*DAY 16 — “The God Who Provides, Purifies, and Prepares You”*
> `“He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna… to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.” — Deuteronomy 8:3`
In today’s readings, one truth stands strong: *God shapes His people through provision, correction, and spiritual maturity.*
* In *Exodus*, God provides *manna* and gives *His law*, showing that He feeds both body and soul.
* In *Job*, God reminds us that even when suffering distorts our vision, *He sees clearly when we don’t.
* In *Ezra*, we witness God purifying His people, calling them back to holiness.
* In *Matthew*, Jesus teaches us to forgive, stay humble, and walk in purity of heart.
* In *1 Corinthians*, the Spirit invites us to grow up—from spiritual milk to spiritual maturity*—so our lives reflect Christ.
God doesn’t always just rescues you—He *refines* you. He doesn’t always just bless you—He *builds* you. Let Him provide for you, purify you, and prepare you for what’s ahead.
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
