Trust Me - All Our Daily Bread Daily Devotionals for 2026

Read: 1 Kings 17:7-16 | Bible in a Year: Leviticus 13; Matthew 26:26-50

Do not worry about tomorrow.
Matthew 6:34

After graduation from college, I had a low-paying job. Money was tight, and sometimes I didn't even have enough for my next meal. I learned to trust God for my daily provision.

It reminded me of the prophet Elijah's experience. During his prophetic ministry, he learned to trust God to meet his daily needs. Shortly after Elijah pronounced God's judgment of a drought in Israel, God sent him to a deserted place, Kerith Ravine, where He used the ravens to bring Elijah his daily meals and refresh him with water from the brook (1 Kings 17:1-4).

God supplies all our needs—one day at a time.

But a drought occurred. The brook shrank to a tiny stream, and slowly became a mere trickle. It was only when the brook had dried up that God said: "Go at once to Zarephath . . . . I have directed a widow there to supply you with food" (v. 9). Zarephath was in Phoenicia, whose inhabitants were enemies of the Israelites. Would anyone offer Elijah shelter? And would a poor widow have food to share?

Most of us would rather God provided in abundance long before our resources were depleted rather than just enough for each day. But our loving Father whispers, Trust Me. Just as He used ravens and a widow to provide for Elijah, nothing is impossible for Him. We can count on His love and power to meet our daily needs.

Faithful Father, thank You for knowing exactly what we need before we even ask. Help us to trust You for our daily needs.

God supplies all our needs—one day at a time.
