Many people hesitate to give because they worry they will not have enough left for themselves. This fear comes from forgetting what God has already promised. Scripture tells us that the Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. God is the source of every resource.

If He is the One who creates and sustains life, then we can trust Him not to abandon those who choose generosity. The call to give is not about losing, but about trusting that God will continue to provide.

God enriches us in many ways so that we can use those blessings to be generous.

And my God will supply [a]all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19

Trusting God to Provide

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells his followers not to be anxious about food, drink, or clothing, assuring them in Matthew 6:32 that their heavenly Father knows their needs. This promise reflects God’s care for his people, but it does not mean that no believer has ever suffered hunger or exposure.

God’s provision is a general truth seen throughout Scripture. He meets the needs of those who belong to him, yet there have been situations where Christians have faced extreme hardship. These exceptions do not cancel the promise but remind us that God defines and fulfills our needs according to his wisdom.

Jesus also gives the condition for living in this assurance. One must seek first God’s kingdom and righteousness. When believers focus on his purposes and glory, they can rest in the confidence that he will provide what is truly necessary for their lives.

But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you.

Matthew 6:33
