God is the provider

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain quota every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in My law or not Exodus 16:4

Most people are used to the idea that they are the providers for their household. That because you go to work and make money, you are the one that is bringing in provisions. So when you’re not able to make money anymore, you’re sunk.

If this is you, then you have not understood the meaning of Jehovah Jireh. If God is truly your provider, then you understand that, with or without a job, God has taken the responsibility to see you are well taken care of. The anxiety we feel when we are not the one producing the money, is what keeps us from being able to trust God in hard situations.

If you read through the scriptures, you will see that God is always faithful to bring provisions to those who trust in him. Matthew 6:33 tells us to seek first the kingdom of God for a reason, because God has constantly shown himself to provide for those who care about His matter. To list a few examples, the sacrifice for Abraham in the place of Isaac, Joseph and his family during the famine in Egypt, the mana and quail for the children of Israel in the wilderness, the widow, her son and Elijah during the famine, David while he was in the caves, Daniel and the 3 Hebrew men in Babylon, and so on and so forth.

So, the real bread winner is God, your responsibility is to go and gather. Trust in God to provide, and remain in Christ. God never fails, so cast your cares [worries, anxiety] on Him. Make His matter your matter, and you’ll find that your matter will also become Gods matter.
