A Portrait of The Bread
He spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to give light in the night. 40 The people
asked, and He brought quail, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven. 41 He
opened the rock, and water gushed out; It ran in the dry places like a river. Psalms
105:39-41
(John 6:26-27)
"Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting
life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on
Him." John 6:27
"Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, 'He gave them bread from
heaven to eat.'” John 6:31 (NKJV)
Because they did not believe in God, and did not trust in His salvation. 23 Yet He had
commanded the clouds above, and opened the doors of heaven, 24 Had rained down
manna on them to eat, and given them of the bread of heaven. 25 Men ate angels' food;
He sent them food to the full. 26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heavens; and by
His power He brought in the south wind. 27 He also rained meat on them like the dust,
Feathered fowl like the sand of the seas; 28 And He let them fall in the midst of their
camp, All around their dwellings. 29 So they ate and were well filled, For He gave them
their own desire. Psalms 78:22-29 (NKJV)
the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these
stones become bread." 4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'" Matthew 4:3-4
Give us this day our daily bread. Matthew 6:11
Matthew 7:9 2. ...if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
"When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments
did you take up?" They said to Him, "Twelve." 20 "Also, when I broke the seven for the
four thousand, how many large baskets full of fragments did you take up?" And they
said, "Seven." 21 So He said to them, "How is it you do not understand?" Mark 8:19-21
(NKJV)
Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply
the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness, 2 Corinthians
9:10 (NKJV)
He answered and said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the
little dogs." Matthew 15:26 (NKJV)
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: 3 Who forgives all your
iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Psalms 103:2-3
"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." John 6:50-51
"It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are
spirit, and they are life.
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The
bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 17 For we, though
many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread. 1 Corinthians
10:16-17
