names of God: Manna

names of God: Manna by ric gustafson


Exodus 16:31- ' And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna'


This term refers to God the Father. The original meaning of the term Manna is not known. The Israelites were starving in the desert. God sent them a special bread that appeared like dew every morning and evaporated in the sun. It usually did not last longer than a day unless it was prepared for the Sabbath. Some people took it for granted but there was always enough to feed the people.
God is not only food for our stomachs but more important it is food for our souls.
