Fresh Manna by Prophetess Smith

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. -John 15:1-2  We are not what we will be.  In the fullness of time, God will reveal to you  who you are in Him. Every tragedy…every unfortunate happening…is nothing more than the gentle pressure of God...

Because Jesus rose, you can arise!! God did not create you just so you could exist.   There is a divine purpose for your existence.  Jesus came that you might “live”.   He rose that you might enjoy life abundantly.  Without Jesus, you are just existing.   You were created to enjoy life to its’ fullest and to have it in abundance.    Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the grou...

The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.    Psalm 18:10

God wants His glory to fill the earth. We are God's workmanship, created in His image and for His glory.  We have been bought with a price; therefore, we are no longer our own.  The things that we do and the words that we speak, ought to glory God. For this cause, we were and are created.  See Isaiah 43:7

Navigating the complexities of life can be challenging and frustrating without the wisdom of God. Knowing the will of God for your life, and doing God’s will, is the key to opening the door to your destiny.   Great things await those who put their trust in the LORD.  It is not by our strength that we prevail; but it is through and by God that we get the victory.

If Black lives really matter, then why do you keep killing your sisters and brothers? If you love me, then why do you keep hurting me? Love doesn't kill.

The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.        -Proverbs 18:10      Over 25 years ago, the Lord said to me, “You don’t even know My Name.” I was stunned.  I had believed I did know His Name.  I had studied my Bible.  I attended Seminary.  What did God mean by saying I didn’t “even” know His Name? He did not just say, “I didn’t know His Name.” He inserted...

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.  - Matthew 5:14 -15 Our lights are not shown so that the world might see us, but we show forth our light that the world might see God.  We are the channel through which the righteousness of Go...

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.  -Matthew 9:17 Jesus answered him, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the k...

"For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:"  -James 1:23 We are God's ambassadors.  When we enter a room; even before we speak, the Presence of God should be felt.  You will encounter great hatred or much love. And, when you speak, your conversation should show forth the kindness and love of Jesus. Again, you wil...

 “ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me…". -  John 10:27 We can only enjoy the abundant life the Bible promises when we follow Jesus, but if we don't know His Voice, then how can we follow Him? Listen to "Knowing the Shepherd's Voice" and learn how to live life victoriously every day.

“Verily, Verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.  - John 12:24  The presence of God is seen and experienced only when we come to the end of self.  Your peace, your prosperity, and your strength are predicated upon you wholly following Jesus.

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:  And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?  John 11:25-26 In every Believer's life (and non-Believers') something dies.  But death is not the end.  Death is only the beginning.  Unless we die, we will never experience God's g...

"For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of the which is to come."  1 Timothy 4:8 While bodily exercise is good and beneficial, it does have its' limits, but training in holy living provides benefits without limitations. Our relationship with God will not just bless us on this side of heaven, but...

It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.  - Psalm 119:71     Trouble gets our attention.

“And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.”    - Jeremiah 18:4  Brokenness is God’s Requirement for our uttermost usefulness. ·      God will not use us until we have been broken. ·      The sacrifices of God are a broken and repentant spirit.  

“Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.”   -  Micah 7:8  Calamity visits everyone at one time or another.  Do not faint because of the trouble that has come your way. No one is immune from adversity.  Yet sometimes our struggles are the result of the bad choices we made.  Nevertheless, if we turn back to God, He...

“ Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and His praise in the congregation of saints .”  Psalm 149:1 God dwells in the praises of His people.  And because He dwells there, praise becomes a weapon of defense in the mouth of God’s faithful. Like a two-edged sword, praise has the power to inflict punishment upon the heads of our enemies. The strength of praise can bind kings with chains...

It is written: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Havi...

Have you not noticed that it is the loud and boisterous person that gets the attention of the majority.  But it is the meek and humble that God takes notice of. Don't despise the days of small beginnings.       God is doing something. “Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted .”  -Matthew 23:12

God desires that you prosper even as your soul prospers. (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:  Whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)       - Philippians 3:18-19 Our accomplishments have no value if God is absent from our lives.    Lik...

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.  -Psalm 138:7-8 Life changing moments are unavoidable.  They can be exceedingly challenging to endure.  Int...

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.  -Isaiah 43:2 Today, you might not feel the closeness of God’s presence, nor hear His voice, but I want you to know, God sees, and He hears.   You did not take a breath today that God...

Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.  -Psalm 37:1 God doesn't want you getting upset and agitated by what your enemy does. One day, you will look for them and they will be gone. The recipe for living in peace in the midst of an unloving world is trusting God and doing what is good.  Love you enemies and pray for those who hate you and...

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,  - Hebrews 12:1 The race is not give to the swift, nor to the strong, but to those who endures until the end. The joy in running this Christian race is not predicated on what we have b...
