Thanksgiving Focus: God Has No Needs!

by TerryLema

For the last months, the politicians have been flooding every media available. They want our support, they want our vote, they want our money. They have a multitude of needs, and they expect us to meet them.

Our GOD has no needs – no, not one!

“For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.” [John 5:26

He is gloriously Self Sufficient! He does not need anything from us, which makes the fact that He “wants” us all the more glorious!

“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,” [Ephesians 3:16]

Our God has it all! Glorious Riches…And He never runs out! Riches, Wisdom, Glory, Power, Grace, Love.

The world around us proves it can never satisfy. It is always running out. We get periodic warnings that Social Security is set to run out. The government might shut down for lack of funding. We have had shortages of goods repeatedly over the last years. We have lived through gas shortages and food shortages and toilet paper shortages.

But our God has “life in Himself” (and “glorious riches”). And now He lives in us through the Indwelling Holy Spirit and graciously supplies all we need.
