Nancy De Maswalgemuth reminds us that sometimes God provides for our needs in some unexpected ways.

God can still send ravens with food.

God can still use poor, needy, destute widows to provide for the needs of his servants.

But I think a lot of times we don't see the power of God at work on our behalf

because we're not willing to be out in those extenuating circumstances where if God doesn't come through, we're going to die.

This is the Reviver Hearts podcast with Nancy Demasgamuth, co-author of Seeking Him.

For November 21st, 2023, I'm Danagresh. Or some ways God has provided for you.

Today we're going to go back to the beginning of creation to see how God provided food for his people and how he still provides.

Even though Nancy recorded this before COVID-19 had hit the United States hard, it's still just as true and relevant.

Today, Nancy starts with a hymn. the glass of wine, Praise the Lord, for me in its mind.

Holy's first in the end of the year of

ever where the kind of music you're accustomed to hear

so that's probably not the kind of music you're accustomed to hearing on

Revive Our Hearts and maybe not in your church, probably not in your church.

And you may have found the lyrics a little bit difficult to understand.

Those words were written by the British poet John Milton, the first of 24 stanzas he wrote, paraphrasing

Psalm 136. And he wrote those lines when he was 15 years old and a student at Cambridge University.

That first Danza we just listened to says, let us with a gladsome mind, praise the Lord, for he is kind. For his mercies shall endure, ever faithful,

ever sure. So every one of those 24 stanzas ends with that same refrain,

for his mercy shall endure, ever faithful, ever sure.

Well, we've been looking at song 136,

we're coming to the end of this series, and I want to invite you to turn to that
