DID YOU KNOW?
Psalm 90:12 says:
“So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”

But what does it truly mean to number our days?

In Hebrew, the text reads: “Teach us to manah our days.”
The word manah does not simply mean to count. It means to appoint, to assign, and to prepare with purpose.

We see this word clearly illustrated in the life of the prophet Jonah. Jonah sailed from the ancient port of Joppa while intentionally running from God’s plan for his life. Yet throughout the book of Jonah, Scripture tells us that God “manah-ed”—appointed—specific things to redirect him back to divine purpose.

God appointed (manah-ed):

• a fish (Jonah 1:17)
• a worm (Jonah 4:7)
• a wind (Jonah 4:8)

Each was divinely appointed, not random, to align Jonah once again with God’s will.

To number our days, then, is to dedicate and appoint them to God’s purposes.

Don’t let your days determine your life.
Let your life—submitted to God—determine your days.

TODAY: Don’t just let day after day go by… APPOINT them, that every day may become a BLESSING, FULL of LIFE and PURPOSE.
