Hebrews (Program #60) – Enjoying the Hidden Manna in the Presence of God

In your experience, does it seem that God is far off from you? That you really love Him and want to serve Him, but it seems you’re not as close to Him as you would like to be. If so, today’s message will help you draw near to God.

We are going to focus on our program today on eating the spiritual food.  The spiritual food is a concept that most of the Christians hold.  But you heard varying interpretations of what that really is.  What is it to feast upon the Lord or to eat Christ as our spiritual food?

Hebrews (Program #59) – The Manna in the Golden Pot

In the Old Testament, manna was something given by God to his people openly and freely. But, a small portion of this manna was offered by the priest back to God and hidden within a golden pot in the Holy of Holies. This hidden portion in the golden pot represents something so rich in experience.

Ezekiel (Program #20) – The Temple and Side Chambers

The gospel of John gives us the unforgettable picture of Jesus coming into the temple in Jerusalem. And in the display of the most righteous anger, the sight of God’s house being turned into a place of merchandise and commerce, He cleanses the temple – overturning the tables and chasing the peddlers away. Immediately following this comes a profound exchange between the Lord Jesus and the religionists. In John 2:18-21, “The Jews then answered and said to Him, What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things? Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then the Jews said, This temple was built in forty-six years, and You will raise it up in three days? But He spoke of the a temple of His body.” What makes this word so meaningful is that John clearly identifies Jesus as the real temple, the real house of God. This means even as we consider the temple in the Old Testament such as in Ezekiel’s great vision in chapters 40 to 48, we must realize that this is a type of the Lord Jesus Himself and of the church, the New Testament, the enlargement of God’s house.

Hebrews (Program #58) – Eating and Manna

Some of the Lord’s promises to His faithful overcomers are quite regal and heavenly. But among the final promises is that His overcomers would eat of the hidden manna. This hidden portion is spoken of in Hebrews chapter 9. And if you have never considered such a matter, you will be treated to a feast in today’s life study of the Bible.

Of all the heavenly things that we have seen and discussed in this life study of Hebrew, one of the real treasures without question has to do with something so simple, and so small as a round wafer that we eat called Manna.

Ezekiel (Program #18) – The Outer and Inner Courts

In the temple in Ezekiel, there are two courts – the outer court and the inner court. Originally, we were all wandering outside the wall, in the world and apart from God’s purpose. But praise the Lord, we pass through Christ as the gate and by the mercy of the Lord, we began to enjoy Christ in the outer court of God’s temple. Eventually, we pass through Christ again into the inner court. And that’s when the service and ministry to God begins.
