“Bread From Heaven”
Sunday, October 12, 2025Key Verse
“And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.” John 6:35
Text —John 6:30-35
Message
“Guide me, O thou great Jehovah!
Pilgrim thro’ this barren land;
I am weak, but thou art mighty,
Hold me with thy pow’ful hand;
Bread of heaven! (2ce)
Feed me now and ever more (2ce)”
The lyrics of this gospel hymn is a prayer that everyone ought to take to heart. Jesus is the only Bread from heaven. He is the only begotten Son of God Who came from heaven to die for our sins and feed us with the word of God. When Jesus came to earth He said “I am the bread of life. He that cometh to me shall never hunger” (John 6:35).
What Jesus was saying is that we can only have eternal life by letting Him live in us and become a part of us like the bread we eat. When Jesus comes to live in us, He fills the emptiness inside us. And when we are filled with His goodness, we become great influence and ambassadors of good things in our community. Then when He comes, we shall be qualified to go with Him.
