Before God created the first human being, He anticipated everything we would need. Knowing we couldn’t live in the dark He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Knowing we couldn’t live under water, He created dry ground and separated the land from the water. Knowing we would need sustenance to survive so He created fruits, vegetables and grains to feed us. Only after He had prepared a planet capable of supplying all our needs did He create man in His own image.

Well it has been said, “God had a solution before we had a need!”

“You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need…”

— Philippians 4:19 (MSG)

Father God, we thank You for Your careful preparation and Your abundant provision. Amen.
