Hebrews 9:1-12
The articles and artifacts of the old covenant.
They are all there to point to Jesus who is the minister of a far better covenant.
Jesus, the minister of the New and far better covenant.
v.4, there is the ark, the tablets of the covenant.
Today the urn of manna.
Exodus 16:2-4
The people are wandering in the wilderness and are grumbling becasue of their hunger.
God tells Moses that He is going to rain bread from heaven on them.
One large reason for this is to see God’s provision.
God’s Provision
This was God’s way of providing for His people while they wandered in the desert for 40 years.
For 40 years they ate more than just the manna.
However the manna was a main staple that they ate.
This was a gracious and loving act that God did for the people.
Nehemiah 9:17
We see that the people were stiffnecked, ungrateful, and even idol worshippers when given the chance.
Yet God is gracious and merciful.
Nehemiah 9:20
His mercy is proved that He still gives them food, and water.
They lacked nothing in the wilderness.
The point that God is making, is that He will be their provider.
He will be their sustainer!
Do They Trust God?
Exodus 16:4
The term God uses is will they walk in my law.
This is a test to see if they trust God.
The command God gave was “only gather enough for a day!”
No hording or storing.
This was to see, do they trust God to be their provider, when He says that He will.
Deuteronomy 8:3
The purpose of this was to show them that man doesn’t live by bread alone.
But by every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.
Do We Trust in God?
Are we so fixated on the things of this life, that we aren’t any earthly good?
Jesus says “don’t be anxious about tomorrow, sufficient for the day is it’s own trouble.
Matthew 6:34
Are we anxious over the things that we have no control over?
Do we trust God with them, knowing that as with the Israelites, He cares for us.
He will bring us through whatever turmoil we find ourselves in.
God’s Mercy Is New Daily
We see in Exodus 16:4, God’s mercy in renewed daily.
It’s fresh ever morning.
Jeremiah, after facing all of the suffering he faced.
After seeing Jerusalem destroyed and His people carried off in exile.
He would later be dragged off by his people to Egypt.
He writes:
Lamentations 3:22-24
The mercies of God never cease.
Great is His faithfulness to those who love Him.
The hope of the Israelites wasn’t in going back to Egypt to find food.
It wasn’t in the hope of finding some food in a barren and desolate place.
But God was teaching them, that their hope was in the Lord.
He will provide their needs, and He did with the Manna.
Our hope isn’t in masks, or in a vaccine.
It isn’t in the sway of the correct political powers.
It isn’t in our economy.
Haven’t we learned from the people of old?
OUR HOPE IS IN GOD, IN HIM ALONE!
For He is the provider of His people.
Daily Gather
Exodus 16:21
God provided, but they were commanded to go and get it.
They couldn’t be a sluggard.
For it would melt when the sun got hot.
God provides, but He calls us to action.
Part of that action is realizing that God doesn’t call us to live by bread alone.
Therefore our daily gathering shouldn’t be for just the physical things in this world.
Not By Bread Alone
This life, this world, it isn’t about living for only the physical things.
Matthew 4:2-4
We need to see that the temptations that Jesus faced were the same ones that Isreal faced in the wilderness.
The difference being where Israel had failed, Jesus would succeed.
IF!
This calls into question the last thing that we saw Jesus do in Matthew.
Just prior to this God audibly say “This is my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased.”
Now Satan is trying to get Him to question who He is.
Well surly if you were the son of God, He wouldn’t let you suffer this way!
You must not be the Son of God, or He doesn’t love you!
If you are, end you suffering, you have the power to turn these rocks into bread.
Jesus’ rebuttal.
I know what God has said.
I know I am to trust Him, I know he brought me out here for a reason and He can and has provided food from heaven.
I’m not going to question God, I’m going to trust His word.
For it isn’t just the physical that we live for, but the very word of God that sustains us.
Are we sustained by the bread of this world alone?
How often do we eat?
How often do we take in spiritual food?
Through the bible, prayer, preaching, singing praises.
If Sunday is the only time your being fed, your starving, and don’t even realize it.
We must partake of the bread of life.
Bread Of Life
John 6:32-33
Ah, we see Jesus showing that He fulfilled what the the Manna foreshadowed in the Old Testament.
The manna came down:
Because God is merciful, and good.
To provide sustenance for the people.
To teach people to trust in God.
It was to be gathered daily, and not in a slack or sluggish manner.
The bread of life came down.
