Rejoice Daily Manna - Archive : Saturday, August 23, 2014

Dear Friend,

If you do not already have a habit of gathering daily manna the first thing in the morning (we can look at the example given to us in Exodus 16 and find the pattern for collecting daily manna), make it a habit. Establish your life and your schedule to allow you the necessary time to do your daily collection first thing every morning to give you the strength to make it through the day. And remember that today’s manna will not be sufficient for tomorrow; tomorrow’s manna must be collected tomorrow morning.

Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. —1 Peter 5:7

The psalmist wrote, “Be still, and know that I am God” (46:10). Paul exhorted the Philippians to “be anxious for nothing” (Phil. 4:6). And Peter instructed his readers to cast all their cares on God (1 Peter 5:7).

How can someone stop worrying and be “still”?

Only through prayer and trust in the loving God (Phil. 4:6-7). Those who cast their cares on Him can set aside the noise and confusion, ambitions and striving-s, and enter into the peace of God (v.7).This doesn’t mean that those who are “still” before the Lord will escape life’s dangers and dilemmas, but it does mean they will have the ability to live with tranquility in the midst of them. Though trouble may remain, the confusion, apprehension, and despair begin to fade away. Such people show poise under pressure; they’re unshaken by life’s alarms; they radiate peace wherever they go.

If you've never acquainted yourself with the depths of God’s love and His call for you to live in that love, your life will be filled with anxiety and cares. You’ll often be fretful and restless—always looking for that illusive “something more.” When you learn to turn your confidence toward God and cast your cares on Him, you can be calm in the midst of life’s demands.

" I love to dwell upon the thought

That Jesus cares for me,

It matters not what life may bring—

He loves me tenderly ". —Adams

Prayer:

Loving God. Thank You for making Yourself visible in the person of Jesus Christ;

and that I have encountered Him.

Forgive me for not making Him known more widely, or for allowing my friends

and colleagues to believe that He can only be found in churches.

Please help me to invite the people I know and meet to explore who Jesus is;

by reading the Bible together with them, praying for them and sharing my confidence in Jesus with them.

In His Name. Amen.

Have a blessed day!
