Daily Manna

You know with all your heart and soul that not one of all the good promises the Lord your God gave you has failed. Every promise has been fulfilled; not one has failed. Joshua 23:14

Has God made a promise to you? Sure He has. Many. His Holy Word is full of promises for us to seek, find, take and lay hold of as our own.

Stand on God's Word, not your worry ... and don't let what He said be canceled out by what you see. We can’t go by our circumstances nor let them try to rob us of our faith in what He’s spoken to us. It's NEVER too late for God to come through for you.

For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is My word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:8-11

The Word doesn’t say that we have to have everything figured out down to the last little bitty minute detail, we are to trust and have faith that His ways are better and that He knows what He’s doing. He doesn’t need our help. Us trying to struggle via self-effort and reasoning when He’s going to do it, how He’s going to do it, or if He’s going to do it isn’t going to get us anywhere. We don't have to let those thoughts of doubt just run around in our heads, we can speak out a promise God's given us concerning our situation in faith ... believing.

Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. Proverbs 3:5

You may not know how, you may not know when, but He'll do it AGAIN. It may be the midnight hour when He comes through, but HONEY, HE’s GONNA come through!

Daily manna = we get what we need on the day that we NEED it. A daily provision. Whether it be food, money, peace, healing, wisdom, grace, protection, etc. it comes RIGHT WHEN WE NEED IT, for God is an on time God.

Father, thank You for the promises of Yours that we have to stand on. Thank You that You have not, nor ever will, break a single promise to us. Give us grace to wait for Your perfect timing. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Let the Lord's people show Him reverence,

for those who honor Him will have all they

 need. Those who trust in the Lord will never

lack any good thing.

Psalm 34:9,10

Fear God. That's a biblical concept that's often misunderstood. It doesn't mean that we should be afraid of God. It doesn't mean that we shouldn't develop a personal relationship with the Lord. But it does mean that we should respect Him, reverence Him, and be infinitely more concerned with fulfilling the Law of God than just doing whatever we want to do or trying to please others.

Happy are those who respect the Lord and obey Him. You will enjoy what you work for, and you will be blessed with good things. Psalm 128:1,2

If we live with a reverence and respect for the Lord, the biblical fear of the Lord, then we don't have to be afraid of anything. Sometimes, we just need to be quiet and listen. It's usually in the stillness that the Holy Spirit speaks words of comfort and direction. Fear the Lord and don't be afraid of anything.

The Bible says, "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, 'My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!'" (Psalm 91:1-3,7).

Somehow being in the Lord's presence just makes everything okay. When you're in the presence of the Lord, you have NOTHING to fear. The power of the presence of God will take away all despair and doubt as you fellowship with Him.

You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand. Psalm 16:11

It doesn't matter if you're going through the flood or the fire, because you know God is with you. As long as you feel His arms around you, everything's all right.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. Psalms 23:4

Respect your Father.

Father, help us to respect and revere You. Help us to not be afraid. Bless our lives with all that we need. In Jesus' name, amen.
