Manna for Your Morning

When David and his men came to the town, it was burned, and their wives and their sons and their daughters had been taken captive. Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept until they were too exhausted to weep [any longer]. Further, David was greatly distressed because the people spoke of stoning him, for all of them were embittered, each man for his sons and daughters. But David felt strengthened and encouraged in the LORD his God. — 1 Samuel 30:3-4, 6 (AMP) So David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And He answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all.” (1 Samuel 30:8 NKJV) When we are dealing with traumatic circumstances, we may weep, but let us also find strength and encourage ourselves in Yahweh, our great and mighty GOD. Then seek His will for what actions we are to take. Knowing that we can do all things [which He has called us to do] through Him who strength...

O LORD, how long will you forget me? Forever? How long will you look the other way? How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul, with sorrow in my heart every day? How long will my enemy have the upper hand? — Psalms 13:1-2 (NLT) Never believe the lies of the enemy when he says Abba Father has forgotten about you. Genesis 30:22-23 (NLT) says: God remembered Rachel’s plight and answered her prayers by enabling her to have children. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son. “God has removed my disgrace,” she said. Just as He remembered Rachel, Yahweh remembers your plight. He knows your struggles and is intimately aware of all that concerns you. He promises to be with you always, and He is faithful to bring you through all of your troubles, trials and temptations. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday. — Psalms 37:5-6 (NKJV)

Then Job answered and said: “How long will you torment my soul, and break me in pieces with words? These ten times you have reproached me; You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.” — Job 19:1-3 (NKJV) Proverbs 18:21 says, death and life are in the power of the tongue. In Genesis 27:33 (NLT), after Isaac had mistakenly blessed Jacob, he told Esau that the blessing must stand! Our words are powerful. When we cut people with our words, we may go back and apologize, but the damage has already been done. There is one who speaks like the piercings of a sword, but the tongue of the wise promotes health. (Proverbs 12:18 NKJV) Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him. (Proverbs 29:20 NKJV) May we be slow to speak and carefully choose our words. Let us speak wise words, those of life, love, peace, and blessing. Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweet and delightful to the soul and healing to the body. (Proverbs 16:24 AMP)  In Exodus 4:12 (NLT),...

Abraham planted a tamarisk tree at Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God. — Genesis 21:33 (NASB1995) Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. (Isaiah 40:28 NLT) All that comes our way in this life, will eventually come to pass. But the LORD is the only true God. He is the living God and the everlasting King! The whole earth trembles at his anger. The nations cannot stand up to his wrath. (Jeremiah 10:10 NLT) He is El Olam, the eternal God, Who lives forever. “There is none like the God of Jeshurun (Israel), Who rides the heavens to your help, and through the skies in His majestic glory. “The eternal God is your refuge and dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms...” (See Deuteronomy 33:26-27 AMP). Trust in the LORD forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength. (Isaiah 26:4...

“But true wisdom and power are found in God; counsel and understanding are his. What he destroys cannot be rebuilt. When he puts someone in prison, there is no escape. If he holds back the rain, the earth becomes a desert. If he releases the waters, they flood the earth.” — Job 12:13-15 (NLT) God made the earth by His power; He established the world by His wisdom and by His understanding and skill He has stretched out the heavens. (Jeremiah 10:12 AMP) Yahweh is the very source of all power, wisdom and knowledge. If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him. (James 1:5 AMP) Fear of the LORD is the foundation of true wisdom. All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom. Praise him forever! — Psalms 111:10 (NLT)

Thereafter, Hagar used another name to refer to the LORD, who had spoken to her. She said, “You are the God who sees me.” She also said, “Have I truly seen the One who sees me?” — Genesis 16:13 (NLT) Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she finally ran away. However, the angel of the LORD found Hagar beside a spring of water in the wilderness... (See Genesis 16:6-7 NLT) Wherever we go, we can never escape from the Spirit of Yahweh. We can never get away from His Presence. (See Psalms 139:7) Psalms 139:9-10 says: “If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.” When it seems as though you are wandering in the wilderness, remember that He is “the God Who Sees me.” (El Roi) He is with you and is aware of your circumstances. Yahweh will instruct you and guide you along the right path. Psalms 16:11 says, He will show you the way of life, granting you the joy of His presence and the pleasures of li...
