"Manna from Heaven" by Angela Charles is a beautiful reminder of God's faithfulness and encourages us to stand firm in every trial or challenge we may face. Angela highlights that "despite how difficult times may get, victory is the Lord's, and our enemy is defeated!"
The lyrics of the song are filled with examples of this confidence: "When water's deep and I can't stand // You are my mountain, God, You are my land." It's a reminder that even when we surrender, "When giving up, I lift my hands," God remains unshakable. The song recalls some of the miracles: "You sent Manna from Heaven // You split the Red Sea // You fed the 5000," and shows how this applies to us, "I know you won't forget me." As we have seen in the past and in the present, God provides and protects when we place our trust in Him and follow His lead.
God knows exactly where we are and what we are going through: "In darkest times You call my name // You are my pillar, Lord, You stay the same." He doesn't leave our side. We are given spiritual authority in His name: "Spirit of Lies, and fear, I'm the head and not the tail!" He gives us power to resist lies and fear and walk with Him in victory.
This song has such an important message for each of us! The uplifting tone and scriptural depth of the lyrics are not just for when we're having doubts about God's presence or power. The song also helps to create a mindset that keeps us standing when our faith is under attack. May this song remind you that He's always on your side and within reach.
