This Is a Brand New Day: Daily Mercy, Fresh Grace, and God’s Abundant Provision

 

This Is a Brand New Day

Sunrise over open Bible symbolizing God’s daily mercy and fresh grace


"Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits, even the God of our salvation."  Psalm 68:19

   This is a brand new day. As Psalm 68:19 declares, the Lord daily loads us with benefits. Yesterday has passed, and it cannot be retrieved or undone. Today, however, offers a fresh beginning. Morning by morning, new mercies appear, reflecting the steadfast love of the Lord that never ceases and mercies that are new every morning.

   Firstly, today is filled with new mercy and fresh grace. God has extended forgiveness for whatever occurred yesterday, providing a clean slate and a fresh opportunity. This day invites a new beginning, embraced by fresh grace and divine favor. Yesterday is gone along with last week, last month, last year, or even decades past.

"Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." – Philippians 3:13–14

   Bring yourself fully into the present moment. This is the day the Lord has made; rejoice and be glad in it. Each day carries fresh mercy and renewed grace designed specifically for today.

   Secondly, every day is loaded with benefits, blessings, and lessons. The Lord does not recycle yesterday’s blessings. New blessings are assigned to this day. When you become fully present, the benefits and lessons God has prepared become available to receive.

   Upon waking, this day is already equipped with everything you need. You are exactly where you are meant to be spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically, financially, educationally, and vocationally. Take a deep breath. Release distractions. Embrace what God has planted in today for discovery, growth, and gratitude.

   Thirdly, God provides daily bread. As we pray, “Give us this day our daily bread,” we are reminded that God supplies everything required to walk through today wisdom, strength, understanding, and provision. He supplies all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

   Just as the children of Israel received fresh manna each day in the wilderness, God still provides fresh provision daily. Yesterday’s supply will not sustain today’s journey. Trust Him for today’s bread, knowing that His provision is abundant and sufficient.

   Welcome to today. Every day brings new mercies, fresh grace, blessings, benefits, lessons, and daily provision. Embrace this present day fully. Let go of the past, receive what God is offering now, and walk forward with gratitude and trust in His faithful supply.

   If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs the reminder that today is a gift from God.

📖 Reflection: What would change in your heart and mindset if you truly embraced today as God’s freshly prepared gift for you?

💡 Action Step: Begin your day with gratitude. Thank God aloud for today’s mercy, grace, and provision, and choose to live fully present.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
