DON'T SLEEP IN & MISS OUT!

Thankful Thursday: DON'T SLEEP IN & MISS OUT!!! Waking up early powers up my day!

Why would I even begin to think that getting up early actually gives me more power; more drive; more enthusiasm; stamina; courage; boldness and focus?

Read the story in Exodus chapter 16 of "The Bread from Heaven", the Manna that fell from Heaven which appeared early each morning when the Dew lifted (verse 14). Each one of God's children was to gather ALL THAT THEY HAD NEED OF, and this Bread from Heaven would sustain them throughout the entire day. Now, we must understand that the Manna was only supplied in the early morning and would dry up and spoil if not consumed during that day. If you slept too long, the Manna would be no more for that day...it must be gathered in the early morning hours.

So it is still to this day that we are fed the spiritual "Bread from Heaven" early each morning and we must understand that we are to feed to we are FULL each day and we will be sustained until we are replenished early the next morning. This spiritual nourishment is endless and necessary for our lives! God's Word says that man shall not live on bread (physical nourishment) alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4).

I'm THANKFUL to read God's Word, meditate on God's Word, pray God's Word and then share God's Word...early every morning!

The Bible says this about the people and the Manna, "So they gathered it every morning, every man according to his need. And when the sun became hot, it melted." (Exodus 16:21 NKJV)

DON'T SLEEP IN & MISS OUT...Instead of grumbling about how early you woke up, give thanks and get fed!
