Manna for Your Morning

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” — Matthew 6:33-34 (NKJV) Don’t worry about all the doom and gloom taking place in this world. Don’t let it distract you. First and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) God’s kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right…] (See Matthew 6:33 AMP). In John 16:33 (NKJV), Yeshua said: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:4-5 NKJV)

“Yet even now,” declares the LORD, “Return to Me with all your heart, and with fasting, weeping and mourning; and rend your heart and not your garments.” Now return to the LORD your God, for He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness and relenting of evil. — Joel 2:12-13 (NASB1995) Return to Yahweh now, with all your heart, while there is still time. For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel has said this, “In returning [to Me] and rest you shall be saved, in quietness and confident trust is your strength.” But you were not willing, (Isaiah 30:15 AMP) “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.” — Ezekiel 36:26-27 (NKJV)

Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again— my Savior and my God! Now I am deeply discouraged, but I will remember you… — Psalms 42:5-6 (NLT) Remember that God is your rock, and the Most High God their Redeemer (See Psalms 78:35). He is with you and He is for you. …joyful are those who have the God of Israel as their helper, whose hope is in the LORD their God. He made heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He keeps every promise forever. (Psalms 146:5-6 NLT) Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. (Romans 5:5 NKJV) Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all you who hope in the LORD. (Psalms 31:24 NKJV) “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!” — Lamentations 3:24 (NKJV)

As a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear Him. For He Himself knows our form; He remembers that we are but dust. — Psalms 103:14-15 (LSB) Bless Yahweh, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit,
 Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; (Psalms 103:2-4 LSB) The LORD is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. …the love of the LORD remains forever with those who fear him. (See Psalms 103:8 & 17 NLT) Our trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. (See 1 Timothy 6:17 NLT) No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly. (See Psalms 84:11) Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord—that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful. — James 5:11 (NKJV)

When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him. And he cried out with a loud voice and said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me.” For He said to him, “Come out of the man, unclean spirit!” — Mark 5:6-8 (NKJV) Even the demons recognize Jesus the Christ as the Son of the Most High God. In Matthew 24:54 (NLT), it was a Roman officer other soldiers at the crucifixion that said, “This man truly was the Son of God!” However, a majority of the scribes and Pharisees missed seeing the truth. Let us who believe, pray that all will come to believe and know that Yeshua is the Christ, the Son of the living God. (See John 6:69) For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. (John 3:17 NKJV) This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners... (See 1 Timothy 1:15 NKJV) He came that we may have l...

“Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but he who trusts in and relies on the LORD shall be surrounded with compassion and lovingkindness. Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous [who actively seek right standing with Him]; Shout for joy, all you upright in heart.” — Psalms 32:10-11 (AMP) Be glad in the LORD because His lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. (See Lamentations 3:22 NKJV) Praise Yah! For it is good to sing praises to our God; For it is pleasant and praise is becoming. He is the One who heals the brokenhearted and who binds up their wounds, (Psalms 147:1, 3 LSB). “For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, but My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, and My covenant of peace will not be shaken,” says the LORD who has compassion on you. (Isaiah 54:10 NASB1995)
