OUR GOD: Morning Manna October 31

O God, only by Your power can we push back our enemies; only in Your name can we trample our foes. I do not trust in my bow; I do not count on my sword to save me. You are the One who gives us victory over our enemies. Psalms 44:5-7 NLT

LORD, be merciful to us, for we have waited for You. Be our strong arm each day and our salvation in times of trouble. The enemy runs at the sound of Your voice. When You stand up, the nations flee!  Isaiah 33:2-3 NLT

The LORD is my strength and my song; He has given me victory. This is my God, and I will praise Him—my father's God, and I will exalt Him! The LORD is a warrior; Yahweh is His name!  Exodus 15:2-3 NLT

A CHANGED LIFE: Morning Manna October 30

Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.  Romans 12:2 NLT

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.  2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus (Yashua):  Philippians 2:5 KJV

Our thoughts, actions and priorities change as we put on the mind of Christ.

THE LIGHT: Morning Manna October 29

Jesus (Yashua) spoke to the people once more and said, "I am the light of the world. If you follow Me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life."  John 8:12 NLT

When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you.  John 14:20 NLT

"You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket.  Matthew 5:14 NLT

We are lights.  We are to bring light (hope) to a world full of darkness (despair).  We are to share the Light of the World (Yashua) that shines in us.

Don't grow dim.

OUR POSITION IN CHRIST: Morning Manna October 28

Paul's prayer: I ask God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. 

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope He has given to those He has called.

I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe Him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him in the place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms.  Ephesians 1:17-20 NLT

God raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.  Ephesians 2:6 NLT

Only believe.  We sit with Him.  We need to step out with the same authority.

Why?

If Christ be in us (Colossians 1:27) His authority flows through us.  

Act on it.

TRIALS AND TESTS: Morning Manna October 27

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:  1 Peter 4:12 KJV

Don't be afraid of what you are about to suffer. The devil will throw some of you into prison to test you. You will suffer for ten days. But if you remain faithful even when facing death, I will give you the crown of life.  Revelation 2:10 NLT

I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world."  John 16:33 NLT

PRECIOUS TO THE LORD: Morning Manna October 26

 

"If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won't he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn't wander away! In the same way, it is not My heavenly Father's will that even one of these little ones should perish."  Matthew 18:12-14 NLT

O LORD, I have longed for Your rescue, and Your instructions are my delight. Let me live so I can praise You, and may Your regulations help me. I have wandered away like a lost sheep; come and find me, for I have not forgotten Your commands.  Psalms 119:174-176 NLT

Always remember, you are precious to the LORD.

RESCUED: Morning Manna October 25

The LORD reached down from heaven and rescued me; He drew me out of deep waters. He rescued me from my powerful enemies, from those who hated me and were too strong for me. 

They attacked me at a moment when I was in distress, but the LORD supported me. He led me to a place of safety; He rescued me because He delights in me. The LORD rewarded me for doing right; He restored me because of my innocence.  Psalms 18:16-20 NLT

I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.  Psalms 89:1 KJV

Thank you LORD, because You promise to never leave me or forsake me.  Hebrews 13:5
