Manna for Your Morning

“Yahweh will give strength to His people; Yahweh will bless His people with peace.” — Psalms 29:11 (LSB) Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not become weary or tired. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless. Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31 LSB/NLT) Find new strength today. Yahweh will keep the peace, a perfect peace, for all who trust in Him, for those who dedicate their hearts and minds to Him. Trust in the LORD forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength. (See Isaiah 26:3 VOICE/NKJV)

“Just as the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, both now and forever.” — Psalms 125:2 (NLT) In 2 Kings 6:15,17-18 (NLT), Elisha’s servant could only see the enemy troops surrounding the city, but Elisha prayed: “O LORD, open his eyes and let him see!” The LORD opened the young man’s eyes, and when he looked up, he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire.  You may feel that the enemy has you surrounded, but remember the words of Elisha in 2 Kings 6:16, “Don’t be afraid!” “For there are more on our side than on theirs!” May Yahweh open your eyes to see the situation with eyes of faith. GOD stands with you and gives you strength. He has already given us the victory. Praise the LORD!

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people from this time forth and forever. — Psalm 125:2 (NASB) People may desert you, but the Lord will stand with you and give you strength. In His Presence, there is wonder-working power. We are empowered to complete the assignment He has given to each one of us. In His Presence, we have peace, protection and fullness of joy. 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) Faithfully stand with the Lord, as He stands with you.

It is good to give thanks to the LORD and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; to declare Your lovingkindness in the morning and Your faithfulness by night, — Psalm 92:1-2 (NASB) Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the LORD our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. If only you would listen to his voice today! (Psalm 95:6-7 NLT) For the LORD will not abandon His people, nor will He forsake His inheritance. (Psalm 90:14 NASB) O satisfy us in the morning with Your lovingkindness, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days. (Psalm 90:14 NASB) Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom. (Psalm 90:12 (NLT)

Nevertheless, keep watching! I will restore this city and heal the wounds of My people. I will lavish them with peace and stability. — Jeremiah 33:6 (VOICE) “But now take another look. I’m going to give this city a thorough renovation, working a true healing inside and out. I’m going to show them life whole, life brimming with blessings. I’ll restore everything that was lost to Judah and Jerusalem. I’ll build everything back as good as new. I’ll scrub them clean from the dirt they’ve done against me. I’ll forgive everything they’ve done wrong, forgive all their rebellions. (Jeremiah 33:6-8 MSG) Our heavenly Father is a God of restoration and renewal. He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

Now may the Lord of peace Himself grant you His peace at all times and in every way [that peace and spiritual well-being that comes to those who walk with Him, regardless of life’s circumstances]. The Lord be with you all. — 2 Thessalonians 3:16 (AMP) Regardless of how current circumstances may appear, continue to walk with God and keep your trust in Him. He is the way maker.

It is through him that we live and function and have our identity; just as your own poets have said, ‘Our lineage comes from him.’ — Acts 17:28 (TPT) We find our true identity in Christ, as we acknowledge that the LORD is God! He made us (in His image), and we are his. We are his people, the sheep of his pasture. (Psalm 100:3) Let us follow Jesus, the Good Shepherd. Through Jesus, therefore, let us at all times offer up to God a sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of lips that thankfully acknowledge and confess and glorify His name. (Hebrews 13:15)

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, — Ephesians 1:3 (NASB) Our heavenly Father is continually pouring out His goodness and favor upon His people. In order to have a cup that is overflowing we must be vessels that are open to receive His Presence, His blessings, and His favor. If our cup (our heart) is full of pride, unforgiveness, etc. than we have no room to be filled with His Holy Spirit and all the blessings contained in His Presence. Fix your hope on God, the One who richly provides everything for our enjoyment. (1 Timothy 6:17b VOICE) Thirst for more of Him. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. — Psalm 23:5-6 (NASB)

The LORD sat as King at the flood; Yes, the LORD sits as King forever. The LORD will give [unyielding and impenetrable] strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace. — Psalm 29:10-11 (AMP) Because our mighty God sits on the throne, we have no need to fear. It is God who arms us with strength and keeps our way secure. (2 Samuel 22:33) From his throne he observes all who live on the earth. (Psalm 33:14 NLT) And He hears the cry of every heart, and gives us His peace and strength. I cried out to you in my distress, the delivering God, and from your temple-throne you heard my troubled cry. My sobs came right into your heart and you turned your face to rescue me.  — Psalm 18:6 (TPT)

“ 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) Our God is Immanuel. He is alive and He lives among His people. He is a mighty Savior. Jesus saves us from the penalty of our sins. The LORD is a good Father, Who delights over His children with gladness. His perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18). Be strong, and courageous, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). “I, even I, am the LORD, and there is no savior besides Me.” — Isaiah 43:11 (NASB)

So when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and *said to them, “Peace be with you.” — John 20:19 (NASB) The LORD gives his people strength; the LORD blesses his people with peace. (Psalm 29:11 CSB) …let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. (Colossians 3:15 NLT) The Amplified Bible says peace is the inner calm of one who walks daily with Him. Let us walk through each day with Him. Stay aware of His Presence, with you, and you will abide in His peace. In His Presence, we are empowered to overcome the troubles and trials of this world. “ Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled or fearful. ” — John 14:27 (CSB)

The LORD is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me. — Psalm 23:1-4 (NLT) Sheep are helpless and not very smart, but they are kept safe as long as they stay close to the shepherd. Instead of trying to figure everything out on our own, we can just keep following Jesus, our Good Shepherd and we shall not want. Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. (Psalm 100:3 NKJV) Not only has God created us—a gracious act of love in and of itself—but He has made us His own people. He has chosen us and loved us. (from the VOICE Bible) In John 10:11 Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His lif...

Then he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel saying, ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the LORD of hosts. — Zechariah 4:6 (NASB) As it was in the days of Zerubbabel , so it is today. His Spirit is still at work in and through His people. We fulfill the purpose and plan God has for us, by His Spirit. It is not in our own power or might. As we rely on and draw our strength from the Spirit of God who dwells within us, the mountains before us will become molehills, and the stormy waves will become calm. God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. (Ephesians 3:20 MSG) Be filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18), and be led by His Spirit, in all that you do. “ Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble at them, for the LORD your God is the one who goes with you. He will not...

Jacob’s well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime. Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.” — John 4:6-7 (NLT) In Jeremiah 2:13, the LORD says: “ 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! ” Which wells do you draw from as your source? The well of your career or business? Do you go to the well of people-pleasing, trying to get your fill on the approval of others? Do you rely on the well of money or the well of sensual pleasures? These wells will never satisfy our thirst. Jesus is the only source that can satisfy. Just like the woman at the well, He knows everything you ever did and He still loves you. In John 4:10 (NLT), Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you ...

Praise the LORD! Let all that I am praise the LORD. I will praise the LORD as long as I live. I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath. — Psalm 146:1-2 (NLT) May we continually praise and give thanks to the LORD. He inhabits the praises of His people. When we whine and complain, it kills our joy and peace. When our mouths continually praise and give thanks to God, even in the midst of adverse circumstances, we strengthen our trust and reliance on God. We are able to keep our peace and joy, knowing that our mighty God is working everything together for good. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. — 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NLT) 

“Let us praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to help his people and has given them freedom. He has given us a powerful Savior from the family of God’s servant David. — Luke 1:68-69 (NCV) Praise God that He helps His people! Psalm 54:4 (NLT) says, God is my helper. The Lord keeps me alive! Psalm 27:9 says, He has always been my helper. Not only does our help come from the Lord, but He has given us a powerful Savior. Jesus, our mighty Savior has gained the victory for us and set us free. No matter what fire storms you have gone through, the Lord helped you to rise up out of the ashes and live a new day, full of hope and promise.  So we can say with confidence, “The LORD is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6 NLT)

“ A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel. ” — Luke 2:32 (NKJV) Simeon said Jesus is a light to bring revelation. He is the one light we have in these dark times. May we, as God’s special people, a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation (1 Peter 2:9), let His light brightly shine through us, that those in the darkness may see the Light and come. We couldn’t be more sure of what we saw and heard—God’s glory, God’s voice. The prophetic Word was confirmed to us. You’ll do well to keep focusing on it. It’s the one light you have in a dark time as you wait for daybreak and the rising of the Morning Star in your hearts. (2 Peter 1:19 MSG)

And He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” — Exodus 33:14 (NKJV) Not only does the Presence of God go with us, like He did with Moses, we have the presence of His Holy Spirit dwelling within us. He gives us all we need to accomplish His will on the earth.  The LORD will give strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace.  (Psalm 29:11 NKJV) Let the peace we have in His Presence, override the chaos of this world. Rest in the fullness of joy that we have in His Presence.

The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying: “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.” — Jeremiah 31:3 (NKJV) “In Your lovingkindness You have led the people whom You have redeemed;” — Exodus 15:13a (NASB) Our heavenly Father is not a harsh taskmaster. Everything He instructs us to do, or not to do is motivated by love. God loves His people with an everlasting love. With love He draws us out of dark places and leads us into His marvelous light. The flow of His compassion and kindness toward us never stops. There is a constant call for us to “COME” and “FOLLOW” Him. As we answer this call, we experience fullness of joy and know His unfailing love.

What marvelous love the Father has extended to us! Just look at it—we’re called children of God! That’s who we really are. But that’s also why the world doesn’t recognize us or take us seriously, because it has no idea who he is or what he’s up to. — 1 John 3:1 (MSG) What marvelous love the Father has lavished on us that we have the honor and privilege to be called and counted as children of God! That’s who really are. You are the apple of His eye. (Psalm 17:8) His thoughts about you outnumber the grains of sand. (Psalm 139:17-18) Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. (Luke 12:7) Don’t ever think, God is out to get you. The eye of God constantly watches over His people. He takes care of us on every side. Like the heart of any good parent, our heavenly Father wants only the best for us. He wants us to live peaceful and prosperous lives. The meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity . (Psalm 37:11) Always remember, He loves you, no matter what and H...
