Manna for Your Morning

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6 (NASB) It doesn’t matter what you need, Jesus is the One you need to call. When you want someone to talk to, call on Jesus, the Wonderful Counselor. Before you phone a friend, talk to Him. He is your constant Companion and guide. When trouble strikes, He is our Mighty God. Jesus is bigger and greater than anything that stands before us. No matter what kind of relationship we have with our earthly parents, we can call on Jesus, the everlasting Father. Just as a loving father takes care of his children, Jesus is always with us. He watches over us and provides for our every need. We can also call on Jesus, the Prince of Peace. He gives us a peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). In the middle of the storm, we can abide in the perfect peace that He gives, k...

He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this to remember me.” — Luke 22:19 (NLT) Jesus sacrificed His body for us. He was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed (Isaiah 53:5 NLT). The Amplified Bible says, the punishment [required] for our well-being fell on Him… (Isaiah 53:5b). Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit] (2 Corinthians 5:17 AMP). Jesus opened the door for us to live healthy and whole. May we allow His Spirit to work in us and bring about a complete healing (physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually), that we may be whole and enjoy the abundant life our Savior came to give us!

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. — James 1:5-6 (NIV) With all the decisions and choices we make on any given day, we all need wisdom. Remember to ask our heavenly Father, who knows all and sees all, for the wisdom to make the right choices. “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.!” (Luke 11:9-10 NIV). May you confidently walk in the wisdom of God and not fall in the trap of the enemy.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.  — James 1:17 (NIV) Our lives are full of good and perfect gifts from our heavenly Father. The very breath of life in you at this moment, is a gift of God. Let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God for all the wonderful things He has so graciously given to us.

For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 (NKJ) God loved us so much that He gave his one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to save the world. A good gift is only helpful to the recipient once it is received. Jesus is the most perfect gift that has ever been given. He is called Wonderful. Those who receive Him can call on His name. When situations seem impossible, call on the Mighty God, with whom all things are possible. If you need someone to talk to, He is the Counselor, who has understanding, compassion and wisdom. Your life in turmoil? Turn to the Prince of Peace. He is there for YOU.
