HE IS MY PORTION!

Yesterday while singing at church I got emotionally caught up in a song entitled “Made Me Glad”.  The words of the chorus are:

You are my shield, my strength,

My portion, deliver,

My shelter, strong tower,

My very present help in time of need

One particular part in the chorus where it talked about God being “My portion” really ministered to me. While singing those words, God dropped a word in my spirit that blessed me so much. He spoke to me “I am just the amount you need in your situation.” While He was speaking, I saw a measuring cup and it was filled with a liquid and that measuring cup was pouring, but it never became empty. God spoke to me again and said “I will never run out of what you need Me to be”. I was overtaken by His presence. It was exactly what I needed.

When I got home I was still meditating on those words that God spoke to me. I decided to look up the term “portion” in the dictionary. It is defined as “an individual's part or share of something”(www.merriamwebster.com). I continued to process it all. I thought about how awesome it is to know that no matter what I face in my life, no matter my struggle, or my issue; God is my share! Share of what, you may ask?

My share of strength

My share of comfort

My share of peace

My share of healing

May these same words encourage you today as you grasp the fact that not only is He my portion (share), He is your portion (share) too! Let Him be what you need Him to be today.
