GOD'S PROVIDENCE TOWARDS JESUS

THE maintenance of Christ during his mortal life illustrates the same principle. He was not allowed to use the miraculous power bestowed upon him, for the provision of his personal wants, though he fed a crowd of 5,000 persons with a few loaves and fishes. Yet he had to live. He was a poor man. His own account of himself was "The foxes have holes, the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man hath not where to lay His head"(Luke 9:58). How was he provided for? The providence of God was visible in the raising up of friends who ministered unto him of their substance" (Luke 8:3).
