Morning Manna by Rufus Parker - 2026 June 27

What A Savior

“And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.” (Mark 1:40-42)

Today’s Morsel: From the raising of Lazarus from the dead, to the healing of the blind man at the pool of Silom, to the raising of the woman of Nain’s dead son, to the deliverance of the Syrophoenicians woman’s daughter possessed with demons, to the setting free the man living in the tombs possessed with thousands of demons, to turning the water into wine, at the wedding in Cana of Galilee to prevent embarrassment, to healing of the lame man at the pool of Bethesda, to feeding the multitude with five loaves and two fish, to the healing of the lepers, there was only one who was willing to give His life on a cross for our sins. There has never been one so loving, compassionate, and caring as our dear Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. As the song writer said, O what a Savior.

Sing: O, what a Savior, O, hallelujah, His heart was broken on Calvary. His hands were nail scarred, His side was riven, He gave His lifeblood for even me.

Thought For Today: I love you, that’s what Calvary says.

About Morning Manna

And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God. And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host. And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground. And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat (Exodus 16:10-15).

“Morning Manna” is a short daily devotion which began in 2002, with just a short note of encouragement to a friend who was facing difficulties at the time. Through their response, I was encouraged to begin a daily devotion via email and send it to people who asked to be put on the distribution list. It is now reaching around the globe. Its birth came about during Morning Prayer. The Lord revealed to me that I should forward my friend a word of encouragement, since it is through patience and comfort of the scripture that we find hope. Thus, I forwarded him the words the Lord had given to me for him, and he forwarded it on to someone else who was having difficulties in their life as well, and thus the original list began.

The goal of “Morning Manna” is to provide people with a quick, thought provoking Word from the Lord, as well as provide encouragement from His Word that can help them through the day and during unexpected trails and circumstances in their daily lives.

Several years ago, Jesus moved on my heart to start writing daily devotions; thus began “Morning Manna”. Today, many people are receiving these daily devotions and many of these people are forwarding it on to their family and friends. It is my hope to encourage even more through posting the devotions to this blog-page.

I pray that you, too, will enjoy reading the manna from this site.
