- Sermon Synopsis
The
bread and fruit on the table looked delicious, except you could not find
a trace of that wonderful aroma of fresh baked bread. It was
bread, but only a decoration, covered in varnish and plastic fruit that
looked very real. Our minds and bodies often want what we can see,
but it may not be what we need or what is genuine food.
The common trend
is to desire that which satisfies for the moment, and even the Hebrew
people wished for bread to eat in their desert sojourn of exodus.
Instead of the common bread, God gave them manna. The bread of
heaven, good for just the immediate day, came down like dew, tasted
sweet, without adding sugars and was a source of lasting nutrition.
But, the people were not satisfied with what God provided, because it
did not last and it made them go each day before the Lord.
Jesus came to
bring another bread, the bread of life. Though it came from
heaven, like a manna, it was not something to be consumed. This
manna would last for eternity, and though we would not need its
provision each day, it lasted for all of our days as we would daily
partake of His goodness.
