God always provides for his people. In the Old Testament, his people wandered the desert but were given daily physical sustenance from God-manna. And while times have changed, today many of us may find ourselves in a spiritual wilderness, lost and looking for spiritual nourishment. Did you know that even today God provides us with what we need both to survive the dangers of the wilderness and to flourish in our spirits? In Morning Manna, author Francetine Inman-Dennard shares the daily spiritual manna she received from the Lord during her 5:00 a.m. prayer time with God. This manna is easily digestible and well worth eating, because the contents and nutrients are supplements that are necessary for success in all areas of life. Morning Manna will bless anyone's heart who reads it, as the words came straight from the heart of God to these pages.

Manna in the Morning is a collection of devotions written to refresh weary or malnourished Christians who need sustenance from the bread of Heaven. These short devotions, taken from every book of the Bible give Christians on the go a quick but nourishing word for the day. Having a hearty appetite for the Word of God is as essential to our spiritual walk as the manna the Israelites gathered each morning was for the nourishment of their physical bodies, during their journey through the desert. Daily "Manna Moments" prompt the reader into a time of reflection and application of the Word. The tasty morsels of Scripture in this book are the result of the author's application of Romans 15:4 which says: Everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.
Living Confidently in God's Unfailing Love Grace is amazing because it is God's provision for when we fall short of His standards. Unfortunately, too many of us embrace grace for our salvation but then leave it behind in our everyday lives. We base our relationship with God on our performance rather than on His love for us, even when we intuitively know that our performance cannot earn us the love we so desperately crave. Isn't it time to stop trying to measure up and begin accepting the transforming power of God's grace? The product of more than ten years of Bible study, Navigator author Jerry Bridges's Transforming Grace is a fountainhead of inspiration and renewal that will show you just how inexhaustible and generous God's grace really is. This edition includes the full study guide, which was formerly available as a separate product (ISBN 9781600063046).

March 2017 Day 2DODGE THE PROCESS! MISS THE PRODUCT!BASIC SCRIPTURE:HABAKKUK 2: 1- 4Patience is profitable. It's a lost virtue in our culture today. There is so much craze for wealth because people are no more patient. Armed robbery, prostitution or corruption, etc, for example, are the consequences of impatience. The year 2017 is still young! Prayers are being prayed. Planning is going on. There is excitement in the spirit world because the word "EVIDENCE" is being announced worldwide over divine megaphones. But you must realize that there is always a time lag between the day you plant pineapple or apple seed and when you actually harvest the fruit from the full-grown tree. Every divine purpose delivers in stages and there is a time for every purpose on this earth including your own. Don't cage or hinder your destiny by seeking for shortcuts. If you dodge the process - patience, you will miss the product. Habakkuk 2:3 declares: "for the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end, it shall speak and not lie. Though it tarry (as the year progresses), wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry." God is bigger than our biggest plans. He is working on your behalf. You need patience to obtain this year. Don't compare yourself with others or look around negatively. God's calendar for you is not the same with your next-door neighbour. Patience mixed with praise and worship will shield you from avoidable mistakes. Meditate also, on Micah 7:7! Your year will end in peace and glory and there shall be EVIDENCE that you serve a living God. The fullness of any vision speaks only at the end. Wait! You will never end up in shame! Amen!
