Pray the Word with David Platt is a resource from radical.net.

Psalm chapter 104, verses 27 and 28.

These all look to you to give them their food in due season.

When you give it to them, they gather it up.

When you open your hand, they are filled with good things.

Oh, I love Psalm 104, the way it depicts God from the very beginning as very great clothes with splendor and majesty, covering himself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens

like a tent. Then it goes on to describe the land and the waters as a display of his glory.

It describes how God set the earth on its foundations.

It gives pictures of his glory in the valleys and on the mountains and the way he provides

for all kinds of creatures, for donkeys who quenched their thirst,

for birds of the heavens that are provided for by him, for wild goats and rock badgers

and beasts of the forest that creep about.

You see, all of these different creatures.

And then you get to verse 27 and it says

they all look to you to give them their food and do season. Basically it's this powerful picture

of God as the supernatural provider for all creatures on the earth, including you and me. God provides sustenance for each one of us on a daily basis.

We look to him for breath. The reality is even people who hate God get their very breath from God,

their sustenance from God on a daily basis.

So, as we're praying together through this pandemic and praying for specific things that people are sending in to radical.net slash prayer requests.

So let me encourage you to continue to send in.

Again, a request there that specifically apply to your life, your family,

your church, community, city, in the middle of this pandemic and its effects on our lives.
