The manna is a picture of
the provision of God.
Normally, when people eat
a balanced evening meal, it includes vegetables. Those vegetables will have been purchased at
a grocery store. Of course, a grocery
store bought the vegetables from someone who farmed and harvested them. The farmer had those vegetables to sell
because he planted seeds in the ground.
The land in which the seed was planted was also supported by both rain
and sunshine. Rain and sunshine are
dependent on heaven.
Rain from heaven must come
down upon the land in which the seed has been planted – so the fruit and
vegetable can sprout, so the farmer can deliver it to the grocery store, so
that we can pick it up when we go shopping, so that we can have a nice evening
meal. If a person gets stuck
appreciating the grocery store, then they’ve missed the source.
The grocery store is
simply the mechanism of delivery. Now,
if God stops the sunshine and rain, stops the replication of the seed, or does
not allow the land to be fruitful, then there is no trip to the grocery store.
The Tabernacle reminds us that our God will supply all of our needs according to His riches. Amen!
What to do:
✞ Thank God for His
provision in your life.
