TODAY’S MANNA for Wednesday, Feb. 8, 2023

Yesterday is gone!

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18-19 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S MANNA:
Yesterday is gone, finished, past, over, and forgotten, let it go! You can not change what happened yesterday. Yesterday is gone, finished, past, over, and forgotten. We cannot reclaim it or undo it. We cannot rest on the things it has brought us. When tomorrow dawns, it will be another day, a new opportunity, and the time to once again show forth our faith in Jesus as Lord. Let’s journey forward, knowing that God already inhabits the future just like He does the present and just like He did the past. He promises to provide us refreshment, and rest in Him. God makes a way where we don’t seem to see one, but if we trust in Him and rely on Him through faith and seek to do His will, He will always keep His Word to us. God gift of salvation was given to ALL mankind. Will you receive it?

MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Lord of all eternity, please help me to learn from my mistakes but not to dwell on them. Please help me not to rest on my own accomplishments in the past, but to use them to further Your work in me and through me. Please help me not quarrel with those who may have injured me yesterday, or last month. Instead, Father, lead me in Your paths and help me see Your mighty works in this coming year. Father, help me to trust in You for all things and in all ways. In Jesus name and by the power of His Holy Spirit, I ask it.
Amen

TODAY’S MANNA for Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2023

God’s Grace for Salvation!

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and Godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Titus 2:11-13 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S MANNA:
God’s Grace for Salvation has been given to ALL men (ALL of mankind)!
In a world that has no absolutes, in a world that has day by day declining moral and ethical standards. In a world where government leaders are running amok. In a world where men are with men and women are with women is supposed to be okay according to the world, but according to God’s Word it is an abomination (EVIL) unto Him. In a world where justice is a thing of the past and crime runs rampant even to the killing of police officers just for the sake of doing it, salvation by the costly grace of God beckons us to change our lifestyle in response to God’s grace. Anyone who receives the grace of God and refuses to pursue righteousness only demonstrates his or her ignorance of the Word and Grace of God or just their plain evil hardness of heart fed by the devil. And by their fruit are showing that they really haven’t received the Grace of God. Notice also that in the verse cited above, God’s Grace for Salvation has been given to ALL men (All of mankind), all the world, everybody! But not all have received it! In our day and time, to be saved means we must also pursue righteousness — not so that we may earn our salvation, since salvation is the gift of God and not of works, but so that God’s saving grace, freely given to ALL mankind, will not be in vain. Looking to Jesus who HAS (past tense) redeemed us with His precious blood and making Him the Lord of our life. Putting away old ways and habits.

MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Holy Father, I confess that I live in a confusing time. Satan is always distorting the distinction between right and wrong, good and evil, moral and immoral. He is forever trying to lie and deceive us, sometimes even using scripture that he has slightly altered. Because You have been so gracious with me, may my life today reflect the righteousness You gave me through Jesus. May the words from my mouth and the thoughts of my heart, be pleasing in Your sight, my Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Through Jesus, my redeeming sacrifice I pray.
Amen

Who’s Word dwells in you?

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.
Colossians 3:16 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S MANNA:
Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly, not the word of the world or the daily sitcom on TV, or the hard rock or heavy metal music! Not the nightly news from ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, ESPN, CBC, MTV, FOX News or the BBC, or YouTube or somebody else’s philosophy. You say, “Well it’s just a movie.” I know, I’ve been there, done that, wore the “T” shirt! But, what you must realize is that the movie or news is planting seed in your heart that is not of God and is filling you with un-Godly things! Your heart, your spirit man, receives it’s input through the eyes, the ears, and mouth by what we see, hear, and speak! So, we need to be full of His Word, the Word of God. How else will we be able to teach one another or correct, warn or caution each other about bad spiritual habits. We need the wisdom of God which can only be obtained through an intimate fellowship with Christ and His Word on a daily basis. When we are full of His Word then our praise and spiritual songs will flow from the fullness of our hearts. When we are full of His Word our faith will show it!

MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:
I am so thankful today, Lord, for all the many blessings You have poured into my life. Your love, Your grace, Your mercy, and Your forgiveness give me hope for the future. Your gift of Jesus gives me life today and promises life eternal with You. The incredible physical blessings, as well as the blessings of family and friends, are wonderful. You have also given me all spiritual blessings in heavenly places. Blessings that can only be understood through fellowship with You and Your Word. But the greatest of all blessings is the assurance that I will one day see You face- to-face and share Your glorious presence forever.
In Jesus name Lord I give You all Glory and Honor forever.
Amen

TODAY’S MANNA for Sunday Feb. 5, 2023

Freedom?

You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.
Galatians 5:13 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S MANNA:
Freedom is a wonderful gift when it is handled with responsibility, morality, and God’s wisdom. Freedom from the Law, not being under law (the Old Covenant, the Ten Commandments, the Mosaic Law) is such a sweet grace, but we must pass that sweetness, that grace on to each other through service, kindness, care, and love. We must remember the commandments given us by the Lord Jesus. “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
Notice that Jesus said fulfilling these 2 commandments (that really aren’t new) would fulfill the Law (Ten Commandments and the Mosaic Law) and the prophets. He made it so simple for us! But freedom is not to be free to indulge in sin and feed the sinful fleshy nature of man. Freedom is not to be able to sin and then run to confession on Sunday, especially to some man hiding behind a curtain in a booth. Freedom is freedom through grace to serve God and one another in love. Freedom is knowing that if you do mess up, you can come to God (Not some man) and confess and He will forgive you and cleanse you of ALL unrighteousness.

MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Holy Father, thank You for rescuing Israel from Pharaoh’s grasp, David from the sword of Goliath, and Daniel from the lion’s den. But Holy Father, thank You most of all for the triumph of Jesus over sin, sickness, disease, poverty, depression, and all the other curses of the law at Calvary and His victory over death, hell, and the grave being raised from tomb. Thank You, Holy Father that I am no longer under the “law”, but that I have a new and better covenant, bought with the Precious Blood of Jesus that day 2000 plus years ago on a hill so far away from me. Thank You that the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death! Hallelujah!
In Jesus name I praise You.
Amen

Filled With The Entire Godhead?

For in Him(Jesus) the whole fullness of Deity (the Godhead) continues to dwell in bodily form [giving complete
expression of the divine nature]. And you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead
—Father, Son and Holy Spirit —and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and
power].
Col 2:9-10 Amplified Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
All the fullness of the Godhead (the triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) dwells in Jesus Christ (as a man). I didn’t say that the Bible did. Remember He was the Word become flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:14). In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God! (John 1:1) If the Word became flesh and dwelt among us and the Word was God, then Jesus is God bodily or in the form of humanity. Now if you are in Him and He is in you then you are complete in Him. Then we have the full power of the Godhead dwelling within us, if we are born again, if we are in Christ! Why aren’t we walking in the miracles that followed Jesus? We need to learn to put a demand on that power of God that dwells within us. Quit asking God to come and do something that He has already done and given you both the power and authority to do yourself in His place! We need to bring forth all the power of the Godhead when we speak or act according to the Word of God. We need to expect the same results that Jesus got, that Paul got, that Peter and John got at the gate beautiful. We need to walk in the fullness of that Godhead!. How has it come to pass that this isn’t happening? I’ll tell you why, because of the doctrines of men (religion) that have crept stealthily into the Church over the ages from the very beginning. Because of the doctrines of men keep telling us the power has passed away. Do you know why they say this? They don’t know the Word and they don’t know how to walk in it, so they tell us it’s passed away. That’s not what it says in His Word! It’s time to get them (the wrong doctrines) out and Christ back in! Remember, All that really matters is “Jesus and His death, burial, and resurrection on high!” The same power that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you. (If you are a born again Christian). Are you filled with the entire Godhead?

MY PRAYER…
Precious Father, help me to understand the fullness of Your power that dwells within me. Give me a revelation of what it is like and what it is for. Help me to put aside all things of the natural that hinder me and to learn to expect the same results that Jesus and the early church got when they applied Your Word to sickness, disease, and evil spirits. Lord, let the power of Your Holy Spirit manifest itself fully in all that I do and say so that the world will see the Glory of the Lord manifested bodily. But always remind me (caution me) to guard my heart and to give You all the Glory and all the honor. Father I will that Your Kingdom come and Your will be done here, now, on earth as it already is in heaven. In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen

TODAY’S MANNA for Friday, Feb. 3, 2023

Walking in Integrity

For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
Psalms 94:14-15 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Walking in Integrity before God.
If we will just walk in integrity and righteousness, with an upright heart, a heart that is pure and set on the things of God, He has promised us that He will not forsake us. That He will not cast us off, but that we shall be partakers of an inheritance and be the children of God. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like an awesome promise to me and I want to partake of it. So how do I walk in integrity before God? Obey His Word, always! Obey His delegated authority where ever it is and through whom ever He delegates it, for ALL authority is from God. When needed I come to Him and ask for forgiveness for transgressions, and I ask from my heart not as lip service and then I repent (make the changes necessary), He forgives me and cleanses me of all unrighteousness.

MY PRAYER…
Father God, help us to understand Your ways. Help us to understand that Your ways are not our ways. Lord, help us walk in Your ways and to set ourselves on the things that You would have us to do. Lord, strengthen us and help us to keep a pure heart through the working of Your Holy Spirit within us. Lord, help me to be as Abraham was when You accounted it unto him for righteousness. In Jesus name I pray.
Amen

TODAY’S MANNA for Thursday, Feb. 2, 2023

An Inheritance Forever!

The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Psalms 37:18-19 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Do You Have An Inheritance Forever?
The Lord knows the days and the ways of the upright or those who walk in integrity before Him. The Lord shall give those who walk in integrity an inheritance for ever. I didn’t say that, God did! What kind of an inheritance do you think God can give His Children? We shall never be ashamed nor shall we ever lack for anything, even during a famine. That famine isn’t just a lack of food, that is a lack of anything you would need to survive! If, we will seek Him and walk in integrity before Him, He will preserve and keep us always.” I didn’t say that, God did in His Word, His Bible (His Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth!
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:33

MY PRAYER…
Holy Father, I thank You and praise You for who You are. I thank You Lord that You are a loving Father, whose only desire is to preserve and keep those who will walk upright before You. Just as You did for the father of our Faith Abraham when You made Your covenant with Him. He walked upright before You and You counted it unto him for righteousness. Father, I thank You that I can walk upright before You and that I can be the righteousness of God through the blood of Jesus. I thank You Lord that by my faith in Jesus Christ, I am Your child and have an inheritance in the Kingdom. Father, I resist the devil, evil and all that comes from the devil, for You have given me Your promises and they keep me. In the precious name of Your Son, Jesus, I give You all praise and all glory forever.
Amen

TODAY’S MANNA for Wednesday Feb. 1, 2023

Walk With Integrity

The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.
Proverbs 11:3 New King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Are You Walking With Integrity Before God?
Remember God told Abram (Abraham), “…I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.” (Gen 17:1) God was telling Abram to be upright or in today’s language to be a man of “integrity”. God wanted to bless Abram beyond what he could comprehend, but Abram had to be a man of integrity in order for God to be able to do so. A man who walks in perverseness or transgressions walks in the curse and will be destroyed. Not because that’s what God wants, but because it opens the door for Satan, the destroyer to come in. I believe that is what’s missing from much of our society today…integrity of person, both with each other and especially before God. The world today is in such moral degradation that integrity has been cast aside long ago. That lack of integrity is causing even greater moral degradation of the human race we see today. And it is bringing about it’s own destruction by opening the door for Satan and his demons to come in and do their evil deeds.

MY PRAYER…
Most Holy Father, I give you praise and glory in all things. Lord I ask you to help me, so I may know how to be a man of integrity. Lord I ask you to empower me through Your Holy Spirit to be able to walk in integrity. Father, help me to understand Your ways and Your will. Help me to walk as Jesus did when He walked on the earth among men. In the name of Your Holy Child, Jesus, I ask and I pray this.
Amen
