Spiritual Food

"…all ate the same spiritual food…" (1 Cor 10:3)
The spiritual food, or manna, may be right before us but we eat it as if it is merely physical. Not many of us realize the spiritual aspect of our daily circumstances. We chew physically but miss the spiritual experience while going through the wilderness. The Israelites all had manna in the wilderness and ate of it, but only a few realized what was spiritually happening. Only two entered into the promised land.

Joshua and Caleb had the "hidden manna" (Rev 2:17; Ex 16:33) experience while they went through the wilderness. They gained the real value of the daily bread by discovering that "man does not live by bread alone, but by everything that goes out of the mouth of the Lord" (Deut 8:3). By this daily experience of spiritual food, they recognized every life situation as "food" for spiritual life and growth.

When at first the Israelites were called to enter into the land of Canaan they were all afraid of the giants of the land. But Joshua and Caleb said, "these giants shall be our food, fear them not"! (Num 13-14)

What has been our complaint may really be our food.

Lord, what is my hidden spiritual food today?

God Has Spoken Series

Question: Where can I get the audio messages of Stephen Kaung's God Has Spoken series? If I could recommend only one book or series by Stephen Kaung it would be his God Has Spoken series. He shared a message for each book of the Bible, giving a simple overview and revealing the way to find Christ as you read. It is not only his classic set but it's His way with the Scriptures. Our brother could always find Christ and find Him as He's meant to be found. For a new believer and an old believer, this is the first set to have as guide through the Bible and a reference set to go back to later on.  Below are links to each of the original messages.   Old Testament  Introduction to the Old Testament Genesis -The Will of God Exodus -The Works of God Leviticus - The Ways of God Numbers -The Walk of God Deuteronomy - The Word of God Joshua - Possessing the Land   Judges - Possessing all the Possessions Ruth - Recovery of the Inheritance I Samuel - Epoch-...

Heart Sharing (with Spanish Translation): San José, Costa Rica August 2025

Note: These two messages are part of a larger series a few of us shared. (I'll add a playlist for that once I have it). These two can stand alone as well. The first crowd was there on a Wed night for a weekly worship time. The second crowd was a set of those serving in the church (mostly).
