Manna

Good Sunday Morning.

Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.  I hope everyone has a blessed and wonder-filled day in the Holy Ghost!

This Morning as I dwelt on the blessings of Our Lord. I began to think on Manna from above and how God continued to bless His People evening while exiled in the wilderness.  Twice daily He sent a food source, Manna early, quail late.  There’s another message right there.

But focusing on Manna, Exodus 16:15 says “And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.”

Manna literally translates to a whatness, so it basically means “what is it?”
What is it? You ask. It’s God’s goodness.

God laid down the ground rules for it. Think about these three conditions that God placed on His people regarding Manna.

  • Its there for you in the morning
  • Gather all you want for today
  • You can’t stock it up, it has no shelf life

Its there for you in the morning, but you have to go get it
Psalms 63:1 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

God delights in being your First thought of the day. Seek Him early, Seek him throughout the day. He is the Alpha and Omega, He wants to be your first and last. He wants to be in communion with us early and help us get our minds right for the day ahead.

Early I will seek Thee. It takes an effort on our part.

Gather all you wish for today, there’s plenty to go around
Psalms 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.
There’s plenty of God. He does not run out of blessings. He wants to give us the desires of our hearts. But he also wants the desires of our hearts to align with his will.  Seek Him in His Word and in Prayer to become filled afresh every day and get your heart in tune with His.

The Blessings are yours for the taking.

You can’t stock up, it has no shelf life
As with Manna, there is plenty of His Spirit to fill you for today. And there’ll be plenty to fill you again tomorrow. But there is no shelf life on a prayer-life, you need to refill every day.
When manna was left over to the next day, the bible says it bred worms and stank.
Don’t try to make it on yesterday’s manna. Your attitude will be the testimony of your devotional life. Let God refill you every day anew. Or you spirit might be what’s stinking.

Gather your manna early today, gather plenty, gather more tomorrow.

Have a Blessed Day

I'm a Husband, Father, Pawpaw and Pastor. I love spending time with my grand-buddies. A minister since 1988, I have been blessed to work in several churches around the U.S and currently am blessed to pastor an Awesome Church. I've also had the pleasure of ministering in faraway places while traveling for work. Some of my greatest honors have been the relationships I gained with several of the modern-day Heros of the Faith, the ministering families all around the world. Several years ago I started working with leather as a means to fight boredom while working in remote areas. It swiftly became a passion that I want to share as well. My plan is to keep spreading God's Love through the written and preached word, through walking the walk, and to keep making cool stuff along the way. Check that out at whisper_n_jack on Instagram
