- Provision and Bread
Psalm 132:15
I will abundantly bless her provision:
I will satisfy her poor with bread.
The “her” that will be blessed and satisfied is Zion; Zion is the metaphor for the invisible church made up of all believers in Christ. The invisible church exists in the hearts of believers; it is where God dwells on the earth. This Zion, this Church, these believers enjoy the unconditional promise of abundant blessing of provision and those in need will be satisfied with bread. Inasmuch as Zion is spiritual and invisible to the physical world, so also the provision and bread is spiritual. Jesus and the NT talk much of the abundant provision and satisfying bread that comes to believers in the Messiah in the Messianic Age. Jesus exhibits this fulfilled promise extravagantly and beyond a doubt in the feeding of the 5,000 and the turning of water into wine.
With the coming of the Messiah to earth and the invasion of the Kingdom of God into this world in the person of Jesus fertility, growth and abundance shall come with it. God provides everything that your soul needs for a rich life and a full enjoyment of God, and that’s a promise. We do not always use the eyes of faith to see the abundant spiritual provision. Listen to the Gospel and hear the Word by opening the eyes and ears of the heart to appropriate the promises that are clearly given.
