Good Morning Sunshine! God Is A Provider!

Exodus 16:13-16 NKJ ~ “So it was that quails came up at evening and covered the camp, and in the morning the dew lay all around the camp. [14] And when the layer of dew lifted, there, on the surface of the wilderness, was a small round substance, as fine as frost on the ground. [15] So when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, “This is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat. [16] This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: ‘Let every man gather it according to each one’s need, one omer for each person, according to the number of persons; let every man take for those who are in his tent.”

God is your provider! He provided food for His people when they were in the wilderness and hungry. Despite the people’s lack of appreciation and faith, God was still faithful. Despite your lack of appreciation and faithfulness, God is still Faithful to you! He sent bread from heaven in the morning, and quail from heaven in the evening to make sure that they ate! God is feeding you morning and evening! He sent fresh manna straight from heaven to them and He made sure it was enough to fill you up! God does not feed His children leftovers! Stop trying to live off of leftovers, they aren’t any good! God wants you to have fresh food daily! This is proof to you that God is a sustainer for you and everything that He has supersedes the natural processes and natural things in this world that you run after!

God is your provider and your ultimate source of sustenance! This should teach you that you don’t live on bread alone but on every word that comes from His mouth, your sustenance that comes from God is greater than even the bread that you eat in your home, and even that is a gift from God! You need to recognize your gifts! The Word of God is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat! He is your sustainer and every good and perfect gift that you have comes from Him. This is why you should bow your head in prayer before you eat a morsel of food! Be grateful and thankful that you have something to eat! A grateful heart can realize that if it had not been for the Lord, there is no way you would have the bread that you are eating right now unless God had provided it!

Can you stop right here and Thank God! Thank Him that you have food for both your physical and spiritual needs! The sustenance that you are going to enjoy today isn’t going to come from your breakfast, lunch or dinner; your ultimate source of sustenance comes from God and Him alone! The children gathered the fresh manna and grinned it like grain and made it into sweet tasting pancakes. It was just what they needed to satisfy their natural hunger.  In the book of John 6, Jesus compares himself to manna. You do know that Jesus is your daily bread who satisfies your eternal and spiritual needs daily! I am the bread of life. [49] Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and are dead. [50] This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. [51] I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.” John 6:48-51!

Today, I want you to look Godward for your daily bread, for it will point you toward the One who is “the true bread from heaven”, “the bread of life” (John 6:32, 35), the One that can provide for you in every area of your life!

Let’s Pray:
