Manna for Your Morning

Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, and all that is [deep] within me, bless His holy name. Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget any of His benefits; Who forgives all your sins, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you [lavishly] with lovingkindness and tender mercy; — Psalms 103:1-4 (AMP) May we always remember the good things Yahweh has done for us, and continually give Him thanks. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in compassion and lovingkindness. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence]. (Psalms 103:8, 11 AMP) Bless the LORD, all you works of His, in all places of His dominion; Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul! — Psalms 103:22 (AMP)

Know and fully recognize with gratitude that the LORD Himself is God; It is He who has made us, not we ourselves [and we are His]. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with a song of thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, bless and praise His name. — Psalms 100:3-4 (AMP) God is good and all that He does is good. Every good and perfect comes from Him. May we receive them with a heart full of gratitude and a mouth that continually gives thanks. Colossians 2:6-7 (NASB1995) says, …as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. Let us always be grateful that we have received Yeshua and we can walk and live in Him. We gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. (See Romans 8:37 AMP) Whatever we go through, He is with us and we are in it to win.

Though the fig tree does not blossom and there is no fruit on the vines, though the yield of the olive fails and the fields produce no food, though the flock is cut off from the fold and there are no cattle in the stalls, yet I will [choose to] rejoice in the LORD;
I will [choose to] shout in exultation in the [victorious] God of my salvation! — Habakkuk 3:17-18 (AMP) When you are down to nothing, know that Yahweh is up to something. When it seems that nothing is working, remember our great and mighty God has already worked everything out concerning you. His lovingkindness never fails. In the face of lack, keep in mind that we serve a God of abundance and overflow (more than enough). Habakkuk 2:4 (AMP) reminds us that the righteous will live by his faith [in the true God]. So no matter how circumstances may appear, believers can choose to rejoice in Yahweh and know that He is faithful to provide for His children. Our joy is not in the provision, but in the Provider.

Jesus said to him, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. — John 14:6 (AMP) So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly My disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:31-32 NASB) If we want to know real truth, we must follow Yeshua, and continue in His Word. The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. Yeshua came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. (See John 10:10 AMP)

Drink deeply of the pleasures of this God. Experience for yourself the joyous mercies he gives to all who turn to hide themselves in him. Worship in awe and wonder, all you who’ve been made holy! For all who fear him will feast with plenty. Even the strong and the wealthy grow weak and hungry, but those who passionately pursue the Lord will never lack any good thing.  — Psalms 34:8-10 (TPT) Passionately pursue Yahweh. He gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly. (See Psalms 84:11) “Even when bad things happen to the good and godly ones, the Lord will save them and not let them be defeated by what they face.” (Psalms 34:19 TPT) “I’m energized every time I enter your heavenly sanctuary to seek more of your power and drink in more of your glory. I overflow with praise when I come before you, for the anointing of your presence satisfies me like nothing else. You are such a rich banquet of pleasure to my soul. With passion I pursue and cling ...

This is the day which Yahweh has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. — Psalms 118:24 (LSB) Oh come, let us sing for joy to Yahweh, let us make a loud shout to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, let us make a loud shout to Him with songs of praise. For Yahweh is a great God and a great King above all gods, (Psalms 95:1-3 LSB) Come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before Yahweh our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts… (Psalms 95:6-8 LSB) Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; For I trust in You; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk; For to You I lift up my soul. — Psalms 143:8 (LSB)

“Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble in dread before them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not fail you or abandon you.” — Deuteronomy 31:6 (AMP) Whatever challenges come your way, know that Yahweh, our Heavenly Father is with you. Others may leave you, but our great and mighty God is with you. He will never abandon you. In Isaiah 41:10 (AMP), He says: ‘Do not fear [anything], for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you; I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’  ‘Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You… (See Jeremiah 32:17 LSB).

“The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world…” — Psalms 19:1-4 (NLT) “O Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who displays Your splendor above the heavens! From the mouth of infants and nursing babies You have established strength because of Your adversaries, to make the enemy and the revengeful cease. When I see Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have established; What is man that You remember him, and the son of man that You care for him?” (Psalms 8:1-4 LSB) In all of His glory and splendor, our heavenly Father cares for you. “May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you hi...

No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. — Joshua 1:5 (NKJV) Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Hebrews 13:5 NKJV) And with God all things are possible. Whatever the set of circumstances that are before you, remember that Yahweh is with you . He is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen. (See Ephesians 3:20-21 AMP) Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, b...

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! — Philippians 4:4 (NASB1995) We can rejoice in the Lord because we know that the plans that He has for us are plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give us a future and a hope. (See Jeremiah 29:11 AMP) “So celebrate the goodness of God! He shows this kindness to everyone who is his. Go ahead—shout for joy, all you upright ones who want to please him!” (Psalms 32:11 TPT) And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. (See Romans 8:28 NASB1995) Be glad and give thanks to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. (See 1 Corinthians 15:57) A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones. — Proverbs 17:22 (NASB1995)

I am counting on the LORD; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word. I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn. — Psalms 130:5-6 (NLT) No matter how circumstances may appear, we can always count on the LORD, our God. He is great, and there is no God besides Him. Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV) Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. (Hebrews 3:12 NASB1995) May our hearts deeply long for more of Yahweh.

There is none like You, O Yahweh; You are great, and great is Your name in might. Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? Indeed it is Your due! For among all the wise men of the nations and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You. — Jeremiah 10:6-7 (LSB) “…Yahweh is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth quakes, and the nations cannot endure His indignation. It is He who made the earth by His power, Who established the world by His wisdom; And by His understanding He has stretched out the heavens.” (Jeremiah 10:10, 10:12 LSB) Thus says Yahweh, “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his strength, and whose heart turns away from Yahweh. (Jeremiah 17:5 LSB) Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh and whose trust is Yahweh. (Jeremiah 17:7 LSB) Set your heart to seek the one and only true God. Trust the living God in every situation. Nothing is too difficult for Him. Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed; Save m...

Thus says Yahweh, “Let not a wise man boast in his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast in his might; let not a rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am Yahweh who shows lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things,” declares Yahweh. — Jeremiah 9:23-24 (LSB) Do not boast in worldly wealth, which is here today and gone tomorrow. Let no one boast in men. Psalms 118:8 (NKJV) says: “It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.” May we pursue a deeper walker walk with the LORD and understand that it is always better to follow His ways and His Word.  I will bless Yahweh at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul will make its boast in Yahweh; The humble will hear it and rejoice. O magnify Yahweh with me, and let us exalt His name together. (Psalms 34:1-3 LSB) In God we boast all day long, and praise Your name forever. Selah (Psalms ...

  “Jeremiah, say to the people, ‘This is what the LORD says: “‘When people fall down, don’t they get up again? When they discover they’re on the wrong road, don’t they turn back? Then why do these people stay on their self-destructive path? Why do the people of Jerusalem refuse to turn back? They cling tightly to their lies and will not turn around. I listen to their conversations and don’t hear a word of truth. Is anyone sorry for doing wrong? Does anyone say, “What a terrible thing I have done”? No! All are running down the path of sin as swiftly as a horse galloping into battle!” — Jeremiah 8:4-6 (NLT) This is what the LORD says: “Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls. But you reply, ‘No, that’s not the road we want!’” (Jeremiah 6:16 NLT) Yahweh will make known to you the path of life. (See Psalms 16:11a) May we have the wisdom to walk on it.  The path of life leads up...

O LORD, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my thoughts even when I’m far away. You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, LORD. You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. — Psalms 139:1-5 (NLT) You can fool some of the people some of the time. But you “ain’t” fooling God at any time. Yahweh sees the real you, inside and out, with no filters. We do not have to pretend with Him. He sees into our very heart. Not only does He see you, but He knows you better than you know yourself. He saw who He created you to be before you became you! Before you ever seen the light of day, the number of days He planned for you were already recorded in His book.” (See Psalms 139:16 TPT) And He loves you with an everlasting love.

“The heavens are shocked at such a thing and shrink back in horror and dismay,” says the LORD. “For my people have done two evil things: They have abandoned me— the fountain of living water. And they have dug for themselves cracked cisterns that can hold no water at all!” — Jeremiah 2:12-13 (NLT) In Jeremiah 2:11 (NLT) Yahweh says: “… my people have exchanged their glorious God for worthless idols!” In Jeremiah 2:32, He says, “for years on end my people have forgotten me.” “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. Say this to those who worship other gods: “Your so-called gods, who did not make the heavens and earth, will vanish from the earth and from under the heavens.” But the LORD made the earth by his power, and he preserves it by his wisdom. With his own understanding he stretched out the heavens.” (Jeremiah 10:10-12 NLT) May we never be like the children of I...

“For the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” — Zephaniah 3:17 (NLT) …God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV) And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world. Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. (1 John 4:17-18 NLT) Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.’ Therefore with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.” — Isaiah 12:2-3 (NKJV)

“Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.” — Matthew 24:11-13 (NASB1995) In a discussion with His disciples, about the signs of the times and the end of the age, Jesus says the love of many will grow cold. In Revelation 2:4 (AMP), to the church in Ephesus, He says: “…I have this [charge] against you, that you have left your first love [you have lost the depth of love that you first had for Me].” May we never abandon the love we have for our Yeshua, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. If our love for our Savior is a burning flame that never goes out, our love for others will never grow cold. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. (1 John 4:20 NASB1995) First Peter 4:8 (AMP) says: Above all, have fervent and unfailing ...

The LORD is good, a strength and stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows [He recognizes, cares for, and understands fully] those who take refuge and trust in Him. — Nahum 1:7 (AMP) In Isaiah 29:13 (NKJV), the Lord said, “…these people draw near with their mouths and honor Me with their lips, but have removed their hearts far from Me…” Yahweh is good and it is good for us to draw near to Him, with sincere hearts. Let us make the Lord GOD our refuge and place our trust in Him alone. Be sure to tell of all His wonderful works. (See Psalms 73:28 AMP) “Move your heart closer and closer to God, and he will come even closer to you. But make sure you cleanse your life, you sinners, and keep your heart pure and stop doubting.” (James (Jacob) 4:8 TPT) “But I’ll keep coming closer and closer to you, Lord Yahweh, for your name is good to me. I’ll keep telling the world of your awesome works, my faithful and glorious God!” — Psalms 73:28 (TPT)

“Be strong and courageous, do not fear or be dismayed because of the king of Assyria nor because of all the horde that is with him; for the one with us is greater than the one with him. With him is only an arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people relied on the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. — 2 Chronicles 32:8 (NASB1995) Fear not! Be strong and courageous when the enemy comes against you. Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you. Our adversary, the devil, continually prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. (See 1 Peter 5:8) Today, we too have Yahweh on our side, to help us. And He has already provided victory for us through His Son, Yeshua, the Messiah, our mighty Saviour! Despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. (See Romans 8:37 NLT) Amen.

casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]. — 1 Peter 5:7 (AMP) Proverbs 12:25 (ESV) says: anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down. Why be heavily burdened with the cares of this world? Pour all your worries and concerns out to our heavenly Father in prayer. He is more than able to handle everything that concerns you. Abba Father knows exactly what we need and when we need it. “I am convinced that my God will fully satisfy every need you have, for I have seen the abundant riches of glory revealed to me through Jesus Christ!” (Philippians 4:19 TPT) Be anxious for nothing. Yahweh cares for you affectionately and He is faithful to provide all that you need. Cast your burden on the LORD [release it] and He will sustain and uphold you; 
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken (slip, fall, fail). (Psalms 55:22 AMP) The LORD will ...

The LORD says, “I was ready to respond, but no one asked for help. I was ready to be found, but no one was looking for me. I said, ‘Here I am, here I am!’ to a nation that did not call on my name. All day long I opened my arms to a rebellious people. But they follow their own evil paths and their own crooked schemes.” — Isaiah 65:1-2 (NLT) Yahweh is always ready to respond. He never sleeps, nor slumbers. His arms are open wide to welcome the lost into His family and into the glorious Kingdom of God. He draws us to Himself with lovingkindness. When you call on Him, He will answer. When you seek Him with all of your heart, He will be found by you. Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. (See 2 Corinthians 6:2) Ask for His help, today. “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who...
