Hidden Manna

June 25 – Hidden Manna Devotional

To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna (Rev. 2:17).

When I first began my journey as a New Christian, I believed that a remarkable spiritual gift would unlock God’s power in me. I yearned for signs and wonders. Indeed, God graciously allowed me to witness miracles in various settings. But I also saw those who performed them later return to sin. Through this, I learned that God rarely works through flashy displays—His work is often quiet and unseen, nourishing us deep within.

Many believers mistake spiritual strength for church attendance or acquiring knowledge. They feel uplifted by sermons, fellowship, and Bible study, yet remain spiritually hungry. True nourishment comes from the hidden manna—Jesus Himself. When we spend time alone with Him, in silence and worship, He becomes our spiritual sustenance.

Ask yourself: Do you approach God only with your list of needs? Or do you pause to praise, worship, adore, and magnify His Name? Eating the hidden manna means filling your soul with His presence, not just consuming information. You may memorize verses or fast for days, yet feel empty—because you missed the secret of feeding on Christ Himself.

When I relied purely on Bible knowledge, I felt spiritually starved. But when I learned to adore the Living Bread, my soul was fully satisfied. The hidden manna isn’t knowledge—it’s relationship: intimacy with Jesus in quiet worship and adoration.

Finding hope in the promise of John 15:7

Finding hope in the promise of John 15:7

“…ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” — John 15:7 (KJV)

In the time of exile, King Cyrus made an open decree allowing the Jews to return to Jerusalem. But many chose to stay back. Why? They didn’t believe the promise. In the same way, if we as believers fail to trust and claim the promises of God, we prevent Him from working in and through our lives.

Many today claim to believe in the Bible, yet do not follow its teachings. They are drawn more toward man-made rituals and religious customs than obedience to God’s Word. They say they trust in God, but when needs arise—especially financial—they turn to people instead of trusting the Lord fully.

It is especially noticeable during healing campaigns. People claim faith for healing, yet when it comes to finances, they seek man’s help. But the same God who heals is also our Provider. He is more than able to meet all our needs—spiritual, physical, and financial.

The key lies in obedience. God works on behalf of those who obey Him completely and walk by His Word. According to John 15:7, if we abide in Jesus—allowing Him to lead every part of our life—then His promise will come to pass:
“…ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.”

Nehemiah is a beautiful example. He believed God, stepped out in obedience, and saw the hand of God move in his favor.
