Manna for Your Morning

“God rescued me from the grave, and now my life is filled with light.’ “Yes, God does these things again and again for people. He rescues them from the grave so they may enjoy the light of life.” — Job 33:28-30 (NLT) My eyes are always on the LORD, for he rescues me from the traps of my enemies. (Psalms 25:15 NLT) When the righteous cry [for help], the LORD hears and rescues them from all their distress and troubles. (Psalms 34:17 AMP) Yahweh is faithful to rescue us again and again. Let us proclaim the praises of Him who called us out of darkness into His marvelous light! (See 1 Peter 2:9 NKJV) He called us out of bondage and into a life full of His gracious blessings. Praise the Lord; praise God our savior! For each day he carries us in his arms. Interlude. Our God is a God who saves! The Sovereign LORD rescues us from death. — Psalms 68:19-20 (NLT)

...and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and exist, as  even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’ — Acts 17:26-28 (NASB1995) “Therefore God overlooked and disregarded the former ages of ignorance; but now He commands all people everywhere to repent [that is, to change their old way of thinking, to regret their past sins, and to seek God’s purpose for their lives],” (Acts 17:30 AMP) Repent of your sins and turn to Him. “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD...” (See Jeremiah 29:13-14)

“And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.” — 1 Corinthians 13:13 (NKJV) Now there remains, faith, an abiding trust in God and His promises. We have hope, the confident expectation of eternal salvation, and love, an unselfish love for others growing out of God’s love for us. But of these three, the Holy Scriptures say, the greatest of these is love. (See 1 Corinthians 13:13 AMP) Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; (1 Corinthians 13:4-6 NASB1995) Love bears all things [regardless of what comes], believes all things [looking for the best in each one], hopes all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times], endures all things [without weakening].  (1 Corinthians 13:7 AMP) In John 13:35, Yeshua said to His dis...

Jesus replied, “The Son of Man is the farmer who plants the good seed. The field is the world, and the good seed represents the people of the Kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the evil one. The enemy who planted the weeds among the wheat is the devil. The harvest is the end of the world, and the harvesters are the angels.” — Matthew 13:37-39 (NLT) In Luke 11:23 (AMP), Yeshua said: “He who is not with Me [believing in Me as Lord and Savior] is against Me [there is no impartial position]; and he who does not gather with Me [assisting in My ministry], scatters.” Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve. (See Joshua 24:15) “The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will remove from his Kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. And the angels will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s Kingdom. Anyone with ears to hear should listen and unders...

Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD.” And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice. — 1 Kings 19:11-12 (NKJV) Elijah was going through stormy times, fleeing for his life, from Jezebel. And he positioned himself to hear God's voice. When an Angel of the Lord appears to Moses, in the wilderness, he drew near to observe, and the voice of the Lord came to him, (See Acts 7:30-31 NKJV). May we position ourselves to hear the voice of the LORD by drawing near to Him. Draw near in thanksgiving, prayer, praise, worship and by reading the Holy Scriptures. Give ear and hear His voice. Listen and obey. The LORD of hosts is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance. ...

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]. — 1 Peter 5:6-7 (AMP) In order for the peace of God to rule in our heads and our hearts we must humble ourselves and acknowledge that we are under the mighty hand of God. He has the whole world in His hand and nothing is too difficult for Him. His purpose will prevail. (See Proverbs 19:21 NLT) Cast all your cares, worries and concerns on Him and trust Almighty God, that His plans are good and His timing is always perfect.
