God Will Finish What He Started In You!

Manna For Today: Thursday, April 26, 2018

Philippians 1:6 – Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

This scripture reminds  us that the “good work” being done in our lives was started by God, will be continued by God and will be finished by Him. It is God all the way, from beginning to end; growing, developing and enabling us.

Quiet yourself today and ask God to show the work going on in you now and how you can partner with Him in it.

When you discover God’s work and your opportunity for partnership, share it with someone.

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

Hear God Calling You!

Manna For Today: Wednesday, April 25, 2018

Joshua 1:9 – This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.

What a great benefit to live life in the assurance of God’s presence, power and provision!

Today, hear God calling you once again (He never gets tired) to a place of courage and strength; be strong and have courage. You can do it because He said you can!

Command fear and discouragement to leave and invite the peace of God in.

Today, know that wherever you go your awesome God is with you!

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

You Will Win!

Manna For Today: Tuesday, April 24, 2018

Proverbs 3:5, 9 – Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. 9 Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce.

You simply will not do what verse 9 says if you neglect to manage the relationship between your trust of God and dependence on you. Self will always war with faith; the only way self wins is for you to choose your logic over God’s leading.

Practice today being led by God as opposed to being led by your logic. Know that “you can win.” It will require you to decrease so that He can increase. If you are challenged in hearing God it may be the result of your listening to other entities.

God will not compete with the noise of our lives. He is waiting patiently for you to attend to Him. You will always move in the direction of your most dominant thought; make that God!

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

You Can Trust Our God!

Manna For Today: Monday, April 23, 2018

Psalm 3:5 – I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustained me.

Lack of trust is a major gap in our devotion to and relationship with God. Begin today by writing down the areas in your life you struggle to give God completely. You wont surprise, embarrass or anger Him; He appreciates our honesty and can’t help us until we are.

Go to Him today asking for His intervention to close the gap and when He has done that, you simply praise and thank Him for his loving kindness. Share your discoveries with someone who will be blessed by them.

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

Be Encouraged Today!

Manna For Today: Sunday, April 22, 2018

Deuteronomy 31:6 – Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.

The goodness of God cannot be measured, His mercy and grace have no boundary.

He encourages us to become what He enables us to be; ‘strong and courageous.’

He gives us a sense of freedom and well-being no matter who they are who threaten us; ‘do not be afraid or terrified because of them.’

He’s there with us when we need Him; ‘for the Lord your God goes with you.’

He doubles down on His commitment to us; ‘He will never leave you nor forsake you.’

How wonderful is our God!

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

Jesus Is The Answer!

Manna For Today: Saturday, April 21, 2018

I Chronicles 16:11 – Go to the LORD for help, and worship Him continually.

There’s no need to say more; you have the answer to whatever you’re facing. Go to your Heavenly Father right now for help and stay in His presence in worship until you know He really is everything you need.

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!

My New Identity In Christ!

Manna For Today: Friday, April 20, 2018

II Corinthians 5:17 – “When someone becomes a Christian, he becomes a brand new person inside. He’s not the same anymore. A new life has begun!”

Identity is at the crux of many issues we face today. Protecting our identity has become a cottage industry with varied products designed to aid us in accomplishing the goal of identity protection.

The identity most important to our outcome daily is the one left, all too often, unprotected; it’s what and who we think we are at any given point of the day. The truth is, whatever we believe about ourselves is true whether it’s really true or not.

So how do we manage our personal identity daily? We believe what God’s Word says about us and walk in that reality daily.

• Realize our old life is gone.

Galatians 2:20 – My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

• Realize our new life has begun.

Romans 8:1-3 – So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. 2 And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death. 3 The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature. So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins.

My friend, when the old person with all its corruption and deceitful desires surfaces, put it off by putting on more of Christ through God’s Word.

Commit to memory II Corinthians 5:17.

Remember, you are loved!

Peace and blessings!
