Manna for Your Morning

“I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God’s law with all my heart. But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me.” — Romans 7:21-23 (NLT) In order to win the war in our minds, we must feed the spirit man instead of the flesh. The one we feed the most grows stronger. Instead of fulfilling the desires of our flesh, let us renew our minds with the Word of God. …let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. (See Romans 12:2 NLT) And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. (Galatians 5:24-25 NKJV) “ Who will [rescue me and] set me free from this body of death [this corrupt, mortal existence]? Thanks be to God [for my delive...

“Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.” — Proverbs 30:5 (NLT) The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.

For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. (Joshua 1:8 NKJV) May we meditate on the Word day and night and observe what it says. Then we will make our way prosperous and then we will have good success. The Word of God is our only offensive weapon against the enemy. It is the sword of the Spirit. (See Ephesians 6:17) In Matthew, Chapter 4, when Yeshua was in the desert, being tempted by the devil, He spoke the Word, and the devil left Him. Speak “ It is written… ”

Come back to the place of safety, all you prisoners who still have hope! I promise this very day that I will repay two blessings for each of your troubles. — Zechariah 9:12 (NLT) If you have strayed away from ABBA Father come back home. Take refuge in Him. “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD. (Jeremiah 17:7 NKJV) I love you, LORD; you are my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. (Psalms 18:1-2 NLT)  But as for me, I will sing about your power. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress. O my Strength, to you I sing praises, for you, O God, are my refuge, the God who shows me unfailing love. (Psalms 59:16-17 NLT)

The rich and the poor have this in common, the LORD is the maker of them all. — Proverbs 22:2 (NKJV) “I, even I, am He who comforts you. Who are you that you should be afraid of a man who will die, and of the son of a man who will be made like grass? And you forget the LORD your Maker, Who stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth…” (See Isaiah 51:12-13 NKJV) May we never forget our Maker. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. (Psalms 95:6 NKJV) Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. (Psalms 100:4) Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, and all that is [deep] within me, bless His holy name. (Psalms 103:1AMP) All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to Yahweh, and all the families of the nations will worship before You. For the kingdom is Yahweh’s and He rules over the nations. — Psalms 22:27-28 (LSB)

Then he said to me, “This is what the LORD says to Zerubbabel: It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.” — Zechariah 4:6 (NLT) This is what the LORD says: “Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:5 NLT) Put no confidence in human strength, instead, be led by the Holy Spirit of GOD, Who dwells within you. Rely on Him to do all that He has called you to do. …if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” (See Romans 8:13-15 NLT) “O Sovereign LORD! You made the heavens and earth by your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for you! ” — Jeremiah 32:17 ...

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” — Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT) The LORD is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray. He leads the humble in doing right, teaching them his way. (Psalms 25:8-9 NLT) He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. (Psalms 23:3 NLT) Show me the right path, O LORD; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you. (Psalms 25:4-5 NLT) May our steps stay on His path; Let us not waver from following Yahweh. (See Psalms 17:5)
