Dear Heavenly Father,
I thank you today that You are the All Sufficient one. There is nothing today that I will encounter that You are not sufficient to handle in and through me.
Thank you that this sufficiency encompasses enough strength for all I need to do and be today and sufficient nourishment for my mind, my body, and my spirit. Help me to lean into You and Your word, as You, the Nourisher, give me all I need today to accomplish all that is in front of me.
O Lord, You are clothed in splendor and robed in majesty. You are armed with strength and are the Invincible, Unchangable and Unchanging God of my life in whom and with whom NOTHING is impossible!
Thank you that you are the Mighty One, armed with strength on my behalf.
Grant me divine wisdom in every place I walk today. Give me an undivided heart to stand in awe of Your name. Encase me in Your presence today in a powerful way.
In the mighty name of Jesus I ask these things, with thanksgiving, amen.
Questions: How does it affect your actions/attitude knowing that you have a God with all the attributes we have just talked about? How does it affect the way you treat your co-worker or acquaintances?

what a beautifully written devotional.I pray for wisdom daily. This is the last week that my husband has a job.. we’ve thought for the last 2 weeks this is it.. but they’ve let him work, and I know that was God extending it ,if he had been laid off when they first said our bills would not have been paid up or had grocery money. thank God they are now,I went with him yesterday to put in resumes at other places. I know God will supply him with a job soon.and If he doesn’t I know God will furnish our needs.There is so much tension at this job this week because of the lay offs, please pray that my husband can keep faith in the mist of turmoil there.He’s gets so worried at times. I know this is alot of stress on him he’s always been the provider for us, it’s going to be so hard for him not to have a job.
Dearest Ladies, there is another among us who needs prayer desperately. It is our precious little Michelle and she needs the very things Gail speaks of here. She is hurting, physically, emotionally and spiritually and ask me to pray…and share.
She needs to know that His grace is sufficient, that His mercy is endless. She told me she needs prayer to get thru this time right now..and this has been lingering.
Dear Jesus, wrap your Loving Arms around Your precious daughter, Michelle. Lord, may she feel Your presence so strongly…Your Love and Mercy…and Your Grace that Is sufficient in these times. Lord…also send her an encourager….as she is feels very alone in this. Dear Jesus, I know You are there with her….and may she climb into Your Loving Arms for a while…and just bask in Your Love, Mercy and Grace. Give her the strength that she needs….guide her to help, if that be Your will, Dear Jesus. We are trusting you in this, for You and only You know all about her.
In Jesus name…….as we bow before You, Lord….with our request
Ladies……I just received an e-mail from LindaR….and we must pray! She and her husband have been battling a terrible flu. They must get to the doctor today and she has asked that we pray, as they are both so weak and it is going to be very difficult for them to get there. Please let’s pray for them.
Father, God…we come before you…….Lord, we lift Linda and Terry up to Your very Throne Room…..place them at Your feet, asking that You touch them with your Healing Hand.
Lord, You know all that is going on in their weak bodies and ultimately, only You can heal…….We asked that You give the doctors wisdom in treating them…and that You, Jesus, guide them…work thru them, giving them the knowledge in knowing exactly how to bring them back to good health.
Give Linda and Terry peace about this. Give them the strength to get there for the help they need…..Oh Jesus, how we bow down, humbly before You….asking for your favor in this situation….as we Praise You for Who You Are!
In Jesus Mighty Name, we are believing!
Dear Gail,
Thank you for these studies on the names given our God in the scriptures. The sufficiency of my God to handle all things in my life has been brought home to me over and over again in the last few weeks. For several years, I have had a debt that I didn’t feel that I should have to pay (co-signed loan) but last week I finally put it in the Lord’s hands and wrote the loan company with my offer to pay it out a little at a time. I haven’t had an answer yet but whatever it may be, God will be there to provide the answers. God IS sufficient for all my needs.

I have never had a problem with really caring for my co-workers and acquaintances. I enjoy people and easily love them. I don’t mean to boast, but it is the way God made me. Sometimes I think He made to to love too deeply.
I have no problem encouraging others with God’s promises…that His mercy is endless, His grace is sufficient and His love, unconditional, however it is much harder to embrace that for myself.
I struggle with those very things even though I know, that in the past, He has always given me the grace sufficient for every trial. My emotions get in the way and as much as I hate to admit it, I still have strongholds in my life.
I realize I need to spend more time with Him…grow in faith and trust. I seek the desire for that and was thinking just this morning that I must allow Him to break me free of these strongholds….and be willing to open my hear and hands to let go of these things.
I also realize that I must take that step toward Him…and only when I step toward Him for these things, He will run to me with open arms, forgiveness and love.
I would ask prayer for just that….and for me, to ask you women to pray for me to be convicted enough to take that step….frightens me to death. I desire the desire to put it all in His loving Hands….know He loves me in my feeble weaknesses.
