Our Daily Bread

"Give us this day our daily bread." Mat 6:11.

Do you still pray like this?
Are you now so rich you don't need this "daily" bread?
Is this prayer outdated because you're now so very rich? Rich in what? Material things? But what about in the rhema and revelation of His Word/Himself?

Christ in Mat 6:9-11 said;
"After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread." Christ said to ask/pray our Father in heaven,each day for our daily bread,because there is a fresh provision/bread for each day we breathe in!

So now, what is this bread?
To the people Christ was teaching,bread meant food:something eaten to sustain life.Nutrition for physical strength of the body.They also remembered the manna God gave for 40yrs to their fore-fathers in the wilderness.They knew that without food man cannot survive for long.Man's body will die after a prolonged period without food or bread.They see God as a Provider and Sustainer of life.
But to many of us today,especially in "advanced" nations,bread is merely a type of food we buy at will,without the need for God.That is all we think of when we hear "bread". We then wonder why we need God on a daily basis.

The Word of God is the Bread of life, and it's Christ.
"And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst." John 6:35. Christ is this Bread we Must have daily.He is the daily "manna" from our Father in heaven.We can't go on in life without Him.There is no life in anybody without Christ.

What has He given you today? There is a fresh provision of rhema (or manna) for our lives on a day-by-day basis designed for a life of blessings."They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lam 3:23.

So however Christ commune with you, keep that appointment with Him daily.Shalom.
