🌸 3. “Remember the Manna”

📖 Today’s Scripture:

“Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end.”

—Deuteronomy 8:16 (KJV)

📚 Context:

Moses is reminding Israel of how God provided for them supernaturally in the wilderness with manna from heaven—bread no one had ever seen before. It was a daily miracle for 40 years meant to teach dependence and gratitude.

💬 Reflection:

Sometimes we’re so focused on what’s next that we forget to honor what God has already done. Israel was headed to a land flowing with milk and honey, but God wanted them to never forget the wilderness—because that’s where they learned who He was. The manna wasn’t glamorous. It was daily. Ordinary looking. Humbling. But it was miraculous provision that kept them alive when they had nothing else.

Gratitude grows deeper when you learn to thank God for the ordinary supernatural—the quiet ways He sustains you, feeds your hope, and covers your needs without fanfare. Don’t despise small beginnings or humble seasons. Those are the places God proves Himself faithful. Remember the manna so you don’t lose perspective when the blessings multiply. The God of more is also the God of just enough—and both are equally miraculous.

🙏🏽 Prayer:

Lord, remind me daily of the manna—the ways You’ve provided and carried me. Let gratitude shape my perspective and prepare me for what You’ll do next. Thank You for being my source. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
