Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Fakunle Emmanuel Week 41, Day 1, Sunday, 10th October 2021. TOPIC: WHO IS JESUS 1:

“I am the bread of life.”

Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour was sent to this world to close the gap between mankind and God. He came in the nature of man, lived as men, ate and drank what men lived by till His time to fulfill His assignment on earth. He lived and introduced Himself in different forms while on earth. 

This week, we will be studying of His personality, First, as The Bread Of Life. In our world, bread signifies what we eat for sustenance. Biologically, we need food for growth and life, without this, we cannot live healthy and we need it daily. The Bible also confirm this in 1 Corinth. 6:13 by Apostle Paul, 

“Foods for the  stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them…”. Our stomach is meant for the food. No matter how you fast you must come back to eat. Likewise, Spiritually, we need the bread of life to feed on, spiritually, which we can only receive from Jesus Christ our saviour. Jesus introducing Himself as the bread of life means, what we need to live on spiritually is Jesus, the bread of life. We need the physical bread (food) everyday, likewise, to be healthy spiritually, we need the bread of life day and night. This bread of Life – Jesus Christ, give life eternal to any who eats of it.

John 6:49-51

49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread  that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

Jesus is the bread of life and we all need Him to live because without Him, we will remain Spiritual Kwashiorkor. How often to do we eat the bread of life? Are you eating of it at all? Were you able to eat of Him today? Without Him, we can do nothing. He is available to those who desire to eat of Him.
