Manna for Your Morning

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) The God Most High, is a good, good Father Who continually watches over His people. He cares for us and provides all of our needs. May we worship Him and Him alone. He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, and He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; Many will see and fear and will trust in the LORD. (Psalm 40:2-3 NASB1995) Yeshua is our good Shepherd, Who gave His life for us. (See John 10:11) In John 10:14 (NASB1995), Jesus said: “… I know My own and My own know Me, ” Yeshua calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. The sheep follow Him because they know His voice. (See John 10:3-4) A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do ...

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) Do not be deceived and put your confidence in human ability, nor strength. Rely on God. His wisdom and guidance. His healing and strength. Rely on His salvation. His lovingkindness and compassion. Be confident in His goodness and faithfulness. Trust in His mercy and grace. In 2 Corinthians 1:10 (NLT) the Apostle Paul says: God did rescue us from mortal danger, and he will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us. Keep your trust and confidence in YAHWEH. He will rescue you again and draw you near to Him. 

“ And I will give them one heart [a new heart], and put a new spirit within them. I will take from them the heart of stone, and will give them a heart of flesh [that is responsive to My touch], ” — Ezekiel 11:19 (AMP) May our hearts always be responsive to the touch of the LORD, just as clay in the hands of a potter. “…learn to know the God of your ancestors intimately. Worship and serve him with your whole heart and a willing mind. For the LORD sees every heart and knows every plan and thought. If you seek him, you will find him...” (See 1 Chronicles 28:9 NLT) Do not let self-righteousness or pride cause you to harden your heart. Proverbs 11:20 (NKJV) says: Those who are of a perverse heart are an abomination to the LORD. Anything contrary to the Word of God (truth) is perverse. Humble yourself and set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD our God. The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, the LORD will not endure. (See Psalm 101:4 NKJV) If your heart has gone astray from ...

And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. — Hebrews 11:6 (NASB1995) Let us be among the faithful, who continue to believe, no matter what. The enemy of our souls wants us to doubt God. But Jesus said: “… believe in God, believe also in Me. ” (See John 14:1) In John 6:29 (AMP), Jesus answered, “This is the work of God: that you believe [adhere to, trust in, rely on, and have faith] in the One whom He has sent.” (John 6:29 AMP) 
“For in just a little while, the Coming One will come and not delay. And my righteous ones will live by faith. But I will take no pleasure in anyone who turns away.” But we are not like those who turn away from God to their own destruction. We are the faithful ones, whose souls will be saved. (Hebrews 10:37-39 NLT) So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so that yo...

“ You will keep in perfect and constant peace the one whose mind is steadfast [that is, committed and focused on You—in both inclination and character], because he trusts and takes refuge in You [with hope and confident expectation]. ” — Isaiah 26:3 (AMP) When you dwell on the mountains before you, they seem to grow bigger. When your mind is committed to and focused on the LORD, He will keep you in perfect peace. The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. (Psalm 97:5 NKJV) Set your mind on the Prince of Peace. Let the peace of God rule in your heart. He has given us His perfect peace. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. Let His perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge. (See John 14:27 AMP) Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, whi...

Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: — Lamentations 3:21 (NLT) No matter how difficult or dismal the previous day, we can dare to hope because every morning His mercies begin afresh. The faithful love of the LORD never runs out. He provides all we need to persist in spite of the problems and obstacles that come before us. So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the LORD!

Seek the LORD while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near. — Isaiah 55:6 (NASB1995) There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. (Proverbs 14:12 NASB1995) Let the wicked change their ways and banish the very thought of doing wrong. Let them turn to the LORD that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously. (Isaiah 55:7 NLT) Return to the LORD, who is merciful and full of compassion. (See Psalm 86:15 NKJV) He guards the paths of the just and protects those who are faithful to him. Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair, and you will find the right way to go. (Proverbs 2:8-9 NLT) “For you will go out with joy and be led forth with peace;” (Isaiah 55:12a NASB1995)  The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. — Psalm 145:18 (NASB1995)
