“And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.”
Exodus 16:35 KJV
When Israel grumbled for food, God provided manna from heaven, and they ate this for forty years till they came to Canaan. God commanded them to keep a portion of manna in the ark of the covenant for them and succeeding generations to remember. Manna provided the wandering Israelites with all the nutrition and because of this miracle food they were without sickness or weakness in all that time. Jesus is the Bread of God, the Bread of Life, the Bread from heaven. He not only meets our physical needs but feeds our spirit. The manna eating generation of wandering Israelites died but if anyone eats of the Living Bread from heaven will live forever. The Bread of Life is surplus, overflowing and abundant, we will never hunger or thirst. Whoever has Jesus, has this Life, energising us with vitality, strength, victory, power and all we need in life. Life in Christ exalts us from servanthood to sonship. The more we feed on the Word, which is spirit and life, the more Christ’s Life is manifested in us, and we are ever fresh, vibrant and perfectly nurtured in Him. Amen!
