How do we know that God can meet our needs?

The assurance that God can meet our needs is rooted in His promises as found in Scripture. Jesus explicitly states in the Gospel of John, 'All that the Father giveth unto me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out' (John 6:37). In Mark 9, when the father of the possessed boy expresses doubt, Jesus redirects the focus back to the father’s belief. This highlights that encountering God’s provision and grace hinges on our willingness to engage with Him through faith. Jesus encourages believers that their perceived inadequacies can be overcome through His strength. Therefore, when Christians come to Him, even with a faith that feels small or imperfect, they can trust that He is both willing and able to meet their needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19).
