We need to have a new beginning with the Lord every day to “gather the manna”, that is, to enjoy the Lord in a fresh and new way to feed on Him and be nourished with Him in His Word. In the Old Testament – and actually in the entire Bible – the manna was […]
Eating Christ as our Unique Food Displaces the Flesh and Reconstitutes us with Christ
September 17, 2019 by Leave a Comment
By giving His people only manna to eat in the wilderness, God dealt with their flesh and at the same time reconstituted them with the heavenly food; by eating Christ as the unique heavenly food, our flesh is dealt with and displaced, and we are reconstituted with Christ to become the dwelling place of God.

We need to have a Change of Diet to Eat Christ and be Reconstituted with Christ
September 16, 2019 by Leave a Comment
God wants to change our diet to a diet of Christ as the real manna so that we may be reconstituted with Christ and live because of Christ to become God’s dwelling place. God’s goal is to have a dwelling place on earth; this dwelling place is not built with stone or wood but with […]
