Good Treasure & Happy New Year! (1/1-5)

01-05 Jan 2016 - Good Treasure – Manna by Dorothy
"The Lord shall open unto thee good treasure." Deut. 28:12a

Moses was giving his last speech to the newest generation. They had come to the end of their 40 years of wandering and they were now ready to enter the Promise Land. Moses said, "The Lord will open up the heavenly storehouse so that the skies send rain on your land at the right time, and He will bless... you" Deut. 28:12ab New Century Version.

The new generation had been wandering in the desert and when they hear "rain" from "treasure"? That was new to them. All they had seen was their daily manna to eat except Sabbath Day. So now they were called to trust God's Promise by faith they had not seen yet. For them, that was a big daring step to put their faith in God. And Israel became a nation.

Are we ready to enter the New Year of 2016 with “God’s Promise Land of Healing Manna and to meet our needs?” I say, “Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Heb. 4:16. Yes, let us come boldly unto God’s grace and His healing power.

The Lord is not slack concerning His promises. God is not slack, taking His sweet time. God has a plan and He is very patience, working on us to come into the likeness of Christ. One of the character of Christ is longsuffering in time of His great pain through stripes and through being nailed to the cross.

We are under God’s grace and if you felt like you had been wandering through the desert for a long time. Good news … The Lord shall open unto you His good treasure. Let us visualize that God will open up His heavenly storehouse that He will rain His blessings upon us every day. Why? Because His mercy is new every morning.

So let us trust God today! AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
