Manna for Your Morning

“ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. ” — Joshua 1:9 NASB Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, “ I am strong! ” (Joel 3:10 AMP) Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the LORD our God. (Psalm 20:7 AMP) For You will light my lamp; The LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop, by my God I can leap over a wall. (Psalm 18:28-29 NKJV) Some find their strength in their weapons and wisdom, but my miracle deliverance can never be won by men. Our boast is in the Lord our God, who makes us strong and gives us victory!  — Psalm 20:7 (AMP) 

Trust the LORD, and do good things. Live in the land, and practice being faithful. Be happy with the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.  — Psalm 37:3-4 (GW) Faithfulness is a way of life. The more we practice using our faith muscle, the stronger it becomes. Hebrews 10:38 says, “now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” Instead of drawing back, consistently take steps of faith, always moving toward what God has called you to. Sometimes only a step is needed, at other times, it's more like a leap. However, when we TRUST in the LORD, we will take take that plunge into the unknown depths of our glorious, extraordinary future, and God will bring everything into clear focus, little by little. Amen!

“For You are my lamp, O LORD; The LORD shall enlighten my darkness.  For by You I can run against a troop;  By my God I can leap over a wall.  As for God, His way is perfect;  The word of the LORD is proven;  He is a shield to all who trust in Him. ”   — 2 Samuel 22:29-31 (NKJV) Our God is a God of transformation. He turns our darkness into light. He takes the broken things in our lives and makes them whole again. God brings dead things back to life. He brings healing to the sick. With Him, the impossible, becomes possible. He is perfect in all His ways!
