Morning Manna

Jesus said; "In as much as you've done it unto the least of these, you've done it unto me." Are you grateful for Jesus love for you.... His death on the cross for your sins... His preparation of a place for you in heaven? Focus today on serving the least of these in you community and in so doing, you'll be a blessing to Him.

I love the words of the Apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 2:1–2: “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” Make that your mission today!

A refuge is defined as a shelter or protection from danger or distress,a place that provides shelter or protection. Deut. 33:27 says; God is our refuge and His everlasting arms are under you. Enjoy today me sharing Charles Spurgeon's devotion on this verse and rest in His refuge and arms today.

How do you see yourself today? More important, how does God see you today. Romans 5:1 says this, Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Justified... Just-As-If-I'd-Never-Sinned. Live in the truth and grace today.

Have you ever wrestled with God? I know I have but in today's episode we're going to talk about Jacob and his wrestle with God. The result of that wrestle was a blessing. Be encouraged today even in those times of struggle. One of my favorite quotes from one of my Bible college professors, Dr. Mark Cambron, was "the testing before the blessing."

Moses gave some encouraging words to Joshua who was to be his successor; "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Yes there are things today that can provoke fear and discouragement, but God is with us and says; "Do not."

We are so very blessed by our God. Enjoy a reading today of The Beatitudes. Soak them in and then give them out. Love you all.

Jesus said; "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." Abundant life is our legacy. Trust Him today for that precious gift.

Nehemiah 8:10 says, "The Joy of the Lord is my strength." May His joy overflow you in your life no matter what the circumstances you're facing.

Romans 15:2 says;  "Let every one of us please his neighbor for his good to edification." How can you be a blessing to your neighbors today. Make that your mission today.

In Matthew 25:33 Jesus said; ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’ I dedicate this episode to a dear friend Monte, who entered yesterday into the joy of His Lord. Thank God for faithful friends.

What's your playlist? What's in it? In today's episode I share some thoughts from Colossians 3:16 - Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

So today as the beloved... let us be lovers of others.

Whatever you and I do today... and I mean WHATEVER... may it bring glory to the God who loved and saved us! I pray that all day today, the word whatever will occupy your mind as you live and work. Be blessed!

Galatians 6:9 says; "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." Are you feeling tired... exhausted... depleted... I hope today's Morning Manna will encourage you to finish strong.

In today's episode I share the lyrics of two great songs that have always brought me peace in troubled times. I hope they do the same for you today and especially all who are dealing with Hurricane Ian. Be blessed!

Jesus said; "... lift up your eyes and look unto the harvest." May I encourage us all to have eyes and a heart for sharing the good news of the gospel today. Look for those opportunities to plant seed, cultivate what's already been planted, and ready to harvest when ready.

A dear friend posted this on Facebook - “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others” Philippians 2:4 So thankful for a church that reached out to see if I needed hurricane prep help. Look for opportunities today to be a blessing to others. Pray for those in the path of Hurricane Ian.

Let's talk today about our amazing Sheperd... Jesus. He is a good and faithful sheperd who know just what we need today. Trust Him!

John 3:36 says; "He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." That's a big but for sure... but the wrath of God abides on Him. Do you believe in Jesus? Have you trusted Him and Him alone for your salvation? Let's talk about it on today's Morning Manna.

Four times in the book of Isaiah 9 and 10 you will see this phrase... "For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still." How powerful is God's mercy to us! Let's talk about it on today's Morning Manna.

This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. That's my challenge to you and myself today. Be encouraged by a special prayer I share with you in today's episode.

In today's Morning Manna I share with you two verses that pray each morning before my feet hit the floor. May God help us to guard our mouths that we today may minister grace to the hearers.
