God's Faithfulness

Daily Bread from Heaven

Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.

Exodus 16:4

· · ·

God promised to rain bread from heaven for Israel, providing a daily portion to test their obedience and trust.

The manna came each morning - no more, no less than needed for that day. God could have provided a week's worth at once, but daily provision required daily dependence. This tested whether Israel would trust God for tomorrow rather than hoarding for security. It's a pattern Jesus echoed in teaching us to pray for daily bread.

Practice receiving today's provision without anxious planning to control tomorrow, trusting God will provide again when you need it.

Provider God, You sent manna daily to teach Your people dependence. Help me receive today's provision with gratitude and trust You for tomorrow without anxious hoarding or fearful controlling. Amen.
