Manna for Your Morning

“O our God, won’t you stop them? We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help.” — 2 Chronicles 20:12 (NLT) In 2 Chronicles 20:2, messengers informed Jehoshaphat, that a vast army from Edom was marching against him. In 2 Chronicles 20:6, Jehoshaphat prayed, “O LORD, God of our ancestors, you alone are the God who is in heaven. You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth. You are powerful and mighty; no one can stand against you!” When our enemy attacks, may we remember that no one can stand against Yahweh, our mighty God. He is greater! Look to Yahweh at all times, not just in times of trouble, for our help comes from Him. My help comes from Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to stumble; He who keeps you will not slumber. — Psalms 121:2-3 (LSB)

Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts. On the glorious splendor of Your majesty and on Your wonderful works, I will meditate. — Psalms 145:3-5 (NASB1995) “You’re kind and tenderhearted to those who don’t deserve it and very patient with people who fail you. Your love is like a flooding river overflowing its banks with kindness.” (Psalms 145:8 TPT) “You are the Lord who reigns over your never-ending kingdom through all the ages of time and eternity! You are faithful to fulfill every promise you’ve made. You manifest yourself as kindness in all you do.” (Psalms 145:13 TPT) “You draw near to those who call out to you, listening closely, especially when their hearts are true.” (Psalms 145:18 TPT) Let us draw near to Yahweh. For in Him we live and move and exist [that is, in Him we actually have our being], as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also ar...

Then a certain prophet came to see King Ahab of Israel and told him, “This is what the LORD says: Do you see all these enemy forces? Today I will hand them all over to you. Then you will know that I am the LORD.” — 1 Kings 20:13 (NLT) Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. (Psalms 24:8 NASB1995) In First Samuel 17:47 (NASB1995), David says: “…that all this assembly may know that the LORD does not deliver by sword or by spear; for the battle is the LORD’s and He will give you into our hands.” In 2 Chronicles 20:15 (NASB1995), the LORD said to His people, “Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God’s.” Yahweh does not change, He is faithful to deliver His people. Whatever battles you are facing today, know that the battle belongs to God. It is not yours. With our enemies is only an arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles.” (See 2 Chronicles 32:8 NASB199...

Then Elijah stood in front of them and said, “How much longer will you waver, hobbling between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him!” But the people were completely silent. — 1 Kings 18:21 (NLT) Don’t be one of the, “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yahweh is near in the valley of decision.” (See Joel 3:14 LSB) James 1:6 (NKJV) says, he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. We should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men… (See Ephesians 4:14) Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve. Set before you is life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; (See Deuteronomy 30:19) And let us not stay silent, but be like the people who saw Yahweh consume the burnt offering, in 1 Kings 18:38-39. They fell on their faces and said, “Yahweh, He is God; Yah...

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. — Psalms 34:19 (NASB1995) The righteous may face many challenges, troubles, and hardships, but we can always count on two things. One, the LORD is with us, just as He was with Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego in the fiery furnace.(See Daniel 3:22-25) In Isaiah 43:2 (NKJV), He says: “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.” The second thing to remember is that He delivers us out of ALL our afflictions. Nothing is too difficult for our great and mighty God. Amen.

What then shall we say to all these things? If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us?  — Romans 8:31 (AMP) Yahweh is both, for us and with us. Let us make sure we are wholeheartedly with Him. For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” (See 1 Samuel 16:7 NKJV) Second Chronicles 16:9 (NLT) says: “The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him…” We cannot straddle the fence. We are either walking with Yahweh, Yeshua and the Holy Spirit, or we are rolling with the devil, this world, or our flesh. For His ways are higher than our ways,
 and His thoughts higher than our thoughts. (See Isaiah 55:9) And let us not get caught up in religious traditions and surface level rituals, just going through the motions. May our hearts be truly devoted and connected to our heavenly Father, King Yeshua, and living as citizens and ambassadors of His everla...
