Manna for Your Morning

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, 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 5:6-7 (AMP) In order for the peace of God to rule in our heads and our hearts we must humble ourselves and acknowledge that we are under the mighty hand of God. He has the whole world in His hand and nothing is too difficult for Him. His purpose will prevail. (See Proverbs 19:21 NLT) Cast all your cares, worries and concerns on Him and trust Almighty God, that His plans are good and His timing is always perfect.

“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) Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon those who fear Him [and worship Him with awe-inspired reverence and obedience], on those who hope [confidently] in His compassion and lovingkindness, to rescue their lives from death and keep them alive in famine. (Psalms 33:18-19 AMP) The one who watches over you never slumbers or sleeps. When you cast your cares and concerns on the LORD, let go of them and leave them there with Him, the One who is able to handle them. Nothing is too difficult for our great and mighty GOD. Take comfort and be at peace knowing that the LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever. (See Psalms 121:8 NLT)

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) Let us cast each and every care, concern and anxious thought on Yahweh, because He cares for us deeply. “And His mercy is upon generation after generation toward those who [stand in great awe of God and] fear Him.” (Luke 1:50 AMP) Be glad and rejoice in His unfailing love, for He has seen your troubles, and He cares about the anguish of your soul. (See Psalms 31:7 NLT)  For the LORD is our hiding place; He protects us from trouble. He surrounds us with songs of victory. Interlude (See Psalms 32:7)

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 ...

“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) Before we cast our cares, we need to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, and acknowledge that He is willing and more capable to take care of our concerns than we are. First Peter 5:6 (AMP) says to “set aside self-righteous pride.” Put your trust in El Elyon, the God Most High. He is higher than any mountain that stands before you, and greater than any challenge that comes against you. Nothing is too difficult for our great and mighty God. “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) “If you bow low in God’s awesome presence, he will eventually exalt you as you leave the timing in his hands.” (1 Peter 5:6 TPT) “For I am the LORD your God, who...

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) I appreciate that the Word says to “ cast ” our cares. When we throw something, we increase the distance between what is thrown and ourselves, versus just laying it down. And the very act of casting something requires us to let it go. Therefore, cast every care, every concern and all your anxious thoughts on God, and leave them there. Why? Because He tenderly cares for you. So, do not fret, and have no fear. He continually watches over you. Here’s what Yahweh says to you: “I know all about the marvelous destiny I have in store for you, a future planned out in detail. My intention is not to harm you but to surround you with peace and prosperity and to give you a beautiful future, glistening with hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11 TPT) Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and a...

Then we are able to cast all our cares, all our anxieties, all our worries, and all our concerns, once and for all, on Him, knowing that He cares about us, with deepest affection, and watches over us very carefully. (See 1 Peter 5:7 AMP) Amen.

And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose. — Romans 8:28 (AMP) Pile your troubles on God’s shoulders— he’ll carry your load, he’ll help you out. He’ll never let good people topple into ruin. (Psalm 55:22 MSG) Cast your burden upon the LORD because He is deeply concerned about you. He is the Source of our help and our only hope. So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God and cast 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]. (See 1 Peter 5:6-7 AMP)

…what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them? — Psalm 8:4 (NLT) Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you’re still with me. (Psalm 139:17-18 TPT) May we think about and set our affections on our great and awesome God as much as He is mindful of us. “For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, but My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, and My covenant of peace will not be shaken,” says the LORD who has compassion on you. — Isaiah 54:10 (NASB)

Pour out all your worries and stress upon him and leave them there, for he always tenderly cares for you. — 1 Peter 5:7 (TPT) Pour out all you cares, concerns and anxiety upon the LORD. Empty your mind of any anxiety-producing and stressful thoughts. Let the LORD fill you with His love, joy and peace. Since God cares for you, let Him carry all your burdens and worries. (1 Peter 5:7 VOICE) Jesus said, “And everything I’ve taught you is so that the peace which is in me will be in you and will give you great confidence as you rest in me. For in this unbelieving world you will experience trouble and sorrows, but you must be courageous, for I have conquered the world!” (John 16:33 TPT) His victory is abiding. Amen.

“ Refuse to worry about tomorrow, but deal with each challenge that comes your way, one day at a time. Tomorrow will take care of itself. ” — Matthew 6:34 (TPT) Pour out all your worries and stress upon him and leave them there, for he always tenderly cares for you. Instead of worry, worship our great and mighty God. Be well balanced and always alert, because your enemy, the devil, roams around incessantly, like a roaring lion looking for its prey to devour. Take a decisive stand against him and resist his every attack with strong, vigorous faith. For you know that your believing brothers and sisters around the world are experiencing the same kinds of troubles you endure. (1 Peter 5:7-9 TPT)

A joyful, cheerful heart brings healing to both body and soul. But the one whose heart is crushed struggles with sickness and depression. — Proverbs 17:22 (TPT) A joyful heart is a heart that has learned to rely on and trust in the Most High God, His Word, His wisdom, and His ways. Instead of carrying around the burdens of this world, cast your cares on the LORD and experience the fullness of joy we have in His Presence. Do not be worried, for the joy of the LORD is our strength! (Nehemiah 8:10) A cheerful disposition is good for your health; gloom and doom leave you bone-tired. — Proverbs 17:22 (MSG)

“Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.” — Matthew 2:1-2 (NASB) Jesus is always beckoning us to come to Him. Let us be like the wise men and come to bow down and worship King Jesus. Come to receive rest. In Matthew 11:28 (NASB), Jesus said,  “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” Come to cast your cares upon Him for He cares for you. Come to receive salvation and be made whole. Let us be like the one leper in Luke 11:15-16, who was healed, and came back glorifying God and fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Jesus.

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, 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 5:6-7 (AMP) Cast all your cares on the LORD, and leave them in His mighty hands. Trust God and the good plans He has for you. His plans are for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. So long as we are alive, we have hope...

We think you ought to know, dear brothers and sisters, about the trouble we went through in the province of Asia. We were crushed and overwhelmed beyond our ability to endure, and we thought we would never live through it. In fact, we expected to die. But as a result, we stopped relying on ourselves and learned to rely only on God, who raises the dead. — 2 Corinthians 1:8-9 (NLT) Cast your cares on the Lord. Instead of trusting in your own strength, let your troubles cause you to rely solely on God, who possesses the power to raise the dead. Keep your hope in Him and you will not be disappointed. He delivers the righteous from all their troubles.

Eternal One: Is it possible for a mother, however disappointed, however hurt, to forget her nursing child? Can she feel nothing for the baby she carried and birthed? Even if she could, I, God, will never forget you. Look here. I have made you a part of Me, written you on the palms of My hands. Your city walls are always on My mind, always My concern. — Isaiah 49:15-16 (VOICE) Continually cast your cares upon the LORD for He cares for you. He has not forgotten about you. Thou everyone else may desert you, the LORD is with you. He will never abandon you nor forsake you. Jesus is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. He is our Constant Companion. Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider  that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you’re still with me. — Psalm 139:17-18 (TPT)

“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” — Matthew 11:28-29 (NASB)  Jesus calls ALL who are weary and heavily burdened to come to Him. God shows no favoritism (Acts 10:34 NLT). He longs for us to come close to Him. The invitation to come is an open invitation to come any time and in any condition, come just as you are, just COME . If you are carrying a heavy burden today, give all your worries and cares to God because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7) When we put His yoke on, we join our hearts and lives to Him. We walk with Christ and and let Him work with us and through us. We let go of the world’s ways and learn His ways. When we are yoked to Jesus, our weary souls will find rest. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. — Psalm 23:2 (NLT)

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). — Psalm 55:22 (AMP) The Amplified Bible includes something in this verse that is very important for us to remember. Once we cast our cares on the LORD, we need to RELEASE them. Let them go and trust God to handle it. As we continually cast our cares on the LORD, let us daily commit our ways to Him. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He will do it. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgment as the noonday. — Psalm 37:5-6 (NASB)

…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) I like this verse in the Amplified Bible, because it says “ once and for all ”. That means once we cast our cares, we need to leave them in the “something for God to do” box and not pull them out again. This morning, as I was casting all my cares on the Lord, He reminded me that we are to wait on Him, instead of picking up our concerns again. Isaiah 40:31 (NASB) says, Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary. May we come out from under the circumstances, and continue to soar high, letting the power of His love be the wind beneath our wings, that carries us from glory to glory. Amen!

Then they remembered that God was their rock, and the Most High God their Redeemer. — Psalm 78:35 (NKJV) Our Redeemer is strong and mighty. Be confident that whatever difficulties come your way today, He is well able to handle them. He is higher than any mountain, and more powerful than the waves of adversity. Cast all your cares on the Lord, because He cares for you.  “...with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD, your Redeemer.” (Isaiah 54:8b NLT) “ But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last. ” (Job 19:25 NLT)   For the LORD, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb says this, “I am the LORD, Maker of all things, Who alone stretches out the heavens, Who spreads out the earth by Myself,” — Isaiah 44:24 (AMP)
