The Strong’s definition for ‘provision’ is: fore-planning, premeditated, making preparation for. We are not to make provision for our flesh. We do that by storing up spiritual provision. We need anchor verses that will secure us in the face of a temptation to sin.

The enemy uses buried unresolved issues to entrap us. He also uses unconfessed sin ~ hidden sins that continually corrupt our way. Each fleshly reaction indicates that there is something hidden.

Accountability is a key to spiritual provision. James 5:16 says, “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” Ask the Holy Spirit to give you a spiritual accountability partner. It is one of God’s provisions for spiritual maturity.

We need each other. Colossians 2:19 says, “…holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God.”
