What is Fresh Manna?

I received the following from a class I took at church taught by Pastor Daniel.

What is Manna and what is it not?

• Manna is scripture. It is the Word of God found in the Bible. Old Testament or New Testament, it is all profitable.
• Manna is not a nicely written devotional, poem, or prophecy.

What does Manna look like?

• Manna is a verse, part of a verse, or a few verses long. It is a promise or thought that can sum up your time in the Word. You should be able to commit it somewhat to memory and share it with someone in a few minutes.
• Manna is not a chapter or two of scripture.
• Manna typically focuses on a promise. What has He done for you? What is He saying He will do for you? Who are you in Him? What can you expect in faith from what you've read?

How do I find Manna?

• Reading the Word. You condense what you've read down to a verse or two. Sometimes Manna just jumps right off the page!
• You may spend hours in the Word or you may only have time to spend a few minutes. In either case, take a verse as your manna.

What do I do with my Manna?

• Meditate on it. To do this, you must remember it --- so you may want to write it down and carry it with you.
• Confess it. Say it.
• Pray it --- over yourself, your family, your situation.
• Share it. Your manna is meant to be a word in season for someone who is weary.
• Journal it. (optional)

Fresh Manna is a concept that one of the pastors at our church came up with. It is based on the story of the Israelites where God gave them manna from heaven to eat. He told them to only collect what they would need for that day. If they collected more than they needed, it became rotten. Just as the Israelites needed manna from heaven each day to sustain them physically, we need manna from heaven each day to sustain us spiritually. We MUST feed our spirit man.
