Adrian Rogers Daily Devotional 5th January 2021 (Love Worth Finding) Message
Topic: Jesus Meets the Heart’s Deepest Need
Scripture: Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content. I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things, I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. Philippians 4:11-12
Adrian Rogers Daily Devotional 5th January 2021 Message:
When Paul wrote this, he was in prison. But he said, “I’ve learned in whatever state I am, to be content.”
The word “content” literally means “self-contained.” Back in 1929 and 1930 when the stock market crashed, there were men who jumped out of skyscrapers, committing suicide. Why? Because the things they were trying to satisfy their heart with, they lost. That’s where their security was. Friend, you’d better have your security, sufficiency and satisfaction in something that can’t be tampered with.
Paul continues, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” That literally means, I can do all things through Christ who is pouring His life into me. Learn a life of contentment. Have the contentment of His provision—Christ Himself. The deepest need of your heart can be met in the Lord Jesus Christ.
