    Living In Lack In The Middle Of Abundance

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jul 4, 2025
     | 438 views

    As Christians, if we are called to live in the abundance of God’s provision, love, and grace, why are so many of us living in a mindset of lack—spiritually, emotionally, and even materially? Why do we say that we serve a God of abundance, and settle for scarcity?

    John 10:10 – “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Philippians 4:19 – “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Introduction: As Christians, if we are called to live in the ...read more
