Manna for Your Morning

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.

But this thing I did command them: ‘Listen to and obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people; and you will walk in all the way which I command you, so that it may be well with you.’ — Jeremiah 7:23 (AMP) The plans and thoughts God has toward us are good. He wants us to prosper in every area of our lives, to be healed, whole, growing and fruitful. First Timothy 6:17 (NKJV) tells us not to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. For Yahweh God is a sun and shield; Yahweh gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly. (Psalms 84:11 LSB) However, Jeremiah 5:28 says, our sins have withheld good from us. “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.” (...

Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night.” — Revelation 12:10 (NASB1995) Stay on the alert, we are engaged in a war. The devil declared war with those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. (See Revelation 12:17) He accuses us before our God day and night, but we have a Mediator. For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all. (See 1 Timothy 2:5-6) We shall overcome by the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of our testimony, and we must not love our lives even when faced with death. (See Revelation 12:11)

Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning, for I am trusting you. Show me where to walk, for I give myself to you. — Psalm 143:8 (NLT) The LORD is faithful to show us the way of life. (See Psalm 16:11) May we have eyes that see, ears that hear, and hearts that understand His ways. Let us exercise wisdom and follow Him each and every day. Psalm 23:2-3 says, He makes us lie down in green pastures and leads us beside still waters. He restores our souls and leads us in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death. (Proverbs 12:28 NASB1995)  Teach me to do Your will [so that I may please You], for You are my God; Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground. — Psalm 143:10 (AMP)

For you have made the LORD, my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place. — Psalm 91:9 (NASB) Instead of Sunday visitations, make the Most High God your dwelling place. Abide in Him at all times. Psalm 90:1 (AMP) says, Lord, You have been our dwelling place [our refuge, our sanctuary, our stability] in all generations. Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God. (Psalm 90:2 NLT) “The eternal God is your refuge and dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He drove out the enemy from before you...” (Deuteronomy 33:12 AMP) How lovely are Your dwelling places, O LORD of hosts! My soul longed and even yearned for the courts of the LORD; My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God. — Psalm 84:1-2 (NASB)
