What does the Bible say about the Lord as our portion?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that the Lord is our portion, which signifies that He is our inheritance and source of hope.

In Lamentations 3:24, Jeremiah declares, 'The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in Him.' This statement comes from a context of despair, where Jeremiah witnesses the destruction of Jerusalem and the suffering of his people. Despite these dire circumstances, he finds hope and sufficiency in God Himself. His assertion emphasizes that God is not just a part of life, but the central and sustaining part of our existence, the reason for our hope and joy as believers.
