What does the Bible say about the Lord being our portion?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible signifies that the Lord Himself is our portion, providing us with all we need for life and godliness.
In Lamentations 3:24, Jeremiah proclaims, 'The Lord is my portion, saith my soul.' This declaration emphasizes that God Himself is the ultimate inheritance for His people. Rather than earthly possessions or achievements, the believer's identity is rooted in a personal relationship with Jehovah Jesus, who offers a complete and fulfilling portion. This concept is further explored in the life of the Levites, who, unlike other tribes, were allotted God Himself as their inheritance, affirming that God's presence is far more valuable than any material wealth (Numbers 18:20).
