Manna for Your Morning

“And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” — Matthew 16:19 (NKJV)   Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. (Matthew 16:19) May we declare God's Word over earthly situations. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12 NKJV) Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. (Proverbs 18:21 NKJV) Speak words of life, God's Word. Forever, His word is settled in heaven [standing firm and unchangeable]. (See Psalms 119:89 AMP)

Answering, Peter said to Him, “Master, if it’s You, command me to come to You on the water.” And He said, “Come!” And Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water to go to Yeshua. But seeing the wind, he became terrified. And beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Master, save me!” — Matthew 14:28-30 (TLV) When the storm rages around you, keep your eyes on King Yeshua. He is our life preserver. He saves. Therefore, since we have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also get rid of every weight and entangling sin. Let us run with endurance the race set before us, focusing on Yeshua, the initiator and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame; and He has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God.. (Hebrews 12:1-2 TLV)

John the Baptist, who was in prison, heard about all the things the Messiah was doing. So he sent his disciples to ask Jesus, “Are you the Messiah we’ve been expecting, or should we keep looking for someone else?” — Matthew 11:2-3 (NLT) You can be certain, that we don’t need to look for anyone else. Yeshua is the Messiah, our risen Savior. After John the Baptist baptized Jesus, Matthew 3:16-17 says, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” As he sat in prison, something caused John the Baptist to doubt the Word of Yahweh. Never let difficult circumstances cause you to doubt. Yeshua is the only way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Him. (See John 14:6)

“A brother will betray his brother to death, a father will betray his own child, and children will rebel against their parents and cause them to be killed. And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved.” — Matthew 10:21-22 (NLT) When trials, troubles and temptations come your way, don’t grow weary and quit. Let us endure hardship as good soldiers of Jesus the Christ. (See 2 Timothy 2:3 NKJV) Hebrews 12:7 (NLT) instructs us to, endure divine discipline, and remember that God is treating you as his own children. Who ever heard of a child who is never disciplined by its father? James 1:12 (NLT) says: God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. Whatever challenges and difficulties you face, keep pressing on. Keep following Yeshua. ...despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. ...

For the LORD God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The LORD will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right. O LORD of Heaven’s Armies, what joy for those who trust in you. — Psalms 84:11-12 (NLT) Oh, the joys of those who trust the LORD, who have no confidence in the proud or in those who worship idols. O LORD my God, you have performed many wonders for us. Your plans for us are too numerous to list. You have no equal.
 If I tried to recite all your wonderful deeds, I would never come to the end of them. (Psalms 40:4-5 NLT) And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, for You, O Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek You. (Psalms 9:10 LSB) Proverbs 16:20 (NLT) says, those who trust the LORD will be joyful. May our joy not be based on external circumstances, but on Yahweh in Whom we trust.  The LORD is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksg...

Pray like this: … and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. — Matthew 6:9, 12 (NLT) First Corinthians 13:5 (NLT) says, love keeps no record of being wronged. Whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him [drop the issue, let it go], so that your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you your transgressions and wrongdoings [against Him and others]. (Mark 11:25 AMP) “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.” (Matthew 6:14-15 NLT)  Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding], forgiving one another [ readily and freely ], just as God in Christ also forgave you. — Ephesians 4:32 (AMP)
