiah 65:24, Genesis 22:8,13,14.
DOING THE WORD
Instead of crying or complaining, ask the Lord to show you your provision.
